Self Discipline Battle

More From Thomas S. Monson

The battle for self-discipline may leave you a bit bruised and battered but always a better person. self-discipline is a rigorous process at best; too many of us want it to be effortless and painless. should temporary setbacks afflict us, a very significant part of our struggle for self-discipline is the determination and the courage to try again....eternal life in the kingdom of our father is your goal, and self-discipline will surely be required if you are to achieve it.
Determination Father Struggle
When you've been battered down and battered down and battered down, your spirit gets broken.

The self-discipline of the social democracy is not merely the replacement of the authority of bourgeois rulers with the authority of a socialist central committee. the working class will acquire the sense of the new discipline, the freely assumed self-discipline of the social democracy, not as a result of the discipline imposed on it by the capitalist state, but by extirpating, to the last root, its old habits of obedience and servility.
Self Class Roots
There is only one sort of discipline - perfect discipline. men cannot have good battle discipline and poor administrative discipline.
Military Men Discipline
No system can long command the loyalties of men and women which does not expect of them certain measures of discipline, and particularly self-discipline. the cost in comfort may be great. the sacrifice may be real. but this very demanding reality is the substance of which comes character and strength and nobility. permissiveness never produced greatness. integrity, loyalty, and strength are virtues whose sinews are developed through the struggles that go on within as we practice self-discipline under the demands of divinely spoken truth.
Loyalty Integrity Real
What makes authentic disciples is not visions, ecstasies, biblical mastery of chapter and verse, or spectacular success in the ministry, but a capacity for faithfulness. buffeted by the fickle winds of failure, battered by their own unruly emotions, and bruised by rejection and ridicule, authentic disciples may have stumbled and frequently fallen, endured lapses and relapses, gotten handcuffed to the fleshpots and wandered into a far county. yet, they kept coming back to jesus.

That's who jesus christ is. he became the final priest and the final sacrifice. sinless, he did not offer sacrifices for himself. immortal, he never has to be replaced. human, he could bear human sins. therefore he did not offer sacrifices for himself; he offered himself as the final sacrifice. there will never be the need for another. there is one mediator between us and god. one priest. we need no other. oh, how happy are those who draw near to god through christ alone.

Jesus christ conferred power upon peter, but what sort of power was it? jesus’ three questions to peter about love are followed by three commands: feed my lambs, feed my sheep. let us never forget that authentic power is service, and that the pope too, when exercising power, must enter ever more fully into that service which has its radiant culmination on the cross.
Jesus Exercise Sheep
Finally, if you still are growing, you reach the highest archetype, the archetype of the spirit. this is the time when you finally realize what jesus meant when he said, "you are in this world, but you are not of this world." you are not here as a human being having a spiritual experience, but the reverse is true: all of us here are spiritual beings having a human experience.

Missionary work is an identifying feature of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints. always has it been; ever shall it be.
