Tolerance is a virtue, but, like all virtues, when exaggerated it transforms itself into a vice.
Boyd K. PackerOur lives are made up of thousands of everyday choices. Over the years these little choices will be bundled together and show clearly what we value.
Boyd K. PackerThose who speak of blind obedience may appear to know many things, but they do not understand the doctrines of the gospel. There is an obedience that comes from a knowledge of the truth that transcends any external form of control. We are not obedient because we are blind, we are obedient because we can see.
Boyd K. PackerSome worry endlessly over missions that were missed, or marriages that did not turn out, or babies that did not arrive, or children that seem lost, or dreams unfulfilled, or because age limits what they can do. I do not think it pleases the Lord when we worry because we think we never do enough or that what we do is never good enough....Some needlessly carry a heavy burden of guilt which could be removed through confession and repentance.
