Elder D. Todd Christofferson
“In ancient times when people wanted
to worship the Lord and seek His blessings, they often brought a gift. …“Is
there something in you or in your life that is impure or unworthy? When you get
rid of it, that is a gift to the Savior. Is there a good habit or quality that
is lacking in your life? When you adopt it and make it part of your character,
you are giving a gift to the Lord. Sometimes this is hard to do, but would your
gifts of repentance and obedience be worthy gifts if they cost you nothing?”
