Unity Despite Diversity

Elder Quentin L. Cook spoke of the importance of having our Hearts Knit in Unity and Righteousness, despite our cultural and/or cosmetic diversity. He reminded us that, despite any and all differences, we are all children of God. We are brothers and sisters. Our spiritual unity should be stronger than our earthly differences. He said that unity and diversity can coexist. We don't have to be identical, or even similar, in order to be united. We should look past our earthly and temporal differences and instead see each other as part of the same eternal, spiritual family.

There's a lot of division in the world these days, but there doesn't need to be. We can find a common ground and our shared humanity by focusing on our shared identity as children of God.
