We are greatly conscious of the fact that among the Lamanites - as well as among all peoples of other countries - we have a responsibility to see that the gospel touches their hearts and minds and that they understand it.

More quotes by 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
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
Any excuse for non-performance, no matter how valid, weakens character.
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
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
We are not measured by the trials we meet -- only by those we overcome.
Spencer W. Kimball
Sickness sometimes is a great blessing. People become angels through sickness.
Spencer W. Kimball
To be a righteous woman during the winding up scenes on this earth, before the second coming of our Savior, is an especially noble calling... She has been placed here to help to enrich, to protect, and to guard the home--which is society's basic and most noble institution.
Spencer W. Kimball
Homosexuality is an ugly sin, repugnant to those who find no temptation in it, as well as to many past offenders who are seeking a way out of its clutches. All such deviations from normal, proper heterosexual relationships are not merely unnatural but wrong in the sight of God.
Spencer W. Kimball
Being human, we would expel from our lives physical pain and mental anguish and assure ourselves of continual ease and comfort, but if we were to close the doors upon sorrow and distress, we might be excluding our greatest friends and benefactors. Suffering can make saints of people as they learn patience, long-suffering, and self-mastery.
Spencer W. Kimball
How could a person possibly become what he is not thinking? Nor is any thought, when persistently entertained, too small to have its effect. The 'divinity that shapes our ends' is indeed ourselves.
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
It is through repentance that the Lord Jesus Christ can work his healing miracle, infusing us with strength when we are weak, health when we are sick, hope when we are downhearted, love when we feel empty, and understanding when we search for truth.
Spencer W. Kimball
We should be involved in quiet acts of selfless service.
Spencer W. Kimball
It frequently happens that offenses are committed when the offender is not aware of it. Something he has said or done is misconstrued or misunderstood. The offended one treasures in his heart the offense, adding to it such other things as might give fuel to the fire and justify his conclusions.
Spencer W. Kimball
To be a mother is a woman's greatest vocation in life. She is a partner with God. No being has a position of such power and influence. She holds in her hands the destiny of nations, for to her comes the responsibility and opportunity of molding the nation's citizens.
Spencer W. Kimball
No amount of rationalizing can change God's laws. No amount of fashion designing can turn immodesty into virtue, and no amount of popularity can change sin into righteousness.
Spencer W. Kimball
My life is like my shoes, worn out by service.
Spencer W. Kimball
There isn't anything else more important than taking the gospel to the world.
Spencer W. Kimball
Procrastination-thou wretched thief of time and opportunity!
