- We need to remember that there is a difference between interest and mere curiosity.
- Most people will not read or focus on more than just a few important facts at one time.
- The best way to answer people's interest can be by how we live, how we radiate the joy of the gospel in our lives, how we treat others, and how sincerely we follow the teachings of Christ.
Joseph B. Wirthlin -The Great Commandment
- Nothing you do makes much of a difference if you do not have charity.
- Love is the beginning, the middle, and the end of the pathway of discipleship. It comforts, counsels, cures, and consoles. It leads us through valleys of darkness and through the veil of death. In the end love leads us to the glory and grandeur of eternal life.
- Sometimes the greatest love is not found in the dramatic scenes that poets and writers immortalize. Often, the greatest manifestations of love are the simple acts of kindness and caring we extend to those we meet along the path of life.
- True love lasts forever. It is eternally patient and forgiving. It believes, hopes, and endures all things.
- There is no pain it (Christlike love) cannot soften, no bitterness it cannot remove, no hatred it cannot alter.
- We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever.
- Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming.
Bruce D. Porter -A Broken Heart and a Contrite Spirit
- When we yield our hearts to the Lord, the attractions of the world simply lose their luster.
Erich W. Kopischke -Preach My Gospel--the Unifying Tool between Members and Missionaries
- Go ye into the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Michael J. Teh -Out of Small Things
- Be not weary in well-doing, for ye are laying the foundation of a great work. And out of the small things proceedeth that which is great.
- Serving others need not come from spectacular events. Often it is the simple daily act that gives comfort, uplifts, encourages, sustains, and brings a smile to others.
Keith K. Hilbig -Quench Not the Spirit Which Quickens the Inner Man
- Quench not the Spirit
- We too must be careful not to hinder, disregard, or quench the Spirit in our lives.
- The path to eternal life is not a plateau, Rather, it is an incline, ever onward and upward.
- Draw near unto me and I will draw near unto you.
- Seek me diligently and ye shall find me.
- Live in the Spirit.
Jeffrey R. Holland -The Only True God and Jesus Christ Whom He Hath Sent
- If the idea of an embodied God is repugnant, why are the central doctrines and singularly most distinguishing characteristics of all Christianity the Incarnation, the Atonement, and the physical Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ? If having a body is not only not needed but no desirable by Deity, why did the Redeemer of mankind redeem His body, redeeming it from the grasp of death and the grave, guaranteeing it would never again be separated from His spirit in time or eternity. Any who dismiss the concept of an embodied God dismiss both the mortal and the resurrected Christ.
Russell M. Nelson -Scriptural Witnesses
- Whoso cometh unto me with a broken heart and a contrite spirit, him will I baptize with fire and with the Holy Ghost.
- I have come unto the world to bring redemption unto the world, to save the world from sin.
Until you next read these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
