Our True Source

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland on Relying on the Savior

"Jesus said, 'Without me ye can do nothing.' (John15:5). I testify that that is God's truth. Christ is everything to us and we are to 'abide' in Him permanently, unyieldingly, steadfastly, forever. For the fruit of the gospel to blossom and bless our lives, we must be firmly attached to Him, the Savior of us all, and to this His Church, which bears His holy name. He is the vine that is our true source of strength and the only source of eternal life. In Him we not only will endure but also will prevail and triumph in this holy cause that will never fail us." ( "Abide in Me," Ensign, May 2004, 32)
