Below are some timeless messages on love, messages that are worth studying repeatedly!
Thomas S. Monson, “Love-the Essence of the Gospel”. April 2014 General Conference.
“Love is the very essence of the gospel, and Jesus Christ is our Exemplar.”
“Our greatest opportunities to demonstrate our love will be within the walls of our own homes. Love should be the very heart of family life.”
“As we arise each morning, let us determine to respond with love and kindness to whatever might come our way.”
Joseph B. Wirthlin, “The Great Commandment”. October 2007 General Conference.
“The measure of our love is the measure of the greatness of our souls.”
“Love is the beginning, the middle, and the end of the pathway of discipleship.”
“Often, the greatest manifestations of love are the simple acts of kindness and caring we extend to those we meet along the path of life.”
“Love is the greatest of all the commandments—all others hang upon it. It is our focus as followers of the living Christ. It is the one trait that, if developed, will most improve our lives.”
“And charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, if ye have not charity, ye are nothing, for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity, which is the greatest of all, for all things must fail—
But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure. Amen.”
Jeffrey R. Holland,”How Do I Love Thee?” BYU Speeches, Feb 15, 2000.
“Real love is best shown in the “how”.
“True love blooms when we care more about another person than we care about ourselves.”
Jeffrey R. Holland, “The First Great Commandment”. October 2012 General Conference.
“My beloved brothers and sisters, I am not certain just what our experience will be on Judgment Day, but I will be very surprised if at some point in that conversation, God does not ask us exactly what Christ asked Peter: “Did you love me?” I think He will want to know if in our very mortal, very inadequate, and sometimes childish grasp of things, did we at least understand onecommandment, the first and greatest commandment of them all—“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind.”13 And if at such a moment we can stammer out, “Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee,” then He may remind us that the crowning characteristic of love is always loyalty.”
Richard G. Scott,”The Eternal Blessings of Marriage”. April 2011 General Conference.
“Pure love is an incomparable, potent power for good. Righteous love is the foundation of a successful marriage. It is the primary cause of contented, well-developed children.”
