Patiently enduring some things is part of our mortal education.

No eternal learning can take place without that quickening of the Spirit from heaven.

Coveting, pouting, or tearing others down does not elevate your standing, nor does demeaning someone else improve your self-image.

I testify that bad days come to an end, that faith always triumphs, and that heavenly promises are always kept.

The ability of the gospel to unite us on common strengths and common truths is one of the great miracles . . . of the gospel.

Think the best of each other, especially of those you say you love. Assume the good and doubt the bad.

Another study estimated that 75 percent of all divorces result from clashes over finances. Some professional counselors indicated that four out of every five families wrestle with serious money problems.
