Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever

 
“In our own storms in life the Savior is our solace and our sanctuary.
If we seek peace, we must come unto Him.”
Joseph B. Wirthlin
 
 
“When we are grounded in the gospel and when we are prepared, we can weather any storm.”
Stanley G. Ellis
 
 
“If as a people we will build and sustain one another, the Lord will bless
us with the strength to weather every storm and continue to move forward
through every adversity.”
Gordon B. Hinckley
 
 
“None of us will avoid the storms of life. The winds and the waves will periodically interfere with our chosen course. The laws of the gospel can bring us back on course and guide us to peaceful waters.”
 
Marvin J. Ashton
 
 
“There are depths in the sea which the storms that lash the surface into fury never reach. They who reach down into the depths of life where, in the stillness, the voice of God is heard, have the stabilizing power which carries them poised and serene through the hurricane of difficulties.”
 
Spencer W. Kimball
 
 
Don’t give up on that [wayward] boy or girl; one day he may, like the Prodigal Son, return to the home from which he came, as a ship in a storm returns to a safe harbor.”
 
Harold B. Lee
 
 
“Be grateful. Every day is a new canvas a new opportunity. ‘My plea is that we stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. I am suggesting that as we go through life, we ‘accentuate the positive.’ I am asking that we look a little deeper for the good, that we still our voices of insult and sarcasm, that we more generously compliment and endorse virtue and effort’
Joseph B. Wirthlin
 
 
“Every soul that walks the earth, you and I, all of us-whether rich or poor, whether good or bad, young or old-every one of us is going to be tested and tried by storms of adversity, winds that we must defend ourselves against. And the only ones who won’t fail will be those whose houses have been built upon the rock. And what’s the rock? It’s the rock of obedience to the principles and teachings of the gospel of Jesus Christ as the Master taught.”
Harold B. Lee
 
 
“I testify to you that our promised blessings are beyond measure. Though the storm clouds may gather, though the rains may pour down upon us, our knowledge of the gospel and our love of our Heavenly Father and of our Savior will comfort and sustain us and bring joy to our hearts as we walk uprightly and keep the commandments. There will be nothing in this world that can defeat us.”
Thomas S. Monson
 
 
“Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us-even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever.”
Joseph B. Wirthlin
