Temples are more than stone and mortar. They are filled with faith and fasting. They are built of trials and testimonies. They are sanctified by sacrifice and service.
We will never regret the kind words spoken or the affection shown. Rather, our regrets will come if such things are omitted from our relationships with those who mean the most to us.
Courage becomes a worthwhile and meaningful virtue when it is regarded not so much as a willingness to die manfully but as a determination to live decently.
LOVE should be the very heart of FAMILY life.
To be angry is to yield to the influence of Satan. No one can make us angry. It is our choice. If we desire to have a proper spirit with us at all times, we must choose to refrain from becoming angry. I testify that such is possible.
May we muster courage at the crossroads, courage for the conflicts, courage to say, “no,” courage to say, “yes,” for courage counts.
Anger does not solve anything; it builds nothing.
Our most significant opportunities will be found in times of greatest difficulty.
Be of good cheer. The future is as bright as your faith.
The Lord is in the details of our lives.
Vice never leads to virtue. Hate never promotes love. Cowardice never gives courage. Doubt never inspires faith.
Wishing will not make it so. The Lord expects our thinking. He expects our action. He expects our labors. He expects our testimonies. He expects our devotion.
Our lives will depend upon the decisions which we make, for decisions determine destiny.
We are a temple-building and a temple-attending people.
One cannot remember mother and forget God.
Our Heavenly Father is aware of our needs and will help us as we call upon Him for assistance. I believe that no concern of ours is too small or insignificant. The Lord is in the details of our lives.
I urge you to live within your means. One cannot spend more than one earns and remain solvent. I promise you that you will then be happier than you would be if you were constantly worrying about how to make the next payment on nonessential debt.
As we remember prayer and take time to turn to the scriptures, our lives will be infinitely more blessed and our burdens will be made lighter.
I think there is no place in the world where I feel closer to the Lord than in one of His holy temples.
If you are persistent, you will succeed.
