Image
A father who finds it difficult to express his love vocally for his children may need, at first, to be humbly obedient in holding family home evenings in order to help him to discover, or to increase, his appreciation for his children. Next can come to him the courage to say I love you to each one.

Blessed is he who will not be offended

Mother lode of learning.

Image
Perfect love is perfectly patient.
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
When we rejoice in beautiful scenery, great art, and great music, it is but the flexing of instincts acquired in another place and another time.
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
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
How myopic it is to view His ministry as all crucifixion and no resurrection!
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
How could there be refining fires without our enduring some heat?
Neal A. Maxwell
Image
I know sanctification comes not with any particular calling, but with genuine acts of service, often for which there is no specific calling.
