James E. Faust
If we can find forgiveness in our hearts for those who have caused us hurt and injury, we will rise to a higher level of self-esteem and well-being.
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
True charity ought to begin in marriage, for it is a relationship that must be rebuilt every day.
James E. Faust
Obedience is the path to freedom.
James E. Faust
None of us knows the wisdom of the Lord. We do not know in advance exactly how He would get us from where we are to where we need to be, but He does offer us broad outlines in our patriarchal blessings. We encounter many bumps, bends, and forks in the road of life that leads to the eternities.
James E. Faust
This Christmas and every Christmas will be richer by sharing and enjoying gifts that cannot be held but only felt.
James E. Faust
Noble fatherhood gives us a glimpse of the divine attributes of our Father in Heaven.
James E. Faust
If there were no night, we would not appreciate the day, nor could we see the stars and the vastness of the heavens. We must partake of the bitter with the sweet. There is a divine purpose in the adversities we encounter every day. They prepare, they purge, they purify, and thus they bless.
James E. Faust
The dignity of self is greatly enhanced by looking upward in the search for holiness. Like the giant trees, we should reach up for the light. The most important source of light we can come to know is the gift of the Holy Ghost. It is the source of inner strength and peace.
James E. Faust
In the enriching of marriage, the big things are the little things. There must be constant appreciation for each other and thoughtful demonstration of gratitude. A couple must encourage and help each other grow. Marriage is a joint quest for the good, the beautiful, and the divine
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
May we dedicate our lives to serving the Lord and not worry about offending the devil.
James E. Faust
I believe that God has opened up these treasures on intelligence to enhance His purposes on the earth.
James E. Faust
What are we doing to keep the light shining in our own eyes and countenances Much of that light comes from our discipline dedication and consecration.
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
Happiness in marriage and parenthood can exceed a thousand times any other happiness
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
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
If you take each challenge one step at a time, with faith in every footstep, your strength and understanding will increase.
James E. Faust
