Fridge Quotes

  1. “We cannot be careless in our reach. Lives of others depend on us. The power to lead is indeed the power to mislead; and the power to mislead is the power to destroy.”
    Thomas S. Monson
    (Teachings of Thomas S. Monson)

  2. “High-powered sales techniques are not the answer in priesthood leadership; rather, devotion to duty, continuous effort, abundant love, and personal spirituality combine to touch the heart, prompt the change, and bring to the table of the Lord His hungry children who have wandered in the wilderness of the world but who now have returned "home."”

  3. “Most service given . . . is accomplished quietly, without fanfare. A friendly smile, a warm handclasp, a sincere testimony of truth can literally lift lives, change human nature, and save precious souls.”

  4. “The Savior taught His disciples, "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it." I believe the Savior is telling us that unless we lose ourselves in service to others, there is little purpose to our own lives. Those who live only for themselves eventually shrivel up and figuratively lose their lives, while those who lose themselves in service to others grow and flourish—and in effect save their lives.”

  5. “It is an immutable law that the more you give away, the more you receive. You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give.”

  7. “In the divine plan of salvation, women and men are equally yoked, making it difficult to speak of the contributions of one without reference to the other. As the apostle Paul taught, "Neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord." We therefore find that women have an essential, leading role in creation, in the patriarchal order as equal partners with their husband, as prophetesses, as types of Christ, and as mothers.”

  9. “The groundwork of faith, obedience, and testimony makes it possible to later create missions, temple marriage, and family in our life. As we lay the foundation of attending class, studying, and getting good grades, we will be able to create our dreams of going to college or getting into our chosen career. What we do today creates what we can make tomorrow.”

  10. “Some people who don’t know the gospel plan think that the purpose of life is to be rich, or to be famous, or to be as buff or beautiful as possible. Other people might think the purpose of life is to just have fun. Luckily for us, the Lord restored through Joseph Smith the knowledge of the great plan of salvation, and with that knowledge God restored the answer to the question: What is the purpose of life?”

  11. “The scriptures teach us that Jesus Christ’s Atonement is “an infinite atonement.” In other words, Christ’s power to help you in your life has no end. It goes on forever. Whatever sins you have committed, whatever trials you have had, whatever strength you need, Christ has the power to heal, lift, cleanse, and empower you. He will not run out of strength. His power is truly infinite; you can always count on Him.”

  12. “The great test of life isn’t to be perfect, or not to make any mistakes. The only mistake we can really make in this life is to not make and keep covenants.”
    Anthony Sweat, John Hilton III

  13. “The truth that we were reserved to be born in the last days should also help us avoid the mentality of “it’s so much harder to be righteous today than ever before” that can sometimes creep in and weaken us. God knew we could handle our day, with its various trials and temptations, just like He knew the faithful Israelites could inherit the promised land and just like He knew Joseph Smith and the early Church leaders could establish the restored Church.”

  14. “We are trying to do something more than just live with God, we are trying to become like Him. As a matter of fact, the entire purpose of life can be summarized in these five simple words: to become more like God.”

  15. “The Liberty Jail—an ironic name—became the location of some of Joseph’s most poignant thoughts and feelings as he and his companions endured months of captivity in the dark, filthy, unwholesome prison. The spiritual promptings he received during these difficult days led assistant Church historian B. H. Roberts to call the jail “a prison-temple.” ”

  16. “There are three classes of mankind in Christendom; one acknowledges a God of revelation, with power to speak to the people; another, that God can not speak, and must not speak; and the third class are infidels, and believe there is no God.

  18. “To some it is given to be the movers of humanity, to exhibit greatness few mortals are allowed. The world is never the same after they have passed through it. But there is another form of greatness. To some it is given to believe in those movers, to be the supports and comforters without whom they could not accomplish their great commissions.”

  19. “We must see the value in others. We can disagree with their ideas, conclusions, or beliefs and still love and admire each individual soul for the unique qualities of their mind and personality.”

  20. “Joy, happiness, laughter, and optimism are not always inherent in our personalities or the circumstances of mortality. We are born to these things as part of our inheritance from God, but they also need to be educated into us.”
