There are divine things more beautiful than words can tell

 

 

"Deep inside the hardest doctrines lie the greatest pearls of great price!"

 

Neal A. Maxwell

 

 

The Son of God became a man to enable men to become sons of God.

 

C. S. Lewis

 

 

"We are sometimes so anxious about our personal images,

when it is His image we should have in our countenances."

 

Neal A. Maxwell

"To help others in the midst of our own pain is like the generosity of Jesus on the cross.

Empathy during agony is a portion of divinity."

Neal A. Maxwell

if it's Fair it isn't a Trial

Perfect love is perfectly patient

Neal A. Maxwell

"God has given us a challenge: Go down and live in that world, but don't become worldly. He has sent us here to be a light, to show our brothers and sisters

that it's possible to be surrounded by mud but choose not to wallow in it."

John Bytheway

 

  Blesson it's when you're able to view painful lessons as Blessings, a Blesson is what happens when you see the Blessing in the Lesson that your challenges have taught you.

 

 

The storms of life no more indicate the absence of God,

than clouds indicate the absence of the sun.

 

 

To live with gratitude ever in our Hearts is to touch Heaven

 

 

….there are divine things more beautiful than words can tell.

 

"Strength comes not from frantic activity but from being settled on a firm foundation of truth and light. It comes from placing our attention and efforts on the basics of the gospel of Jesus Christ. It comes from paying attention to the divine things that matter most."

"Patience permits us to cling to our faith in the Lord when we are tossed about by suffering as if by surf. When the undertow grasps us we will realize that we are somehow being carried forward even as we tumble. We are actually being helped even as we cry for help."

 

Neal A. Maxwell

 

 

"It seems God is always stretching those who meekly serve Him most. At times, His best pupils experience the most rigorous and continuous courses! Eventually, each father or son [or mother or daughter] who proves to be a "man [woman] of Christ" will thereby become a distinguished alumnus of life's school of affliction, graduating with honors."

 

Neal A. Maxwell

 

 

"Genuine hope helps us to be more loving even while the love of many waxes cold. We are to be more holy, even as the world ripens in iniquity; more courteous and patient in a coarsening world, and to be of strong hearts even when the hearts of others fail them."

 

Neal A. Maxwell

 

 

There are moments which mark our lives. Moments when we realize nothing will ever be the

Same and time is divided into two parts, before this, and after this.

 

Every moment is not equal. Some simply pass, while others determine the course of life. "There are certain mortal moments and minutes that matter. Certain hinge points in the history of each of us.  Some seconds are so decisive they shrink the soul, while others are spent, so as to stretch the soul."

 

 Neal A. Maxwell

 

 

"Patience is tied very closely to faith in God. Actually, when we are unduly impatient, we are suggesting that we know what is best, better than God or, at least, we are asserting that our timetable is better than his. We can grow in faith only if we are willing to wait patiently for God's purposes and patterns to unfold in our lives on his timetable."

 

Neal A. Maxwell

 

 

"Being of good cheer makes it possible for us to turn all of our sunsets into sunrises."
