“Missionarying was a better thing in those days than it is in ours. All you had to do was to cure the head savage´s sick daughter by a miracle- a miracle like the miracle of Lourdes in our day, for instance- and immediately that head savage was your convert, and filled to the eyes with a new convert´s enthusiasm. You could sit down and make yourself easy now. He would take the ax and convert the rest of the nation himself.” EyeNationsEasyDaughterSickMiracleDown AndFilledCuresInstanceEnthusiasmSavagesLourdes Book:Mark Twain at Your Fingertips: A Book of Quotations Source: Mark Twain at Your Fingertips: A Book of Quotations

“Developing Christlike attributes in our lives is not an easy task, especially when we move away from generalities and abstractions and begin to deal with real life. The test comes in practicing what we proclaim. The reality check comes when Christlike attributes need to become visible in our lives—as husband or wife, as father or mother, as son or daughter, in our friendships, in our employment, in our business, and in our recreation. We can recognize our growth, as can those around us, as we gradually increase our capacity to 'act in all holiness before [Him]' (D&C 43:9).” NeedsRealRealityMovingLife IsMotherFatherEasyGrowthDealsOur LivesWifeSonHusbandDaughterCapacityTasksTestsIncreaseReal LifeChecksEmploymentDevelopingVisibleHolinessAttributesAbstractionRecreationGeneralitiesEasy Tasks Author:Dieter F.

Do we actually stand for anything, if what we do stand for is under attack and we say nothing?
