More quotes by Spencer W. Kimball
The time will come when only those who believe deeply and actively in the family will be able to preserve their families in the midst of the gathering evil around us.
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
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
If we live in such a way that the considerations of eternity press upon us, we will make better decisions.
Spencer W. Kimball
As we give, we find that sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven, and in the end, we learn that it was no sacrifice at all.
Spencer W. Kimball
Love is like a flower, and like the body, it needs constant feeding...And with love, also, cannot be expected to last forever unless it is continually fed with portions of love, the manifestation of esteem and admiration, the expressions of gratitude, and the consideration of unselfishness.
Spencer W. Kimball
Get a notebook, my young folks, a journal that will last through all time, and maybe the angels may quote from it for eternity. Begin today and write in it your goings and comings, your deepest thoughts, your achievements and your failures, your associations and your triumphs, your impressions and your testimonies.
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
Do not make small goals because they do not have the magic to stir men's souls.
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
They who get off on tangents and ride hobby horses to death are they who become fanatic. Let them understand that they must be tolerant of others faults but never accept as justifiable their own.
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
Procrastination-thou wretched thief of time and opportunity!
Spencer W. Kimball
Destroy the seed and the plant will never grow. Man alone, of all creatures of earth, can change his thought pattern and become the architect of his destiny.
Spencer W. Kimball
Some of the greatest sermons that have ever been preached were preached by the singing of a song.
Spencer W. Kimball
Success should not necessarily be gauged by always reaching the goal set, but by progress and attainment.
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
I am not afraid of death. What I am afraid of is that I will meet the Saviour and He will say, 'You could have done better'
Spencer W. Kimball
The leaven of true leadership cannot lift others unless we are with and serve those to be led.
