“On one occasion an inquiring lawyer came to the Savior and asked, ‘Master, which is the great commandment in the law?’ The Savior responded, ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.’
How do we demonstrate to our Heavenly Father that we love Him? When Sister Monson and I were university students, there was a popular song that had words something like these: ‘It’s easy to say I love you, easy to say I’ll be true; easy to say these foolish things, but prove it by the things you do.’ We have a responsibility to prove to our Heavenly Father, by the things we do, that we love Him.”
Thomas S. Monson, “How Do We Show Our Love?”, January 1998 Ensign
