Prayer

—Neil L. Andersen, "It's a Miracle"

Topics: Service, Family, Prayer, Missionary Work, Prophetic Messages"Often when we pray for help with a significant matter, Heavenly Father will give us gentle promptings that require us to think, exercise faith, work, at times struggle, then act. It is a step-by-step process that enables us to discern inspired answers."
—Richard G. Scott, "How to Pray and Seek Answers", New Era, July 2012
Topics: Prayer"I encourage you to take time each week to be by yourself, away from television and the crowd. Have your scriptures with you and as you read, ponder, and pray, take an honest look at your life. Evaluate where you stand with the promises you have made with Heavenly Father. If you have a problem, talk it over with the Lord in earnest and humble prayer."
—M. Russell Ballard, "Keeping Covenants", Ensign and Liahona, May 1993
Topics: Prayer, Covenants"God is perfect and omnipotent, and you and I are mortal. But he is our Father, he loves us, and he offers the same opportunity to draw closer to him as would a loving friend. And you will do it in much the samy way: speaking, listening, and doing."

Topics: Prayer, Heavenly Father, Obedience, Revelation"In words of one syllable, we need to turn to God. We need to reaffirm our faith, and we need to reassert our hope.

—Jeffrey R. Holland, "Look to God and Live"
Topics: Faith, Hope, Repentance, Prayer"In your morning prayer each new day, ask Heavenly Father to guide you to recognize an opportunity to serve one of His precious children. Then go throughout the day with your heart full of faith and love, looking for someone to help."

My challenge to you and to me is to pray to know the gifts we have been given, to know how to develop them, and to recognize the opportunities to serve others that God provides us. But most of all, I pray that you will be inspired to help others discover their special gifts from God to serve."
—Henry B. Eyring, "Help Them Aim High", Liahona and Ensign, November 2012
