More quotes by James E. Faust
Perseverance is demonstrated by those who keep going when the going gets tough, who don’t give up even when others say, It can’t be done.
James E. Faust
The temple was a place of learning for the Savior when He was on the earth it was very much a part of His life. Temple blessings are available once again in our day.
James E. Faust
As a young man, I lived through the Great Depression, when banks failed and so many lost their jobs and homes and went hungry. I was fortunate to have a job at a canning factory that paid 25 cents an hour.
James E. Faust
Integrity is the value we set on ourselves. It is a fulfillment of the duty we owe ourselves. An honorable man or woman will personally commit to live up to certain self-imposed expectations. They need no outside check or control. They are honorable in their inner core.
James E. Faust
The depth of the love of parents for their children cannot be measured. It is like no other relationship. It exceeds concern for life itself. The love of a parent for a child is continuous, and transcends heartbreak and disappointment.
James E. Faust
There is no greater good in all the world than motherhood. The influence of a mother in the lives of her children is beyond calculation.
James E. Faust
Integrity is the light that shines from a disciplined conscience.
James E. Faust
Everybody in this life has their challenges and difficulties. That is part of our mortal test. . . . Peace comes through hope.
James E. Faust
Some, like Ebenezer Scrooge in Dickens's A Christmas Carol, have a hard time loving anyone, even themselves, because of their selfishness. Love seeks to give rather than to get. Charity towards and compassion for others is a way to overcome too much self-love
James E. Faust
Listen to your parents. Be obedient to them whether you agree with them or not. They love you more than anyone else and have your best interests at heart.
James E. Faust
One of the advantages of having lived a long time is that you can often remember when you had it worse. I am grateful to have lived long enough to have known some of the blessings of adversity.
James E. Faust
In addition to temples, surely another holy place on earth ought to be our homes. The feelings of holiness in my home prepared me for feelings of holiness in the temple.
James E. Faust
Missionary work will never be what it might be without the help of the members. Stake presidents need to feel some responsibility and ownership of missionary work. The stake president is the one who has the presiding priesthood keys over both the members and non-members in his stake. The missionaries are his helpers.
James E. Faust
Obedience is the path to freedom.
James E. Faust
The gap between what is popular and what is righteous is widening.
James E. Faust
Some parents have difficulty expressing their love physically or vocally. I do not ever recall my own father using the words, Son, I love you, but he showed it in a thousand ways which were more eloquent than words. He rarely missed a practice, a game, a race, or any activity in which his sons participated.
James E. Faust
Faith is the power, obedience is the price, love is the motive, the Spirit is the key and Christ is the reason.
James E. Faust
The depth of our belief in the Resurrection and the Atonement of the Savior will, I believe, determine the measure of courage and purpose with which we meet life's challenges.
James E. Faust
One of the main problems in families today is that we spend less and less time together.... Time together is precious time-time needed to talk, to listen, to encourage, and to show how to do things.
James E. Faust
The saving principles and doctrines of the Church are established, fixed, and unchangeable.
