 Read D&C 18:10-13

10 Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God;

11 For, behold, the Lord your Redeemer suffered death in the flesh; wherefore he suffered the pain of all men, that all men might repent and come unto him.

12 And he hath risen again from the dead, that he might bring all men unto him, on conditions of repentance.

13 And how great is his joy in the soul that repenteth!

Teach

People often teach that God is going to punish us for all of the bad things that we do, and that God is not loving. Really, God loves each of us so much, and He is just waiting for us to repent and turn to Him. In the Bible, we read John 3:16-17, which says “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” When we remember Jesus Christ and His wonderful Atonement, we can feel in our hearts the love that Heavenly Father has for each of us, and we can share that love with others by teaching them that each person is a child of God and that He loves them too. The more people that we teach that to, the more we can help God’s love spread to others.
