It's not how we look, it's how we see

It is better to Look Up!

"Sometimes, of all the people in the world, the one who is the hardest to forgive—as well as perhaps the one who is most in need of our forgiveness—is the person looking back at us in the mirror."

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

"The Lord looks upon the light we have received, the desires of our hearts, and our actions, and when we repent and seek His forgiveness, He forgives. As we consider our own lives and the lives of our loved ones and acquaintances, we should be equally willing to forgive ourselves and others."

 Craig A. Cardon

"Whenever we are inclined to feel burdened down with the blows of life's fight, let us remember that others have passed the same way, have endured, and then have overcome."  

 Thomas S. Monson

"Every day brings something beautiful if we are just willing to look up and see it." 

Marjorie P. Hinckley

"Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see the beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead." ... Remember, "It is better to look up" with gratitude and love, and in this way—see God moving in His majesty and power! 

Louisa M. Alcoot

"In order to be guided in life's journey and have the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost, we must have a "hearing ear" and a "seeing eye," both directed upward. We must act on the direction we receive. We must look up and step up. And as we do, I know we will cheer up, for God wants us to be happy." 

Carl B. Cook

"Jesus Christ has commanded us, 'Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not.' Doubt, fear, and worry indicate we have taken all of life's burdens and anxieties on ourselves. When plagued by thoughts that you are inadequate, confidently say, 'I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.' Then as you 'cheerfully do all things that lie in your power,' you can rest assured that the Lord will do the remainder and things will work out all right."

Anthony D. Perkins

"With our hands to the plow, looking forward; with our eyes to the light, looking upward; we enter into our 'Father's business' with fear and trembling and love. We know our Heavenly Father lives. We know his glorified Son Jesus Christ lives. And we know his work is divine."
