- "Hand art imagery follows Elder Gilbert’s Parable of the Slope, which teaches that our direction we are headed and our slope matter far more than our starting point or struggles.

Beautiful message and artistry. Loved this line: "He will do everything He can to help us turn our slopes toward heaven."
God made this just for me! I struggle with severe depression and lately it has been very difficult for me to feel comfortable with partaking in gospel oriented media. As a kid I watched sprout (a tv channel) and my favorite part was the sand painting stories so when I saw this I knew it was God reaching out to me! Thank you
I recently just went to the temple for the first time and I ask god, “what do you want from me ?” And I didn’t receive an answer so I asked him 6x more and I felt and heard a voice say, “ all I want is for you to have peace” god has understand everyone is different and he understood that’s what I needed to hear.
Christ can lift us from wherever we are... What an important message, and so beautifully illustrated.
I feel as though I listened to this when I needed to hear it. The artist who used the black dust to help convey Elder Gilbert's words using black dust was incredible, and I was inspired by both the spoken word and the intricate art. Thank you
My mom used to tell me that life is like a graph. She said that as we go up, there may be small setbacks, but the general trend is upward. And that’s what is important.
Excellent explanation and imagery. I like the drawings of the artist. This explanation is so true, it matters what each of us do in this life. Putting out a little extra effort daily helping others and holding tight to the rod of iron will take us for a wonderful Adventure we need to accomplish in mortality. Is it possible for all of us to be more grateful as we navigate this life? I see being grateful constantly helps us to navigate around the trials and tribulations of life more easily, but first we have to give the Lord our burdens and concerns. The Lord's yoke is easy and brings more peace of mind, I don't want my yoke anymore, the Lord's yoke is easy, less dress and don't need the burden. Then life can get better and better instead of worse and worse, I don't like that word, worse to me it's a negative. I don't need negative in my life. The positive seems to bring more peace to your life.
Thanx. It seems as though someone keeps throwing banana peels on my on my path.
Love that they paired his talk with this remarkable art 😍 it doesn’t matter where we start, but it matters where we end: God’s presence 😇
Reminds me of hiw Jesus drew in the sand when the woman was about to be stoned to death... beautiful message... thank you. I've shared with my ward and the youth
Thank you for this video, it put my thought"s back on track, I have a tendency even at 53 years old to constantly live in my past! It's not easy to let go of a past that was so bad I have been told by nurses and psychiatrist that I should write a book .
This is the kind of serious lesson that needs to be taught in every church around the world; our own as well as others.

Thank you. I needed that. I started life with a few bumps in the road that have made my journey difficult. But I am heading in the right direction.
"IT IS NOT WHERE WE
In a world dominated by materialistic pursuits and desires, these teachings give me peace! I am grateful to know that The Lord doesn’t care so much about where we start, but where we are at now and where we, with His help, can go.
I love this. God is real and he expects us to improve. That doesn’t matter if we go from a 1 to a 2 or a 99 to a 100. All he wants is for us to help others and improve. I also believe that where much is given much is expected.
The art by itself is beautiful, the talk by Elder Gilbert is inspired, together they are transcendent. Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of art and inspiration about the Savior and what it means for each of us.
I remember when President Gilbert was President of BYU-I. I loved this talk during General Conference, and I'm so glad it has a video now!!
Jesus sees potential in every living soul. He knows the eventual and can lift us on our slope. This message came at a great time, for me. I am getting my strength back after recovering from surgery. After 2 months, I am still getting tired and have to remind myself of the progress. Spiritually, this is true, too. Medications can set you back.
