More quotes by Joseph B. Wirthlin
Many of the most important and life-changing moments of my life occurred when I was a young man. The lessons I learned then formed my character and shaped my destiny.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
If you feel that Heavenly Father is not listening to your petitions, ask yourself if you are listening to the cries of the poor, the sick, the hungry, and the afflicted all around you.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
The more we focus on the things we don’t have, the more unhappy and more resentful we become.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Gratitude is a mark of a noble soul and a refined character. We like to be around those who are grateful. They tend to brighten all around them. They make others feel better about themselves. They tend to be more humble, more joyful, more likable.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
There is no real joy that does not involve self-denial and self-discipline
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Love is the beginning, the middle, and the end of the pathway of discipleship. It comforts, counsels, cures, and consoles. It leads us through valleys of darkness and through the veil of death. In the end love leads us to the glory and grandeur of eternal life.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Sometimes the greatest love is not found in the dramatic scenes that poets and writers immortalize. Often, the greatest manifestations of love are the simple acts of kindness and caring we extend to those we meet along the path of life.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
You should look ahead now and decide what you want to do with your lives. Fix clearly in your mind what you want to be one year from now, five years, ten years, and beyond. Write your goals and review them regularly. Keep them before you constantly, record your progress, and revise them as circumstances dictate.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Kindness is the essence of greatness and the fundamental characteristic of the noblest men and women I have known. Kindness is a passport that opens doors and fashions friends. It softens hearts and molds relationships that can last lifetimes.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
There is no defeat except for those who give up.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Note that charity is given only to those who seek it, only to those who earnestly pray for it, only to those who are disciples of Christ. Before we can be filled with this pure love, we must start at the beginning with the first principle of the gospel. We must have first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
If we approach adversities wisely, our hardest times can be times of greatest growth, which in turn can lead toward times of greatest happiness.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Each choice has a consequence. Each consequence a destination.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
I know that each of us has much to do. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed by the tasks we face. But if we keep our priorities in order, we can accomplish all that we should. We can endure to the end regardless of temptations, problems, and challenges.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Faith is not so much something we believe faith is something we live.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
As you overcome adversity in your life, you will become stronger. Then you will be better able to help others -those who are working, in their turn, to find a safe harbor from the storms that rage about them.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Let us strive for personal, practical integrity in every endeavor, regardless of how mundane or inconsequential it may seem.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Integrity means always doing what is right and good, regardless of the immediate consequences.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Sometimes those who start out the slowest end up going the farthest.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
The Lord is well aware of our mortality. He knows our weaknesses. He understands the challenges of our everyday lives. He has great empathy for the temptations of earthly appetites and passions.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
