One of Scott's favorite quotes is:"Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, P.326 “The spirits of the just are exalted to a greater and more glorious work; hence, they are blessed in their departure to the world of spirits…they are not far from us, and know and understand our thoughts, feelings, and motions…” "God did not promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but HE did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light along the way." "Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.” Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all." Norman Vincent Peale "Most unhappiness comes from trading what you want most in life for what you can have in the moment." "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." Winston Churchill "It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles; The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly..." Theodore Roosevelt "Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not... Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent." Calvin Coolidge From the Lion King... Mufasa: {Quietly at first} Simba . . . Simba: Father? Mufasa: Simba, you have forgotten me. Simba: No. How could I? Mufasa: You have forgotten who you are, and so have forgotten me. Look inside yourself, Simba. You are more than what you have become. You must take your place in the Circle of Life. Simba: How can I go back? I'm not who I used to be. Mufasa: Remember who you are. You are my son, and the one true king. Mufasa: Remember who you are. Simba: No. Please! Don't leave me. Mufasa: Remember... Simba: Father! Mufasa: Remember... Simba: Don't leave me. Mufasa: Remember . . . ‎"The scriptures are pure truth. Scriptures can calm an agitated soul, giving peace, hope and a restoration of confidence in one's ability to overcome the challenges of life." Richard G. Scott ‎"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry… Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future." President Gordon B. Hinckley There is another thing you can do. You can study the word of God, not for yourself alone but to be an emissary of the Lord Jesus Christ to all the world. When you increase your power to teach the gospel, you are qualifying to help Heavenly Father in gathering His children. As you do that, another blessing will come. Should the need ever come in family life in this world, or in the world to come, to draw back lost sheep, you will have received more power than you may now recognize. Henry B. Eyring "This topic of judging others could actually be taught in a two-word sermon. When it comes to...Expand for more
hating, gossiping, ignoring, ridiculing, holding grudges, or wanting to cause harm, please apply the following: Stop it! It’s that simple. We simply have to stop judging others and replace judgmental thoughts and feelings with a heart full of love for God and His children. God is our Father. We are His children. We are all brothers and sisters. I don’t know exactly how to articulate this point of not judging others with sufficient eloquence, passion, and persuasion to make it stick. I can quote scripture, I can try to expound doctrine, and I will even quote a bumper sticker I recently saw. It was attached to the back of a car whose driver appeared to be a little rough around the edges, but the words on the sticker taught an insightful lesson. It read, “Don’t judge me because I sin differently than you.” President Dieter F. Uchtdorf “God does not look on the outward appearance. I believe that He doesn’t care one bit if we live in a castle or a cottage, if we are handsome or homely, if we are famous or forgotten. Though we are incomplete, God loves us completely. Though we are imperfect, He loves us perfectly. Though we may feel lost and without compass, God’s love encompasses us completely." -Dieter F. Uchtdorf Richard G. Scott ~ "I wonder if we can ever really fathom the immense power of prayer until we encounter an overpowering, urgent problem and realize that we are powerless to resolve it. Then we will turn to our Father in humble recognition of our total dependence on Him. It helps to find a secluded place where our feelings can be vocally expressed as long and as intensely as necessary. I have done that. Once I had an experience that caused me immense anxiety. It had nothing to do with disobedience or transgression but with a vitally important human relationship. For some time I poured my heart out in urgent prayer. Yet try as I might, I could find no solution, no settling of the powerful stirring within me. I pled for help from that Eternal Father I have come to know and trust completely. I could see no path that would provide the calm that is my blessing generally to enjoy. Sleep overcame me. When I awoke, I was totally at peace. Again I knelt in solemn prayer and asked, “Lord, how is it done?” In my heart, I knew the answer was His love and His concern for me. Such is the power of sincere prayer to a compassionate Father." April 2007 General Conference “The battle for self-discipline may leave you a bit bruised and battered but always a better person. Self-discipline is a rigorous process at best; too many of us want it to be effortless and painless. Should temporary setbacks afflict us, a very significant part of our struggle for self-discipline is the determination and the courage to try again...Eternal life in the kingdom of our Father is your goal, and self-discipline will surely be required if you are to achieve it.” President Thomas S. Monson "God loves us so He makes us the gift of suffering. Through suffering, we release our hold on the toys of the world and know our true good lies in another world. We're like blocks of stone, out of which the Sculptor carves the forms of men. The blows of His chisel, which hurt us so much, are what make us perfect. The suffering in the world is not the failure of God's love for us; it is that love in action." - C.S. Lewis "Never get discouraged, whatever difficulties might surround you. If you were sunk in the lowest pit of Nova Scotia, and all the Rocky Mountain piled on top of you, ought not to be discouraged, but hang on, exercise faith and keep up good courage and you should come out on top of the heap." - Joseph Smith They say it takes a minute to find a special person. An hour to appreciate them. A day to love them. And an entire life to forget them.".
