Patience

"Patience is tied very closely to faith in our Heavenly Father. Actually, when we are unduly impatient, we are suggesting that we know what is best - better that does God. Or, at least, we are asserting that our timetable is better than His. Either way we are questioning the reality of God's omniscience."

- Elder Neal A. Maxwell

Came across this quote while studying Romans 5:1-5

Quote of the day

From my friend, Traci (editted slightly)

Quote of the day:
"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater.
If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby.
If you give her a house, she'll give you a home.
If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal.
If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart.
She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.
So, if you give her any 'crap', you better watch out!"

The Heart

"At the heart of silence is prayer.
At the heart of prayer is faith.
At the heart of faith is life.
At the heart of life is service."

- Mother Teresa

Liberty

"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time; the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them.


"In question of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.


"A wise and frugal government . . . shall restrain men from injuring one another; shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."
