Wow What a Ride

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "Wow what a ride!"

Another Kind of Faith

There is another kind of faith, rare indeed. This is the kind of faith that causes things to happen. It is the kind of faith that is worthy and prepared and unyielding, and it calls forth things that otherwise would not be. It is the kind of faith that moves gradual growth. It is a marvelous, even a transcendent power, a power as real and as invisible as electricity. Directed and channeled, it has great effect... This kind of Faith is the fruit that comes from consistently living in the light.

Courage Doesn't Roar

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."

Do Not Give Up Hope

I have met people who have lost all hope. Repentance, they feel, is beyond their reach and forgiveness outside their grasp. Such do not understand the cleansing power of the Atonement. Or, if they do understand, they have not internalized the meaning of Jesus Christ's suffering in Gethsemane and on the cross. For any of us to give up hope for the purifying of our lives is to disavow the depth, power, and extent of His suffering on our behalf.

Eternal Consequences

I can't stress too strongly that decisions determine destiny. You can't make eternal decisions without eternal consequences.

Close My Eyes and Leap

The jump is so frightening between where I am and where I want to be... because of all I may become I will close my eyes and leap!

True Strength

Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.

Washing Machines

Problems are like washing machines; They twist us, spin us, knock us around, but in the end we come out cleaner brighter and better than before.
