Much More Some Days Than Others...

Homesick

In a room full of people

Or off by myself,

In humble circumstances

Or amid worldly wealth,

A pre-mortal yearning

Deep inside of me

Reminds me-home in heaven

Is where I long to be.

Some of My Favorite Quotes

In the gospel of Jesus Christ, you have help from both sides of the veil, and you must never forget that if our eyes could be opened we would see horses and chariots of fire as far as the eye can see riding at reckless speed to come to our protection. They will always be there, these armies of heaven, in defense of Abraham's seed.
-Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

The time will come when only those who believe deeply and actively in the family will be able to preserve their families in the midst of the gatherings of evil around us.
-Spencer W. Kimball

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

How would your behavior change if you were only concerned about looking good to God? -Author unknown

Real disciples absorb the fiery darts of the adversary by holding aloft the quenching shield of faith with one hand, while holding to the iron rod with the other. There should be no mistaking, it will take both hands!
-Elder Neal A. Maxwell

To A Beautiful Person...
If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.
If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.
He sends you flowers ever spring.
He sends you a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk to Him, He listens.
Face it friend...He's crazy about you!
God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain; but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

Make sure the path for your own feet to walk to eternal life, and take as many with you as you can. Take them as they are, understand them as they are and deal with them as they are; look at them as God looks at them, and then you can love them as He would love them.
-Brigham Young
