Serving throughout the world is a great missionary force going about doing good. Missionaries teach truth. They dispel darkness. They spread joy. They bring precious souls to Christ.
Prayer can solve more problems, alleviate more suffering, prevent more transgression, and bring about greater peace and contentment in the human soul than can be obtained in any other way.
We are reminded that anger doesn’t solve anything. It builds nothing, but it can destroy everything.
Dedicated missionary service returns a dividend of eternal joy which extends throughout mortality and into eternity.
No temptation, no pressure, no enticing can overcome us unless we allow such. If we make the wrong choice, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
The passage of time has not altered the capacity of the Redeemer to change lives.
Look to the lighthouse of the Lord. There is no fog so dense, no night so dark, no gale so strong, no mariner so lost but what its beacon light can rescue.
I extol those who, with loving care and compassionate concern, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and house the homeless. He who notes the sparrow’s fall will not be unmindful of such service.
None of us will honor our Heavenly Father and our Savior more than by serving as a devoted, compassionate missionary, “For them that honour me I will honour.”
The temples are a refuge from life’s storms even a never-failing beacon guiding us to safety.
The most constant thing is change.
On occasion we need to make a second effort – and a third effort, and a fourth effort, and as many degrees of effort as may be required to accomplish what we strive to achieve.
Our thinking will automatically improve when we remember the words of Paul: ’know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and the spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Man has made remarkable strides in conquering outer space, but how futile have been his efforts in conquering inner space- the space in our hearts and minds of men.
Should doubt knock at your doorway, just say to those skeptical, disturbing, rebellious thoughts, I propose to stay with my faith, with the faith of my people.
Cooperativeness is not so much learning how to get along with others as taking the kinks out of ourselves, so that others can get along with us.
Our Father’s commitment to us, His children, is unwavering. Indeed He softens the winters of our lives, but He also brightens our summers.
The Lord shapes the back to bear the burden placed upon it.
I am certain that the Lord, who notes the fall of a sparrow, looks with compassion upon those who have been called upon to part, even temporarily, from their precious children.
Don’t forget: one of the saddest things in life is wasted talent.
