Satan delights to have us put ourselves down. Self-contempt is of Satan. There is no such thing in heaven.
Neal A. MaxwellWe can hold to the iron rod even if others slip away and a few end up mocking us from "the great and spacious building."
Neal A. MaxwellThe Lord doesn't ask about your ability, only your availability; and, if you prove your dependability, the Lord will increase your capability.
Neal A. MaxwellStubborn selfishness leads otherwise good people to fight over herds, patches of sand, and strippings of milk. All this results from what the Lord calls coveting "the drop," while neglecting the "more weighty matters." (D&C 117:8) Myopic selfishness magnifies a mess of pottage and makes thirty pieces of silver look like a treasure trove. In our intense acquisitiveness, we forget Him who once said, "What is property unto me?"
