Quotes from Modern Day Prophets

I love to quote our Prophets of old and the present day Prophets as well. I hope you enjoy this post today and take the time to open up your scriptures to find answers to your daily problems and add light to your day. Have a wonderful day everyone!

QUOTE OF THE DAY: Gordon B. Hinckley

"May I remind us . . . that if only each of us would reflect occasionally on that Christ-given mandate [Matthew 7:12] and make an effort to observe it, this would be a different world. There would be greater happiness in our homes; there would be kinder feelings among our associates; there would be much less of litigation and a greater effort to compose differences. There would be a new measure of love and appreciation and respect. "There would be more generous hearts, more thoughtful consideration and concern, and a greater desire to spread the gospel of peace and to advance the work of salvation among the children of men" (The Teachings of Gordon B. Hinckley, p. 240). QUOTE OF THE DAY: Howard W. Hunter "James tells us that true religion is a devotion to God, demonstrated by love and compassion for fellowmen, coupled with unworldliness. Such a statement seems too simple to be sufficient, but in its simplicity it speaks an important truth. Restated, it may be said that true religion consists not only in refraining from evil (that is, remaining unspotted), but in deliberately and purposefully doing acts of kindness and service to others" (The Teachings of Howard W. Hunter, p. 263). Oh! I almost forgot! Today might just be the day our son Ryan receives his mission call! I'll make sure at post an announcement for all to read, if in fact it is! Where do you think he'll be called to? Feel free to post your guess in the comment section. This will be fun! Valora,
