7 quotes to help us understand that there is a God

In Europe they are doing 21 days of soul searching questions with talks and scriptures to help find the answers. Here’s the link. 

Come join us as we do it with them. 

The first question is, IS THERE A GOD?

The talk to study is, You Matter To Him by Dieter F. Uchtdorf. 

The scripture to study is Alma 22:1-26

Here are 7 quotes to sum it up:

Moses stood in the presence of God and spoke to Him face to face as a man speaks with his friend. During the course of that visitation, God showed Moses the workmanship of His hands, granting him a glimpse of His work and glory.

Given the vastness of God’s creations, it’s no wonder the great King Benjamin counseled his people to “always retain in remembrance, the greatness of God, and your own nothingness.”

This is a paradox of man: compared to God, man is nothing; yet we are everything to God.

And while we may look at the vast expanse of the universe and say, “What is man in comparison to the glory of creation?” God Himself said we are the reason He created the universe! His work and glory–the purpose for this magnificent universe–is to save and exalt mankind

 

My dear brothers and sisters, it may be true that man is nothing in comparison to the greatness of the universe. At times we may even feel insignificant, invisible, alone, or forgotten. But always remember–you matter to Him!

Brothers and sisters, the most powerful Being in the universe is the Father of your spirit. He knows you. He loves you with a perfect love.

God sees you not only as a mortal being on a small planet who lives for a brief season–He sees you as His child. He sees you as the being you are capable and designed to become. He wants you to know that you matter to Him.

I have had so much studying this question. I loved this talk by Dieter F. Uchtdorf.  You can’t help but come away from it feelings loved.  I would love to hear your thoughts. Comment below.
