- “Brothers and sisters, in this Church, we believe in the divine potential of all of God’s children and in our ability to become something more in Christ. In the Lord’s timing, it is not where we start but where we are headed that matters most. . . .We all have different intercepts in life—we start in different places with different life endowments. Some are born with high intercepts, full of opportunity. Others face beginning circumstances that are challenging and seem unfair. We then progress along a slope of personal progress. Our future will be determined far less by our starting point and much more by our slope. Jesus Christ sees divine potential no matter where we start.” —Elder Gilbert G. Clark, “Becoming More in Christ: The Parable of the Slope”, Liahona, November 2021.
- “I promise that each faith-filled step will be met with help from heaven” – Elder Bennett
- Our challenges, including those we create by our own decisions, are part of our test in mortality. . . . Our success is never measured by how strongly we are tempted but by how faithfully we respond. ---Elder Robert D. Hales, Ensign, May 2009, p.7
- A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them.
- From President Thomas S Monson talk, Ensign, Nov 2008, p.84: “Both abundance and lack [of abundance] exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend . . . when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present---love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us [happiness]---the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth.” Sarah Ban Breathnach
