“Let us pray for ourselves, that we may not lose the word “concern” out of our Christian vocabulary. Let us pray for our nation. Let us pray for those who have never known Jesus Christ and redeeming love, for moral forces everywhere, for our national leaders. Let prayer be our passion. Let prayer be our practice.” MayChristianPassionJesusForceNationsChristLosesPrayerKnownLeaderMoralPracticePrayingJesus ChristConcernVocabularyRedeemingRedeeming Love Author:Robert E. Lee
“We are redeemed one man at a time. There is no family pass ticket or park hopping pass to life. One ticket - one at a time. Man doesn't vanquish hatred or bigotry. The target keeps moving. From the blacks to the Irish; atheists to Christians. But as always there are a few leaders: Ben Franklin, John Quincy Adams, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Abraham Lincoln, Fredrick Douglas, Booker T Washington, Ghandi and Martin Luther King. They know that the march toward freedom never ends, man must be ever vigilant and pray less with his lips and more with his legs.” KnowsMenEndsChristianMovingLeaderPrayingKingsHatredLipsAtheistLegsParksTargetMarchBigotryOne ManTicketsLutherKeep MovingAbrahamFranklinRedeemedVigilantVanquishHoppingBen Franklin Author:Glenn Beck
“I think of Pope Gregory the Great. He wanted the cloister. He wanted to pray and study, and yet he was thrust into this administrative job, and he submitted to that. And in that submission, he became a great leader. You could say that the only person who is safe to lead is the person who is free to submit.” ThinkingPersonsWantedJobsLeaderStudyPrayingSafeSubmitPopeSubmissionGreat LeaderThrustAdministrative Author:Richard J.

“I am Catholic but I want to say something to the Catholics. Thank you for some of the bishops who live in rural areas, and are still Catholic.

“Some citizens are so good that nothing a leader can do will make them better. Others are so incorrigible that nothing can be done to improve them. But the great bulk of the people go with the moral tide of the moment. The leader must help create that tide. Some coaches pray for wisdom. I pray for 260-pound tackles. They'll give me plenty of wisdom.” PeopleGivingDoneMomentsHelpingCan DoLeaderMoralPrayingCitizensGive MeCoachesPlentyPoundsTidesI PrayIncorrigible Author:Chuck Noll
“We should be patient in developing and strengthening our testimonies. Rather than expecting immediate or spectacular manifestations, though they will come when needed, we should pray for a testimony, study the scriptures, follow the counsel of our prophet and other Church leaders, and live the principles of the gospel. Our testimonies then will grow and mature naturally, perhaps imperceptibly at times, until they become driving forces in our lives.” ShouldForceGrowsChurchLeaderPrinciplesStudyOur LivesPrayingNeededPatientDrivingScriptureDevelopingManifestationProphetMatureExpectingTestimonyBe PatientSpectacularStrengtheningDriving ForceChurch Leaders Author:Joseph B.
