"Christ stated: 'I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth
in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.' (John
11:25.) The greatest tragedy that can happen to a person is not
the loss of his possessions, or his intellect, or his mortal life, but
rather to lose eternal life, which is the free gift of God." - Carlos H.
Amado, "Overcoming
Adversity," Ensign (CR), November 1989, p.29

Basically, we limit our vision to the events that happen in this life
with the greatest emphasis placed on the present. Only when we fix our
gaze on the heavenly things do we begin to understand the eternities.
Only with the help of Christ can we fully overcome tragedy. It is
necessary to develop our faith in Him as the Redeemer of the world. He
taught us: “In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good
cheer; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33.) - Carlos H. Amado,

Servant
and service are common words in the restored church. Someone said,
“The one who doesn’t live to serve doesn’t serve to live”—wise words
which are applied to each priesthood holder. Another word to
describe the priesthood is service; literally, every man who
receives the priesthood is “called to serve.” The Apostle Peter said
about you, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an
holy nation, a peculiar people” (1
Pet. 2:9). - Carlos H.

At each moment of His suffering,
the Redeemer of the world showed exceptional self-control. He always
thought of blessing others; with kindness and tenderness, He pleaded
for John to take care of His mother, Mary. He asked His Father in
Heaven to forgive the executioners who crucified Him. - Carlos

Conversion is a personal and spiritual process. Every individual
must examine these principles for himself. It is not enough to make
a halfhearted attempt, accompanied by doubts, fear, or lack of
trust. God promises us, because of His mercy, that He will answer
our petitions in accordance with our sincerity. Only those who seek
with real intent will receive their answer, as a gift from God,
through the Holy Ghost. - Carlos
