Down through the generations of time, the message from Jesus has been the same. But how do we follow him if we don't find him? And how shall we find him it first we don't seek him? Where and how should we begin this search for Jesus? Before we can successfully under5take a personal search for Jesus, we must first prepare for him in our lives and room for him in our heart. How do we prepare?
Thomas S. Monson served as the 16th President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (often called the "Mormon Church" or "LDS Church") from 2008 to his death in 2018. Before his time as President, he had served as a Counselor in the First Presidency of the Church since 1985. He was ordained an Apostle and called to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in 1963 at the unusually young age of 36.
Monson was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. After serving in the US Navy and earning a bachelor's degree from the University of Utah, he married Frances Johnson and they had three children. Monson worked in the local news publishing industry until church service became a full-time occupation.
This is a wonderful address by President Monson that reviews aspects of his testimony and the search for a testimony of Christ that all Christians are faced with. This should be read by all as all need to come closer to the savior and understand who and what He is.
