You know when you feel that a talk is specifically for you? This was one of those for me. I felt this deep in my soul. Thank you, Elder Rasband.

Words do build or destroy, we need to use them Wisely...
When I was a young teenager I was working with my oldest brother and I thought I was doing a really good job and being thorough. I wanted his approval. He said to me "Timothy, you are inherently slow." Wow that hurt. Was I slow? Those words got inside my head and forty years later I still wonder if I am slow. If it had been anyone else I could have easily forgotten all about that. But I can still hear his words today.
"By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples if you have love one to another"
what a good reminder of what we should be saying and doing as disciples of Jesus. May i always strive to speak with the tongue of angels as Christ would do.
Thank you, 💕 dear brothern I, felt this talk was for ME, it made me humble.
It is essential that all scriptures of God be explained in as many languages as are available.
I really needed to hear this I have hurt a lot of people doing this I did realize how bad this really is thank you
If we think Celestial, we can have true abiding hope that no matter how difficult things can be here in mortality, everything that truly matters will eventually work out. This is only possible because of Jesus Christ, and his great love for each of us individually!
I thought this was a very good talk. You know, “I’m sorry” and “I love you” are in my mind what sets Christianity apart from other cultures. These simple, yet powerful phrases are not emphasized as much elsewhere.
For example, in many traditional East Asian countries, “thank you” and “excuse me” are emphasized to a greater extent, relatively speaking, while “I love you” is not said aloud as often and expressed more through actions and not words. When Christians readily say “I love you” and “I’m sorry” it is often refreshing and endearing to people who are not as used to people talking in this manner.
“I’m sorry” and “I love you” are the distinctive watch words of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Words do matter, and it is these phrases on which the community of Christ is built. Nice message Elder Rasband 👍
I'm not active and don't go much but the spirit talked to me I can do better.❤😊
I want to listen again we all need to hear those words
Hi Amber, Thanks for your comment and for tuning in to the video. You are known and loved by our Heavenly Father and our Savior, Jesus Christ, and you are always welcome to return to church! We encourage you to reach out to our Heavenly Father in prayer to share your hopes and fears, and to begin by seeking help from missionaries and your local church leaders. You can request a virtual appointment from missionaries near you here: www.comeuntochrist.org/contact-us?cid=42001274 You are missed and loved, and we hope to see you soon!
I go sometimes. Just once in awhile I keep watching again I'm only chastised again
Hi Amber,
No pressure, but I would love to see you in our chapel! You are so loved by Father in Heaven, and are so very important to him! I wasn't always active in the gospel of Jesus Christ, but after a while of being away from God, one day I felt like I should be at church. After I started to come back fully, I realized I didn't feel chastised that I had been away from Christ, but like the lost son in the story of the prodigal son, I felt like God was giving me a big hug! I promise you that if you pray to God daily, read a little bit of the Book of Mormon daily, and just keep trying to go to church, even if it's just to hear a talk or two, you will be greatly blessed. The key here is being consistent in going to church every week.
If you form a habit of going to church or feel ready, you can include going to Sunday school. If you feel overwhelmed, and leave church early sometimes, don't be hard on yourself, just keep trying.
God bless you always!
I just saw your response . Hard for me to go church my ward doesn't reach out to me and when I go l get criticized or picked on. Your testimony isn't how heavenly father answers prayers

"If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain."
-James 1:26
Then alot live in vain but we try everyday
I’ve always followed the Prophet; but when Covid policy coordinates his talking points; I was NOT following; “Safe & Effective” was NOT God’s words; I’ve been patiently waiting for the words “I’m sorry” to show up in an op-ed photo-shoot with him. I want to believe he was blind-sided by bigPharma & MSM; so very many were; and too many are dead or battling cancers!
