More quotes by Spencer W. Kimball
God does watch over us and does notice us, but it usually through someone else that he meets our needs.
Spencer W. Kimball
The only way we can keep our freedom is to work at it. Not some of us. All of us. Not some of the time, but all of the time. So if you value your citizenship and you want to keep it for yourself and your children and their children, give it your faith, your belief, and give it your active support in civic affairs.
Spencer W. Kimball
You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. There may be a flash of illumination here and a story of faithfulness there you should truthfully record your real self and not what other people may see in you.
Spencer W. Kimball
Now is the time to set your life's goals. Now is the time to set your standards firmly and then hold to them throughout your life.
Spencer W. Kimball
The burning bushes, the smoking mountains, . . . the Cumorahs, and the Kirtlands were realities but they were the exceptions. . . . Always expecting the spectacular, many will miss entirely the constant flow of revealed communication.
Spencer W. Kimball
What are we to fear when the Lord is with us? Can we not take the Lord at his word and exercise a particle of faith in him?
Spencer W. Kimball
We are not measured by the trials we meet -- only by those we overcome.
Spencer W. Kimball
I personally regard all of the houses of the Lord as the work of Jehovah, initiated by him, built by him, designed by him, and dedicated to him and his program.
Spencer W. Kimball
We are, on the whole, an idolatrous people...
Spencer W. Kimball
Profanity is the effort of a feeble brain to express itself forcibly.
Spencer W. Kimball
Your own private journal should record the way you face up to challenges that beset you. Do not suppose life changes so much that your experiences will not be interesting to your posterity. Experiences of work, relations with people, and an awareness of the rightness and wrongness of actions will always be relevant.
Spencer W. Kimball
There is no doubt that the life one leads, and the thoughts one thinks are registered plainly in his face.
Spencer W. Kimball
Only when you lift a burden, God will lift your burden. Divine paradox this! The man who staggers and falls because his burden is too great can lighten that burden by taking on the weight of another's burden. You get by giving, but your part of giving must be given first.
Spencer W. Kimball
If joy and peace and rewards were instantaneously given the doer of good, there would be no evil-all would do good but not because of the rightness of doing good. There would be no test of strength, no development of character, no growth of powers, no free agency, only satanic controls.
Spencer W. Kimball
We ought to encourage our children to know their relatives. We need to talk of them, make effort to correspond with them, visit them, join family organizations, etc.
Spencer W. Kimball
We should be involved in quiet acts of selfless service.
Spencer W. Kimball
I am comforted by the assurance that there will be beautiful music in heaven, and for that I am most grateful.
Spencer W. Kimball
One of the most serious human defects in all ages is procrastination, an unwillingness to accept personal responsibilities now.
Spencer W. Kimball
I believe that the telephone and telegraph and other such conveniences were permitted by the Lord to be developed for the express purpose of building the kingdom. Others may use them for business, professional or other purposes, but basically they are to build the kingdom.
Spencer W. Kimball
There is nothing unholy or degrading about sexuality in itself, for by that means men and women join in a process of creation and in an expression of love
