Our need for morality

"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

-John Adams


"Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters."

- Benjamin Franklin



"Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt."

-Samuel Adams

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

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

Count your blessings!

Living in thanksgiving daily is a habit that will enrich our lives and the lives of those we l♥ve...



It isn't what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart.



It is impossible to feel grateful and depressed in the same moment.~ Naomi Williams



~Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive. Find a way to be thankful for your troubles and they can become your blessings.



I am thankful to all my friends, both cyber and demestic! May the Lord bless you and your families during this Thanksgiving Holiday season :) ♥ Hugs!

Cheerful and Happy

"I am determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may be in ~ for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of Our happiness depends on our dispositions and not on our circumstances."

- Martha Washington

Motivate For Good.

"Parents, work hard at the matter of creating atmosphere in your homes. Let your children be exposed to great minds, great ideas, everlasting truth, and those things which build and motivate for good."
-Gordon B. Hinckley

Quote

"He who trims himself to suit everyone will soon whittle himself away."
-Raymond Hull

He who values the merits of others, and in their pleasure take joy, even as though 'twere his own."

_Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
