Where love is, there God will be also

 

 

“Where love is, there is no disputation. Where love is, there is no contention.

Where love is, there God will be also.”

Thomas S. Monson

“Forgiveness plants and nourishes the seeds of Christlike love in both the giver and the receiver. Indeed, forgiveness, in its fullest expression, is synonymous with charity, the pure love of Christ.”

Roderick J. Linton

“Love is the catalyst that causes change. Love is the balm that brings healing to the soul.”

Thomas S. Monson

“The grateful man sees so much in the world to be thankful for, and with him the good outweighs the evil. Love overpowers jealousy, and light drives darkness out of his life. Pride destroys our gratitude and sets up selfishness in its place. How much happier we are in the presence of a grateful and loving soul, and how careful we should be to cultivate, through the medium of a prayerful life, a thankful attitude toward God and man!”

Joseph F. Smith

“We have trials to face because our Heavenly Father loves us. His purpose is to help us qualify for the blessing of living with Him and His Son, Jesus Christ, forever in glory and in families.”

Henry B. Eyring

The five most important words are these: I am proud of you.

The four most important words are these: What is your opinion?

The three most important words are these: If you please.

The two most important words are these: Thank you.

 “The single most important word is love.”

Thomas S. Monson

 

“Encounters with the Spirit are not merely emotional, they are enlightening. They can be felt, and they increase the intellect, enliven your understanding, and bring more light to you.

 

They do not merely leave you with your emotions touched.”

 

Denver C. Snuffer, Jr

 

“It is an interesting phenomenon,.., as we serve, our capacity to serve grows and our opportunities for service expand. And we learn the great secret to a happy, rewarding life that happiness, real happiness, doesn’t come in acquiring wealth or gaining notoriety or position. True, lasting happiness comes in service.”

Robert L. Backman

 “Stretching our souls in service helps us to rise above our cares, concerns, and challenges. As we focus our energies on lifting the burdens of others, something miraculous happens. Our own burdens diminish. We become happier. There is more substance to our lives.”

David Baxter

“When life’s labor is complete may we find that we have listened to the whispering of that still, small voice that always guides us in the path of righteousness, and know that it has meant for us the opening of the door to the Celestial kingdom, for ourselves and those we love, to go forward throughout the ages, … happy eternally.”

George Albert Smith

“Blessed are those who need no reasons other than their love for the Savior to keep his commandments.”

James E. Faust

“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…

 Thomas S. Monson

“Love is a process. Love is not a declaration. Love is not an announcement. Love is not a passing fancy. Love is not an expediency. Love is not a convenience. ‘If ye love me, keep my commandments’ [John 14:15] and ‘If ye love me feed my sheep’ [John 21:16] are God given proclamations that should remind us we can often best show our love through the processes of feeding and keeping.”

Marvin J. Ashton, Ensign

“God the Father is merciful and has infinite love for you despite your faults. Only the voice of Satan will cause you to feel of no value. In contrast, the Holy Ghost will cause you to feel ‘godly sorrow’ unto repentance in a manner that fills you with hope of positive change.”

Anthony D. Perkins

“…Love doesn’t grow like weeds or fall like rain. Love has its price. ‘God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life’ (John 3:16). That Son, even the Lord Jesus Christ, gave His life that we might have eternal life,

so great was His love for His Father and for us.”

Thomas S. Monson

“…Magnify God, love Him with all thy heart, might, mind and strength; then love our neighbor as ourselves; that when trials come we may endure them and not complain, but wait until God shall develop His purposes. Then we will see that there is no love like that of God for His suffering children; there is no mercy so broad, no purpose so grand, and great and noble as the purpose of God concerning His children. If we will do this, we will learn this eventually and we will bless God with all our hearts.”

Joseph F. Smith

“Through tears and trials, through fears and sorrows, through the heartache and loneliness of losing loved ones, there is assurance that life is everlasting. Our Lord and Savior is the living witness that such is so.”

Thomas S. Monson
