Our joy now and forever is inextricably tied to our capacity to love.

Our joy now and forever is inextricably tied to our capacity to love.

We can leave a place behind, or we can stay in that place and leave our selfishness behind.

Keep your eye on eternal goals

Only that which lasts forever is real. That which is done in the temple lasts forever; therefore, the temple is the real world. Most of what we experience "out there," such as sickness, wealth, poverty, fame, etc., lasts for only a short period of time, so it is not the real world.

More than anything else we should be concerned about meekness, or our standing in God's sight. If that standing is as it should be, nothing else matters. If it is not, nothing else counts.

Sometimes God calms the storm and sometimes He calms his child.
