You brought it with you




"To live greatly, we must develop the capacity to face trouble with courage,

 disappointment with cheerfulness, and triumph with humility."

 Thomas S. Monson
If you believe in an unseen Christ,

you will believe in the unseen Christ like potential of others.

Pray as if everything depends on God.

Then work as if everything depends on you.

If God thought about you as much as you think about Him, where would you be?

Faith without works is like a bird without wings;

though she may hop with her companions on earth,

yet she will never fly with them to heaven.


The key to faith is what we are willing to sacrifice to obtain it.

Elder Cloward

       

"One of the gifts God has promised to all who earnestly seek Him is faith. 

'Faith is a gift of God bestowed as a reward for personal righteousness.

 It is always given when righteousness is present, and the greater the measure of obedience to

 God's laws the greater will be the endowment of faith.'

Elder Bruce R. McConkie


"Truly understood and properly practiced, faith is one of the grand and glorious powers of eternity.

It is a force powerful beyond our comprehension."

Joseph B. Wirthlin


Why worry when we can pray?


Don't keep the faith...........spread it around.


Faith can place a candle in the darkest night


Faith makes things possible ...........Not easy.


Faith sometimes requires  "Boldness...venturing out in front, going first,

standing in front of the mob, the congregation,...or

the hard eyed gaze of only one doubter."

N. Eldon Tanner

   

We see possibilities in others, but do we ever dream of the possibilities within ourselves?


Decide to like yourself.  Then do it!


You're the first person who needs to like you.


You did not come to this world to get yourself worth.

You brought it with you.

Ardeth Kapp


   

Your are a somebody, not a nobody.


People are like stained glass windows. 
They glow and sparkle when it's sunny and bright,
but when the sun goes down their true beauty is revealed
only if there is a light from within.



No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

Eleanor Roosevelt


Each of us came to this earth with a special mission to perform.

We may not know what it is, but our Heavenly Father knows.


Always remember the outside of a person doesn't usually tell the whole story.

Let us have gratitude for our friends. Our most cherished friend is our partner in marriage. This old world would be so much better off today if kindness and deference were daily a reflection of our gratitude for wife, for husband. The Lord spoke the word "friend" almost with a reverence. He said, "Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you." True friends put up with our idiosyncrasies.
They have a profound influence in our lives.
Thomas S. Monson
