Reading the scriptures is good. Acting on them? That’s where the power is! Dr. David Morgan talks about how to make the scriptures come alive as you begin to transform your belief into real spiritual strength.
Have you ever thought about how much your music choices affect your spirit? Meg Johnson shares a story about a woman in Guatemala who sang to block out the stench of a turkey—and how music can help us endure even life’s stinkiest situations. But here’s the catch: Not all music brings us closer to Christ. Some songs inspire, while others distract. So today, take a look at your playlist. Are the songs you listen to helping you feel the Spirit—or pulling you away from it? Because the music we choose shapes our thoughts, emotions, and faith more than we realize.
No one ever climbs downhill—meaning, if life feels tough, you’re moving in the right direction. Chad Hymes reminds us that growth doesn’t just happen—we have to pursue it. When you face hardship, loss, stress, or deep struggles, remember: God’s people have always faced trials, and those trials have shaped them. Today, choose to grow through what you go through. You’re climbing, and you’re not alone.
Being your best self isn’t about being better than someone else—it’s about choosing joy, focusing on the positive, and blocking out negativity. Becca Jackson reminds us that Satan wants to hold you back with self-doubt and discouragement, but God wants you to see your worth. So today, instead of focusing on what you lack, find what you love about yourself. Look for the good. See the sunshine. Your best self is waiting—it’s up to you to choose it.
Ever feel like it’s hard to fit in? Brooke Stone shares a powerful lesson she learned in high school—popularity and kindness are NOT the same thing. A study showed that the most popular kids and the most liked kids were completely different people. When Brooke decided to “kill people with kindness”, she left high school with more friends than she could count. So forget about being “cool”—focus on being kind. It’s the real key to building friendships that actually matter.
Self-doubt is one of Satan’s biggest lies. But here’s the truth—Heavenly Father sent you here to succeed. Carmen Herbert reminds us that you already have what it takes. When you feel stuck, unsure, or afraid to move forward, look to God. He knows your potential. He knows your strength. If you trust Him and take action, you’ll accomplish more than you ever imagined. So today, take that step—He’s got you.
God loves you so much, which is why he’s provided LOTS of ways for you to be spiritually strong and connected with Him! Meg Johnson shares personal experiences and scriptures that illustrate the power of positivity, how to seek divine help in your life, and the strength you can gain by working on your testimony a little bit every day.
Too often, we think we have to be perfect before we can lead, contribute, or be taken seriously. But Abby Stearns reminds us of an empowering truth—perfection is not a prerequisite. You don’t have to have everything figured out. You don’t have to wait until you feel “ready.” You are already enough. Whether in school, at work, or in your personal life—what you bring to the table matters. So step forward today, knowing that your voice, your presence, and your influence are needed.
Did you know the Word of Wisdom isn’t just about avoiding certain things—it’s about receiving incredible blessings? Carmen Herbert shares a powerful scripture: “All saints who remember to keep and do these sayings… shall receive health, wisdom, and even hidden treasures.” (D&C 89) That’s a promise straight from God! When we treat our bodies with reverence, nourish them with good food, get rest, and care for our spirits, we unlock blessings beyond what we can see. What’s one simple change you can make today to align with this divine law?
