"Faith is to fear what light is to darkness. They can't coexist. When light appears, darkness wanes. When one takes on the armor of God, fear retreats into the shadows."

We are the children of God, and that He has actually given His angels—invisible beings of power and might—charge concerning us, and they watch over us and have us in their keeping.

"There are forces that work beyond our sight. Sometimes we think the whole job is up to us, forgetful that there are loved ones beyond our sight who are thinking about us and our children… that influences from beyond are constantly working to try to help us when we do all we can."
Harold B. Lee
"We don't pray because we're worthy; we pray because we need help. We don't go to church [and take the sacrament] because we're perfect; the church is a hospital. We go because we're willing to be perfected. We don't go on a mission [or to the temple] because we've 'made it;' we go because it's an environment in which God makes us better. We're not earning a treasure in heaven, but learning to treasure heavenly things."

"In our own lives, when the rains descend the floods come and the winds blow, we can be more certain of this than of any other thing in the universe: Our faith in Christ, our foundation in Christ, our building on the rock of Christ will be a sure foundation that will withstand every grievance and every pain. He is the foundation whereon if we build, we cannot fail."

A great reminder that "Adversity can strengthen and [improve] us. As with the butterfly, [challenges are] necessary to build character. When we sail through troubled waters, we need to know the place of [difficulty] in shaping divine potential. Look beyond [your] present suffering and see [your] struggles as a temporary chrysalis. Have faith and trust in Heavenly Father to see how, after a little season, [you] can emerge from [your] trials more refined and glorious."

Remember that once you believe it—you'll see it! "Faith is things which are hoped for…; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith"
