David A. Bednar Quotes About Soul

Quotes about: Soul

• There is no physical pain, no spiritual wound, no anguish of soul or heartache, no infirmity or weakness you or I ever confront in mortality that the Savior did not experience first. In a moment of weakness we may cry out, “No one knows what it is like. No one understands.” But the Son of God perfectly knows and understands, for He has felt and borne our individual burdens.

• Receiving the authority of the priesthood by the laying on of hands is an important beginning, but it is not enough.
