Quote

Patience is a godly attribute that can heal souls, unlock treasures of knowledge and understanding, and transform ordinary men and women into saints and angels. Patience is truly a fruit of the Spirit. Patience means staying with something until the end. It means delaying immediate gratification for future blessings.

God's promises are not always fulfilled as quickly as or in the way we might hope they come according to His timing and in His ways.

Image
This mortal life is our playing field. Our goal is to learn to love God and to extend that same love toward our fellowman. We are here to build, uplift, treat fairly, and encourage all of Heavenly Father’s children.

Life has a way of testing our anchors and tempting us to drift. Nevertheless, if our anchors are correctly placed in the rock of our Redeemer, they will hold—no matter the force of the wind, the strength of the tide, or the height of the waves.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
No matter our circumstances, no matter our challenges or trials, there is something in each day to embrace and cherish. There is something in each day that can bring gratitude and joy if only we will see and appreciate it.

Spiritual light rarely comes to those who merely sit in the darkness waiting for someone to flick the switch.

You will suffer, be tempted, and make mistakes. You will learn for yourself what every heroine has learned: through overcoming challenges come growth and strength. It is your reaction to adversity, not the adversity itself, that determines how your life's story will develop.

Often the answer to our prayer does not come while we're on our knees, but while we're on our feet serving the Lord and serving those around us.

Personal testimony of the gospel and the Church is the most important thing you can earn in this life.

You are not invisible to your Heavenly Father. He loves you.

Image
What we love determines what we seek. What we seek determines what we think and do. What we think and do determines who we are — and who we will become.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Your Heavenly Father knows that you will make mistakes. He knows that you will stumble-perhaps many times. This saddens Him, but He loves you. He does not wish to break your spirit. On the contrary, He desires that you rise up and become the person you were designed to be.

The divine love of God turns ordinary acts into extraordinary service.

If we are only willing to open our hearts and minds to the spirit of Christmas, we will recognize wonderful things happening around us.

We don’t discover humility by thinking less of ourselves we discover humility by thinking less about ourselves.

Rise up and become the person you were meant to be.

What you create doesn’t have to be perfect. So what if the eggs are greasy or the toast is burned? Don’t let fear of failure discourage you.

The Apostle Paul in his letter to the Romans said that those who pass judgment on others are 'inexcusable.' The moment we judge someone else, he explained, we condemn ourselves, for none is without sin. Refusing to forgive is a grievous sin-one the Savior warned against.

. . . the number of prayers we say may contribute to our happiness, but the number of prayers we answer may be of greater importance. Let us open our eyes and see the heavy hearts, notice the loneliness and despair let us feel the silent prayers of others around us and let us be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to answer those prayers.

Endings are not our destiny...They are merely interruptions-temporary pauses that one day will seem small compared to the eternal joy awaiting the faithful.

The perfect place to begin is exactly where you are right now.
