Gratitude is a sign of maturity...Where there is appreciation: there is also courtesy and concern for the rights and property of others.

The Church expects that each of us carry a share of the burden of leadership. There is no paid clergy. The work is done because of a love of the cause. And as people serve, they grow in capacity. The time and effort is not a sacrifice because there is returned more than is given.

Simple honesty is so remarkable a quality. It is of the very essence of Integrity.

While there may be thorns and disappointments, while there may be heartache, even heartbreak, there can be peace and comfort and strength from the Lord for those who follow Him.

Please don't nag yourself with thoughts of failure. Do not set goals far beyond your capacity to achieve. Simply do what you can do, in the best way you know, and the Lord will accept of your effort.

Get on your knees and pray, then get on your feet and work.

There must be labor, incessant and constant, if there is to be a harvest.
