"Love is what inspired our Heavenly Father to create our spirits; it is
what led our Savior to the Garden of Gethsemane to make Himself a ransom for
our sins. Love is the grand motive of the plan of salvation; it is the source
of happiness, the ever-renewing spring of healing, the precious fountain of
hope. As we extend our hands and hearts toward others in Christlike love,
something wonderful happens to us. Our own spirits become healed, more refined,
and stronger. We become happier, more peaceful, and more receptive to the
whisperings of the Holy Spirit."(, "You Are My Hands," May 2010
Ensign)
2.
Love is the beginning, the middle, and the end of the pathway of discipleship.
It comforts, counsels, cures, and consoles. It leads us through valleys of
darkness and through the veil of death. In the end love leads us to the glory
and grandeur of eternal life.”(, “The Great Commandment,” November 2007
Liahona)
3.
"God's love is so perfect that He lovingly requires us to obey His
commandments because He knows that only through obedience to His laws can we
become perfect, as He is. For this reason, God's anger and His wrath are not a
contradiction of His love but an evidence of His love. Every parent knows that
you can love a child totally and completely while still being creatively angry
and disappointed at that child's self-defeating behavior."(, “Love
and Law” November 2009 Ensign)
4.
"Let us lower our voices in our homes. Let love abound and find expression
in our actions. May we walk the quiet ways of the Lord, and may prosperity
crown our labors." (, "An Humble and a Contrite
Heart," November 2000 Ensign)
5.
"Love is the motivating principle by which the Lord leads us along the way
towards becoming like Him, our perfect example. Our way of life, hour by hour,
must be filled with the love of God and love for others."(, "Our
Perfect Example," November 2009 Ensign)
6. "Because love is the great commandment, it ought to be at the center of all and everything we do in our own family, in our Church callings, and in our livelihood. Love is the healing balm that repairs rifts in personal and family relationships. It is the bond that unites families, communities, and nations. Love is the power that initiates friendship, tolerance, civility, and respect. it is the source that overcomes divisiveness and hate. Love is the fire that warms our lives with unparalleled joy and divine hope. Love should be our walk and talk." (Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "The Love of God" November 2009 Ensign)
7. "If only we will listen, we can know of God's love and feel it, even when we are disobedient. A women recently returned to Church activity gave this description in a sacrament meeting talk: "He has always been there for me, even when I rejected Him. He has always guided me and comforted me with His tender mercies all around me, but I [was] too angry to see all accept incidents and feelings as such." (Dallin H. Oaks, "Love and Law" November 2009 Ensign)
8. "The scriptures speak of [the Lord's] arms being open, extended, stretched out, and encircling. they are described as mighty and holy, arms of mercy, arms of safety, arms of love, 'lengthened out all the day long'. We have each felt to some extent these spiritual arms around us." (Neil L. Andersen, "Repent...That I May Heal You" November 2009 Ensign)
9. "The relationship between love and appropriate action is demonstrated repeatedly in the scriptures and is highlighted by the Savior's instruction to His Apostles" 'If ye love me, keep my commandments'. Just as our love of and for the Lord is evidenced by walking ever in His ways, so our love for spouse, parents, and children is reflected most powerfully in our thoughts, our words, and our deeds." (David A. Bednar, "More Diligent and Concerned at Home," November 2009 Ensign)
10. "We can begin to become more diligent and concerned at home by telling the people we love that we love them. Such expression do not need to be flowery or lengthy. WE simply should sincerely and frequently express love." (David A. Bednar, "More Diligent and Concerned at Home," November 2009 Ensign)
