Spiritual Thought - Feb 29

“I have discovered that life is not a series of great heroic acts.  Life at its best is a matter of consistent goodness and decency, doing without fanfare that which needed to be done when it needed to be done.  I have observed that it is not the geniuses that make the difference in this world.  I have observed that the work of the world is done largely by men and women of ordinary talent who have worked in an extraordinary manner.”  President Gordon B. Hinckley

“We should honor the Savior’s declaration to “be of good cheer.” (Matthew 14:27) Indeed, it seems to me we may be more guilty of breaking that commandment than almost any other!  Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

Spiritual Thought - Feb 8

“Rise to the great potential within you.  I do not ask that you reach beyond your capacity.  I hope you will not nag yourselves with thoughts of failure.  I hope you will not try to set goals far beyond your capacity to achieve.  I hope you will simply do what you can do in the best way you know how.  If you do so, you will witness miracles come to pass.”  President Gordon B. Hinckley
