More quotes by Sheri L. Dew
There is one thing the power of God and the power of Satan have in common: Neither can influence us unless we allow them to.
Sheri L. Dew
I had a lot of friends who were boys. I played ball with them, but we didn't date. They didn't ask me that much because I wasn't cute enough or because I didn't drink or party.
Sheri L. Dew
We don't really know what we believe in or care about until what we believe in or care about is threatened, challenged, or measured.
Sheri L. Dew
Everything that's important - you can take with you.
Sheri L. Dew
Because again, if Lucifer can make an aberration seem normal- or better yet, evil seem normal, he has made striking inroads.
Sheri L. Dew
I was raised on a farm in Kansas where we lived next door to my Grandma Dew, and I was her shadow. We went everywhere together - to the bank, the doctor, the Early Bird Garden Club, and to an endless procession of Church meetings.
Sheri L. Dew
I can't imagine pain greater than stepping across the veil and realizing I had not done what I came here to do - or realizing that I had given up my life to little or nothing, only then to find that it was gone. p 3
Sheri L. Dew
Its not living the gospel thats hard. Its life thats hard...How often do we make the mistake of talking to our youth about how hard it is...Shouldn't we instead be focusing on the doctrine of joy...? p 106
Sheri L. Dew
You were born to lead as mothers and fathers, because nowhere is righteous leadership more crucial than in the family.
Sheri L. Dew
Look to the Lord and not to the world for your ideas and ideals about men and women.
Sheri L. Dew
No marriage or family, no ward or stake is likely to reach its full potential until husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, men and women work together in unity of purpose.
Sheri L. Dew
For the Holy Ghost blesses us with optimism and wisdom at times of challenge that we simply cannot muster on our own.
Sheri L. Dew
We must each walk through life on our own, but we don't have to do it alone. God wants a powerful people. He gives His power to those who are faithful. We have a sacred obligation to seek after the power of God and then to use that power as He directs. And when we have the power of God with us, nothing is impossible.
Sheri L. Dew
Do you think there is any chance the Lord would have inspired his prophets to prophesy about us, only to then take a chance on the outcome of the latter days by sending men and women he couldn't count on? There is no chance - zero chance - He would have done that.
Sheri L. Dew
Noble and great. Courageous and determined. Faithful and fearless. That is who you are and who you have always been. And understanding it can change your life, because this knowledge carries a confidence that cannot be duplicated any other way.
Sheri L. Dew
I always felt big and unattractive.
Sheri L. Dew
I invite you to consider anew what you know and what you have what you are here for and where you are going and how you are going to do what you have come here to do. p 13
Sheri L. Dew
The Lord has set no limits on what He is willing to teach us and give us. We are the only ones who set limits--through our neglect our disobedience or ignorance. We are in large measure the ones who determine what we will learn and experience in mortality, and what we will receive eternally.
Sheri L. Dew
The compelling truth of the Restoration is that the heavens are open. This Church is a Church of revelation. Our challenge is not one in getting the Lord to speak to us. Our challenge is learning to hear what He has to say.
Sheri L. Dew
Life is a test. It is only a test--meaning that's all it is. Nothing more, but nothing less. It is a test of our convictions and priorities, our faith and faithfulness, our patience and resilience, and in the end, our ultimate desires. It is a test to determine if we want to be part of the kingdom of God more than we want anything else.
Sheri L. Dew
