"The counsel 'look to God and live' not only has meaning for us in eternity but also makes all the difference in the character and quality of our mortal lives. Remember the words of young Sister Selebeli in Lesotho ... 'Jesus Christ loves us and is with us, even though our hearts hurt.'"

"It is in the nature of a fallen world—where the devil rages and where everyone is imperfect—that there will be disappointments and offenses, suffering and sorrow, failure and loss, persecution and injustice. It is only by looking to God that individuals, families, and even nations can flourish. … Levels of chronic loneliness, emotional isolation, and anxiety in the general population contrast [favorably] with … Latter-day Saints. It’s not that we … never experience … challenges…. Rather, it is that in looking to Jesus Christ, we can prevail."

"Alma explained that to look to God is to keep His commandments, cry unto Him continually for His support, counsel with Him in all your doings, and let your heart be full of thanks unto Him day and night."

"For the Strength of Youth speaks to several of God’s most urgent commandments and standards and teaches how to look to the Lord in making good decisions. It is a guide not only for youth but for all of us."

“Treat your body—and others’ bodies—with respect. As you make decisions about your clothing, hairstyle, and appearance, ask yourself, ‘Am I honoring my body as a sacred gift from God?’”

“Keep sex and sexual feelings sacred. They should not be the subject of jokes or entertainment. Outside of marriage between a man and a woman, it is wrong to touch the private, sacred parts of another person’s body even if clothed. In your choices about what you do, look at, read, listen to, think about, post, or text, avoid anything that purposely arouses lustful emotions in others or yourself.”

"If you have been unchaste, I plead with you to repent. Come unto Christ and receive His promise of complete forgiveness as you fully repent of your sins." - Pres. Nelson

Keep the Lord's commandments so you can "prosper in the land." "Remember that in the Book of Mormon promise, the opposite of prosperity was not poverty—it was being cut off from the presence of the Lord."

"There seems to be no end to the different sources people look to for meaning, happiness, and help. Most are 'looking beyond the mark.' But we need not be 'children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine [or fashion].' In looking to God, we can find peace in difficulty, and our faith can continue to grow even in times of doubt and spiritual challenge. We can receive strength in the face of opposition and isolation. We can reconcile the ideal with the present reality. Truly, there is no other way than what God Himself has ordained: 'Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.'”

"Looking to God means that He is not just one of our priorities; it means, rather, that He is our one highest priority."
