More quotes by 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 learn to do by doing.
Spencer W. Kimball
If you are going to err, err on the side of mercy.
Spencer W. Kimball
There are many upright and faithful who live all the commandments and whose lives and prayers keep the world from destruction.
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
Some of the greatest sermons that have ever been preached were preached by the singing of a song.
Spencer W. Kimball
We are not measured by the trials we meet -- only by those we overcome.
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
What relief! What comfort! What joy! Those laden with transgressions and sorrows and sin may be forgiven and cleansed and purified if they will return to their Lord, learn of him, and keep his commandments
Spencer W. Kimball

In my office...I have a little sign and it says, 'Do it!' I suppose if I have learned anything in life, it is that we are to keep moving, keep trying-as long as we breathe! If we do, we will be surprised at how much more can still be done.
Spencer W. Kimball
Peace, sweet peace finally comes to men when they humbly yield to the gentle pressure of the Spirit.
Spencer W. Kimball
Develop discipline of self so that you do not have to decide and re-decide what you will do when you are confronted with the same temptation time and time again. You need only decide some things once.
Spencer W. Kimball
By one means or another, the swiftest method of rejection of the holy prophets has been to find a pretext, however false or absurd, to dismiss the man so that his message could also be dismissed.
Spencer W. Kimball
I have learned that it is by serving that we learn how to serve. When we engaged in the service of our fellowmen, not only do our deeds assist them but we put our own problems in fresher perspective. When we concern ourselves more with others, there is less time to be concerned with ourselves
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
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
O timid one, awaken, exert yourself, draw back the curtains your training and background have hung over the windows of your soul.
Spencer W. Kimball
There are great challenges ahead of us, giant opportunities to be met. I welcome that exciting prospect and feel to say to the Lord, humbly, 'Give me this MOUNTAIN,' give me these challenges.
Spencer W. Kimball
Marriage is perhaps the most vital of all the decisions and has the most far reaching effects.
