“Many [hooligans] discover to their shame that they have scruples; they have roots and, greatest disadvantage of all, they have hope. The fathers superior of the order do not try to influence their children in Satan; they merely shake their heads in sorrow. They know that the apostate must work out his own damnation.” KnowsTryingChildrenOrderFatherInfluenceSorrowRootsShameWork OutSuperiorsSatanShakesDisadvantagesHaving HopeDamnationScruples Author:Quentin Crisp
“Satan is ever seeking to inject that poison into our hearts to distrust God's goodness - especially in connection with his commandments. That is what really lies behind all evil, lusting and disobedience. A discontent with our position and portion, a craving from something which God has wisely held from us. Reject any suggestion that God is unduly severe with you. Resist with the utmost abhorrence anything that causes you to doubt God's love and his loving-kindness toward you. Allow nothing to make you question the Father's love for his child.” HeartChildrenLyingFaithEvilFatherCausesBehindsKindnessDoubtPositionGoodnessConnectionsSeekingLustSatanPoisonRejectsTrust In GodPortionsCommandmentsSevereSuggestionsDistrustCravingDisobedienceDiscontentGod's LoveLoving KindnessAbhorrence Author:Arthur W.

“Fill your life with service to others. As you lose your life in the service of Father in Heaven’s children, Satan’s temptations lose power in your life. Because your Father in Heaven loves you profoundly, the Atonement of Jesus Christ makes that strength possible. Isn’t it wonderful? Many of you have felt the burden of poor choices, and each of you can feel the elevating power of the Lord’s forgiveness, mercy, and strength.” FeelsChildrenChoicesFatherJesusHeavenFeltChristLosesPoorLordWonderfulLove YouJesus ChristMercyBurdenTemptationSatanAtonementService To OthersFather In HeavenElevatingPoor Choices Author:Richard G.

“We don't always know the details of our future. We do not know what lies ahead. We live in a time of uncertainty. We are surrounded by challenges on all sides. Occasionally discouragement may sneak in to our day; frustration may invite itself into our thinking; doubt might enter about the value of our work. In these dark moments Satan whispers in our ears that we will never be able to succeed, that the price isn't work the effort, and that our small part will never make a difference. He, the father of all lies, will try to prevent us from seeing the end from the beginning.” ThinkingKnowsTryingMayEndsMomentsMightAbleLyingValuesFatherSidesChallengesDifferencesDarkEffortDoubtSeeingSucceedEarsDetailsUncertaintySatanMaking A DifferenceFrustrationOur FutureInvitesDiscouragementSneakSmall PartsSneak InDark Moments Author:Dieter F.
