Here’s your daily dose of what matters most!
When guilt over our choices or pain we never chose weighs us down, we can look to God and live by turning to Jesus Christ for forgiveness, strength, and a way forward. We do not need every answer before we ask for His help, so what burden will we place in His hands today?
Scripture
“And now, my son, I have told you this that ye may learn wisdom, that ye may learn of me that there is no other way or means whereby man can be saved, only in and through Christ. Behold, he is the life and the light of the world. Behold, he is the word of truth and righteousness.”—Alma 38:9
Quote
“Through Jesus Christ, we can escape the deserved agonies of our moral failings and overcome the undeserved agonies of our mortal misfortunes.”—Matthew S. Holland, “The Exquisite Gift of the Son”

Living the Principle: “Look to God and Live”
- Begin each day by asking Jesus Christ for help with one specific burden or weakness.
- When guilt returns, pray for forgiveness and take one step to repair the harm.
- When hardship feels overwhelming, choose one faithful action instead of waiting for every answer.
