Be an Example and a Light

[@toyaschuenke4502]

I started bawling, listening to the last 30 seconds. I am saddened to think that this may be the last we hear from our Prophet. He is the only Prophet I have known in the church, as I am a convert... I love him SO much!!.... My heart is breaking.

[@rickjohnson331]

Nothing can sway me from two things: 1: this man is a true prophet of God 2: the Lord sustains him in fulfilling his calling

[@FromAgonyToLight]

Checking on how you are doing, I pray you are strong and unswayed after all!

[@theQiwiMan]

Even though his physical frame is weak, his powerful testimony echoes through eternity. This man is a spiritual giant, and I love him like a grandfather.

[@aesjraesjr6772]

I and many others around the world Love you and we miss you Prophet Thomas Monson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We are great full, thankful and blessed for these videos which still teach many and inspire more. ✝️🙏❤️

[@RosaBrandDesigns]

He was everything I always knew would change men's hearts the day he became Prophet. I'm sorry to have missed his words in the lapse of my membership for over 23 years. Now that I'm back, I'm so grateful to those who have brought his words to me via this technology. Bless you all!

[@twiwonder]

Hurts to watch this, and yet I am so grateful for this man. God bless our prophet.

[@firmdoggypeter8128]

don't watch it; listen to it and dive deep into the message.....

[@anitajonsson4379]

Oh my, with every breath he takes he utters forth his testimony of the goodness, power, and light that comes from God, our Eternal Father in Heaven and from Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. If only, I too could follow with implacable faith... summoning every last ounce of energy in body and soul, to express my love and shine my light from on High as President Monson demonstrates here. I love him too and am most grateful for his life of service and love.

[@DoctorDew]

If only I’d known when he spoke these words how much I would love and miss him. Thank you for all you did and do, Brother Monson Jeff Graver

[@Tao_Peace]

Absolutely one of the kindness most gentle men this world will ever know. It was very difficult but inspiring to see the conviction of this man, our prophet. May he have many more days to teach us!

[@KellyMillerldspoetry]

You have held us up And lead us along I know it's been tough For there is much wrong Thank you for each word Your kind example I felt and I heard Pure love to sample! The weight of his mantle became apparent today. There's a lot to handle. For our prophet we pray.

[@nefigalan6022]

He truly is a prophet of The Lord. I felt God's power as he talked about being a light to the world. At times we forget who we are, and why we are here, let thy thoughts be full of purity to act well.

[@Lieslbiesl69]

God held him up, I am always amazed when I watch one of these Elderly leaders speaking, and I am sure they collapse any moment, but they always make it through to the last word. They still do all they can to stand up and testify of Christ.

[@dvf4550]

Yes there were literally two angels by his side holding him up and were seen by children.

[@hivatu]

President Monson we love you we suppot you and we pray for you!

[@megaman2127]

Thank you, president Monson I enjoyed your talk and I will strive to shine my light to those around me. Your season on this earth was wonderful

[@backupchannel231]

President Monson is a true Prophet of God. May he stand strong in the testimony of the Redeemer, and be his representative as the leader of the Church of Jesus Christ. We pledge ourselves to you Prophet Monson, and to the Lord. As you may enter into the Heavens soon, may you be exalted.

[@bbell9999]

President Monson is a very special man of God... Rather this is his last talk or not, he has given over 50 years of his life to service and nearly 30 years in the First Presidency of LDS Church.... Thank you very much President Monson and Heavenly Father for allowing his wisdom to enlighten us.... Only Heavenly Father knows when he will be taken home and be reunited with his beloved wife.

[@bellacheamaria7539]

His NLP techniques are the best !

[@danielnelson8516]

B Bell that's right. only when the Lord God takes him with him into the celestial world

[@alisonsantander2105]

He is real Prophet, He's a great example to me .. He is very strong .. I love him and we need to pray to support him in this time of difficult..

[@JoshuaMudiima]

I still like this one. eloquently speaking i learn alot everytime I watch it

[@musicloverarmeda]

May the Lord always bless him.

[@westinnewman3572]

Even if you are not a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it is still easy to see the truth and compassion present in this man’s words.

[@mattctr]

Amazing how his struggle matched his message. He endured with faith until the very last breath!

[@damonlealofi822]

President Monson. ❤️

[@igonzals2]

After have been seen so great internal determination that overwhelms the words, there's nothing more can be said than "I confess Monson as the Apostol of the Lord".

[@lasaginalover]

An incredible example of sharing the Lord's words, promises, and love to us all and he will hold on as long as he can to deliver the Lord's message until his duty here is done and passed on to the next President that we may be able to follow. Prime example here, I'm sure this message here alone has influenced millions around the world to listen more closely to the importance of the plan... if those are uncertain of what the plan is, it is strongly encouraged to come to understand it, why it is so important that we may know our Heavenly Father and his Son through the teachings given... it will be worth it, it is a promise to us all. President Monson is truly a mouthpiece of God, and to hear him speak yesterday during this physical state is extremely powerful to me. I am so thankful for the wonderful conference we had this past weekend! Such love to us all on this Earth!

[@HamocydalManiac]

May our Heavenly Father continue to bless you our dear Prophet. We will continuously pray for you and for all our leaders worldwide. We love you very much President Monson 😊

[@caedenchapman5373]

The camera didn't show it but elder Uctdorf was poised to catch him the entire time, and had to help him back to his seat.

[@yannick245]

I think you meant positioned.🤣

[@alexissmith2080]

You may have been thinking of 1 of 3 definitions of poised. One is a composed manner, Two is balanced (such as a ballerina en pointe), Three is to be alert in place, in suspense, ready to spring into action.

[@anromedae9268]

I love you Monson I hope I hear you speak again please never forget the power in the book of Mormon

[@hudsonsteele1674]

"What are we going to do about the light in their eyes?" Tears of joy fill mine, hearing this. Love you, Thomas S. 'Little Tommy' Monson. Rest in peace my dear friend and Prophet of Almighty God.

[@gamingdrew5685]

True prophet of God. I sustain him, even though winded by his physical in capabilities and weaknesses. He has a spirit of pure intent, pure loving and hope, I fear as many that his last days are approaching, but I do sustain him to the end.

[@margiagilesvanderveur2583]

WE LOVE AND MISS YOU PRESIDENT MONSON !!!!

[@CristianPerez-wd4vs]

No matter what the world say, it doesn't change the fact that presidente Monson is the living Prophet today, ironically for many, he's the prophet for the world.

[@contact3604]

How wonderful, and privileged we are, to listen to the words of a living prophet. For don't we all believe in life eternal! So that is why l say, a living prophet! The gospel is true, and the words of Jesus Christ are true! May we all strive to be better, and tp do better! So that we can for ever be a beacon of light, in these ever darkened times. God bless! To one and all. Moira From England.

[@bridgeta.]

Thanks for the conveying God's message on being a light to the world in word, conversation, charity, spirit, faith, and purity. We love you!

[@gingerdurbin2726]

I love this man so dearly. I hope one day to meet him.

[@supersoup4672]

A part of this just was exactly what I needed and it amazes me cause it’s such an old talk … but God sees us all where we are and His wisdom pierces all times and He knows what we need wherever and whenever we are I know this Church is true and that God calls true prophets to teach and guide us by His words

[@dswoop9477]

Amazing example of how we should live. The Prophet Thomas S. Monson is the perfect example of dedicating ourselves to God

[@london2844]

God bless Prophet Thomas S. Monson. I hope Spirit Paradise is beautiful! We will never forget you're selfless service and sacrifice for the church! Thank you for being a true prophet.

Surely he is a prophet of God. I love this wonderful man. I include him in my prayers.

[@Revmatchdownshift_]

I hope my light comes back soon. I am trying hard to get it back.

[@stitchedbycarly]

im sure it is back already :)

[@Glen.Danielsen]

I agree with Carly, BP3DP . . . it sounds like your light is coming back already. God bless you so much!

[@nathanh.9767]

the light is with you just need to work a bit :)

[@divainpasta3641]

BP3DP you got this ! We are all one always connected ! Love joy and peace come from within us it is our fire we create by believing in ourselves believing we are the fire 🔥 I love you ! It's all about love ❤️

[@johnsannicolas548]

Don't try. We as humans cannot meet these callings on our own. Jesus ignites our fire, ask Him to help you.

[@tongandjwes]

We love you President Thomas S. Monson. You are always in our hearts and our prayers.

[@EMonzon]

He did it with the last drop of strength his old body had. What an example of service!

[@alisheridan6979]

God bless him, pushing through his own personal struggle to spread the gospel in hopes to relieve people of their own. He is an inspiration.

[@kellymcdonald1895]

We miss you President Monson. Please know the Church is rolling on!

[@cameronnielsen6483]

I think the power of this sermon matches or exceeds any other that has been delivered in this dispensation. His determination and selflessness is relentless and truly humbling. Shall we not go on in so great a cause with examples such as this?

[@wgrroseberry]

I agree with everyone's positive messages. He is truly an inspiring man. Heavenly Father's angels watch over all of us . We may not always see them but they are definitely there. God bless everyone!

[@suzansu9616]

May u rest in eternal peace my prophet,,, we'll always follow ur examples and counsels

[@lovesoupnz]

love you president Monson, 💓💓💓

[@Sixalienasa]

President Monson is a typical example that we all have our cross to bear and that the Lord will support us in all our trials and tribulations, if we have faith in His Love.

[@niumatauvave8750]

I am grateful that he is still with us... I love him...

[@crimsoncool-aid4878]

I've been down in the dumps for the past few months. I've been noticing myself just getting more sad. but during church today I just decided to look up a Thomas S Monson talk. Hearing his voice and the words he has to say always makes me feel the light of Christ. I know I shouldn't have favorites but president monson has always spoken out to me the most of the president's of the church. not saying that he's the best but I just feel a connection with him as brother in the church. I fully sustain him as the president of the church.

[@rodolfoh.carrillo3267]

PRAYER AND FASTING AND YOU WILL BE OK

[@tlatpeace]

I pray you are doing better now. I understand fully how you feel. I can relate to him and to Pres. Uchtdorf. They both always say the words my spirit needs to hear. When I'm having a difficult day I get on LDS.ORG (or here) and look up their talks and just listen. It always helps!

[@jglomadafakagadayumuh]

I have had a rough day, and I was in a completely different mindset yesterday than I was today. I was open to doing anything the church is against, because I kept justifying my action with irrelevant reasons. To see the difference even in the comments on this youtube video to any other is as astonishing as it is heartwarming. some people would watch this video and comment on some negative worldly appearance, but everyone who hears heavenly fathers holy prophet is caring and encouraging to his condition, which truly is amazing. We truly do stand out as member of latter day saints and surrounding ourselves with the light of Jesus Christ, I love heavenly father and want to continue to follow his word.

[@clandyjeur3880]

OK! Thank you very much OUR PRECIOUS BROTHER'S AND SISTER'S FOREVER.

[@ilovebacon304]

This is exactly what I needed to hear! Thank you Lord for a living prophet!

[@reshayito]

I LOVE THIS MAN!

[@MrBerrio]

What a powerful talk. I feel amazed every time I get to listen to our beloved Prophet's voice. His unbreakable testimony gives me so much hope and strength that I so need to take me through my days. Thank you President Monson for all the things that you do for everyone. We sure love and support you. May God always bless you.

[@LemonLime48.]

I hate to see him like this but he has a powerful spirit!

[@Da4711Bulldog]

I got scared tbh but you got to admire his spiritual power to endure till the end.

[@aztecwarrior6903]

I love the words of the prophets.

[@MarkinaterX]

I commute to work just under 45 mins a day one way from where I live to where my base is. I say that's a blessing because it gives me chance to listen to conference each day here in KZbin as my suggestions. As I listen and or watch these i remember them like it was yesterday! I didnt go on my mission but Heavenly Father blessed me to have so many inactive sailors come across my way wherever I am at sea or in port. I wanted to go to my mission but I was needed somewhere else. almost 10 years in the navy this coming June 2020. I am grateful to have those opportunities as a beacon, a guiding light for our brothers or sisters lost and having a hard time getting back!

[@corinabillsie2786]

Why do people talk negative! about our Prophet President Monson! he's still living he's alive I hope Heavenly Father let's him live more years....

[@simionesema9650]

May you Rest In Love Pres. Monson..

[@mYw44]

God bless the prophet Thomas S. Monson

[@msokiedokie123]

We thank thee oh God for a prophet!

[@yvonnesanchez5009]

This is my favorite talk of all since I became a member.

[@kingnoblelove2542]

I know He will live to magnify his calling till eternity

[@mobilesuit033]

El presidente Monson ha sido un hombre valiente. Se sobrepone al agobio del peso de los años, y sin embargo, sé que seguirá siendo firme y valiente hasta el final. Será mi ejemplo de cómo vivir la doctrina de Cristo, hasta el final. Gracias por su ejemplo, presidente Monson

[@sevenawesome4620]

Pain, weakness and difficulty come to us all... I am grateful for this man's example. I too can persevere.

[@mannaiwangjen7818]

Yes we must be an example and a light to the world

[@alvinsmith6028]

Thomas monson you still have the opportunity to speak the truth...

[@themantuc8235]

his grandson is in the bishopric in my ward Pres Monson you are awesome!

[@troyterry6919]

My teacher is President Monson's son who teaches at BYU. One of my friends asked him how President Monson was. Apparently he has had diabetes for years and has basically no feeling in his feet. Standing for extended periods is difficult for him to do. He only does well on his feet for 5-10 minutes at a time. So unfortunately this wasn't an isolated incident, rather it was just a sign of his advancing years. Dr. Monson's sister was in the congregation watching and was nervous as could be. Dr. Monson was at home just hoping his dad would hurry up his remarks or cut them short and get to the end of his talk so he could sit down. (And I personally have noticed that he seems to have struggled more since the passing of Sister Frances Monson.) He might have to give his talks while sitting in his chair from now on.

[@schmo7777]

that's what I was thinking. he did seem to be hypoglycemic too near the end of the talk, nearly fainting and looking very pale. the neuropathy will cause issues. having diabetes always shaves off a fear years of life. surprised he is still going at nearly 90

[@dvf4550]

There were two angels holding him up and were seen by children.

[@valuiputi]

Thanks predint Monson for a nice speach,it's reminds me to be an a good example and let my light so shine...Hope you reach the next conference next year..God will bless you for the strength...thanks for alots of good words you guide us everytime,and your kind example to us...

[@melissapratt3545]

Poor president Monson :( It's clear he's in pain but trying to end with his love for the Savior.. What a strong man.

[@whenteenagersgetbored5179]

Monson's birthday is tomarrow... The eclipse is also tomarrow... Great birthday present to a great man of the Lord.

[@connieaunario826]

My admiration to this man.

Thank you Prophet Monson.

[@noahbayardo7815]

thank u I needed to hear that talk u are my inspiration Thomas s monsoon .

[@calleyc8916]

It really does sadden me that this might be the last time where we will here him. But I know that he was called of God and fulfilled his duty here on earth. He is a strong man and has been through so much. He will be so happy once he can see his wife and other family.

[@Slytherin__2001]

The last couple of minutes of his talk were so hard for me to watch, I grew up listening to his talks I just can imagine a world without our beloved prophet

[@Glen.Danielsen]

Yah Caitlin, it is such a heart-pain to see such a giant of a prophet becoming feeble, so close to the sunset of his life. God bless you,

[@lindz151074]

May our prayers continue to sustain him :)

[@DioceseTemplar]

I love President Monson, the living prophet. He didn't look too good towards the end of his talk.

[@NjwillForever]

Regardless of whether or not this man truly is a living prophet of God, he did deliver a beautiful and powerful message. Very well stated, very saddening how his life seems to be failing as he speaks. Inspiring, nonetheless.

[@williamk9881]

Thank you. I understand that we do not all agree on the same things, but I'm grateful for your positive statement even though you may not believe he is a prophet. I do believe he is and admire your positivity. He's a great man.

[@NjwillForever]

William K When I see anyone say anything well, I will respect it. I am personally not a Mormon and I have my personal problems that make me, at this point in my life, incapable of joining the Church of LDS, but I have nothing but respect for my Mormon friends who uphold the laws, believe it in their hearts, and do their best to live in peace and happiness with the world around them. I myself am a Christian, and I read Mormon Doctrines and Scriptures quite frequently. I like to think that some of the beliefs of the Mormon Church can be used as commentaries and criticisms by non-Mormon Christians. I believe that some of the prophets have been good men with honest and sincere hearts. I will always be saddened when great men seem to fade, but rejoice that they had been here to give their message.

[@williamk9881]

Your attitude is just the kind we need for us all to get along. :-) Thank you for recognizing this good message. God bless you.

[@NjwillForever]

William K And I pray God will continue to bless you and all my Mormon friends as brothers as well.

[@CristianPerez-wd4vs]

Thank you for your kind words. I invite you to listen to the Missionaries and their message. We not only have a living Prophet but also there are 12 living apostles guiding this living church. The Lord leads this church which carries His Holy Name.
