Image
We, more than others, should carry jumper and tow cables not only in our cars, but also in our hearts, by which means we can send the needed boost or charge of encouragement or the added momentum to mortal neighbors.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
There will be many fine and wonderful men and women of all races and creeds-and of no religious creeds at all-who will lead decent and useful lives.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Ultimate hope constitutes the anchor of the soul.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
We should certainly count our blessings, but we should also make our blessings count.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
God's extraordinary work is most often done by ordinary people in the seeming obscurity of a home and family.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
We can be walking witnesses and standing sermons to which objective onlookers can say a quiet amen.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
The issue for us is trusting God enough to trust also His timing. If we can truly believe He has our welfare at heart, may we not let His plans unfold as He thinks best?
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
It is extremely important for you to believe in yourselves, not only for what you are now, but for what you have the power to become.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Patient endurance permits us to cling to our faith in the Lord and our faith in His timing when we are being tossed about by the surf of circumstance. Even when a seeming undertow grasps us, somehow, in the tumbling, we are being carried forward, though battered and bruised.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
I am as I am, And so is a stone Them that don't like me, Must leave me alone.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Daily hope is vital, since the ‘Winter Quarters’ of our lives are not immediately adjacent to our promised land either. An arduous trek still awaits, but hope spurs weary disciples on.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
We are often not only to slow to get on our knees, but to quick to rise from them.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
The authority of example and considerations of character, unlike pudding, are not whipped up in an instant.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Anger should never be an overnight guest.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Mercy can purge the soul of sin, making room for a fresh start. Truth is vital in order that we have an unvarying standard by which to determine what we are to be and to do and what we are to rid ourselves of. All the cardinal virtues, therefore, carry their own intrinsic as well as outward reward. A merciful man does do good to his own soul.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Those few members who desert the cause are abandoning an oasis to search for water in the desert.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
I thank the Father that His Only Begotten Son did not say in defiant protest at Calvary, My body is my own! I stand in admiration of women today who resist the fashion of abortion, by refusing to make the sacred womb a tomb!
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
We should not assume however, that just because something is unexplainable by us, it is unexplainable.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
Each of us is an innkeeper who decides if there is room for Jesus!

There is no democracy of facts.
