Love One Another

President Thomas S. Monson

"Mother Teresa, a Catholic nun who worked among the poor in India most of her life, spoke this profound truth: 'If you judge people, you have no time to love them.' The Savior has admonished, 'This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.' I ask: can we love one another, as the Savior commanded, if we judge each other? And I answer—with Mother Teresa: no, we cannot."

President Thomas S. Monson, "Charity Never Faileth," Liahona and Ensign, Nov. 2010, 124.

He heals us the same way He healed the Israelites of serpent bites. It is "the pleasing word of God … which healeth the wounded soul," and it is "with his stripes [that] we are healed."

The healing power of God is magnificent, profound, and beautiful. I thank Him for His mercy, His love, and His miraculous heavenly healing.
