“A KEY TO BEGIN FORGIVING: Become soft and tender with the person. The first step is to become soft in your mind and spirit. Lower your voice and relax your facial expressions.

“We need to approach the Bible each day with a spirit of deep humility, recognizing that our understanding of spiritual truth is at best incomplete and to some extent inaccurate ... we should approach the Scriptures in humility and expect the Spirit to humble us even further as we continue being taught by Him from His Word.” NeedsShouldSpiritualSpiritUnderstandingHumilityTaughtTruth IsApproachHumbleScriptureEach DayRecognizingIncompleteSpiritual Truth Author:Jerry Bridges
“It's strange how deserts turn us into believers. I believe in walking in a landscape of mirages, because you learn humility. I believe in living in a land of little water because life is drawn together. And I believe in the gathering of bones as a testament to spirits that have moved on. If the desert is holy, it is because it is a forgotten place that allows us to remember the sacred. Perhaps that is why every pilgrimage to the desert is a pilgrimage to the self.” IfsBelieveLittlesSelfTogetherRememberLife IsSpiritTurnsI BelieveWaterLandHumilityStrangeWalkingHolySacredMovedForgottenI Believe InBonesBelieverDesertLandscapeTestamentGatheringPilgrimageMoved OnMiragesDrawn Together Book:Red: passion and patience in the desert Source: Red: passion and patience in the desert
“Sister Eliza R. Snow was given a charge from the prophet Brigham Young to help lift and teach the sisters of the Church. She “taught that individual women could receive inspiration to guide them in their personal lives, their families, and their Church responsibilities. She said: ‘Tell the sisters to go forth and discharge their duties, in humility and faithfulness and the Spirit of God will rest upon them and they will be blest in their labors. Let them seek for wisdom instead of power and they will have all the power they have wisdom to exercise.’” SaidHelpingInspirationYoungSpiritIndividualGivenChurchResponsibilityTeachHumilityTaughtDutyExerciseLaborGuidesGods WillSnowLiftsProphetPersonal LifeFaithfulnessSpirit Of GodDischarge Author:Eliza R.

“Walking uplifts the spirit. Breathe out the poisons of tension, stress, and worry; breathe in the power of God. Send forth little silent prayers of goodwill toward those you meet. Walk with a sense of being a part of a vast universe. Consider the thousands of miles of earth beneath your feet; think of the limitless expanse of space above your head. Walk in awe, wonder, and humility. Walk at all times of day. In the early morning when the world is just waking up. Late at night under the stars. Along a busy city street at noontime.” ThinkingWorldLittlesEarthSpiritNightSpiritualityUniverseStarsPrayerSpaceWalksCitiesWonderMorningWorryFeetStreetsHumilityWalkingLateStressWake UpSilentBusyBreatheMilesAll TimeUpliftingTensionPoisonAweWakingLimitlessGoodwillPower Of GodEarly MorningExpanseTime Of DayCity StreetsSilent PrayerStress And Worry Author:Bill Vaughan
“The kind of gratitude that receives even tribulations with thanksgiving requires a broken heart and a contrite spirit, humility to accept that which we cannot change, willingness to turn everything over to the Lord -even when we do not understand, thankfulness for hidden opportunities yet to be revealed. Then comes a sense of peace. “When was the last time you thanked the Lord for a trial or tribulation? Adversity compels us to go to our knees; does gratitude for adversity do that as well?” WellsHeartKindDoeLastsSpiritTurnsOpportunityAcceptingLordHumilityBrokenGratitudeAdversityTrialsKneesWillingnessLast TimeThankfulnessTribulation Author:Bonnie D.

“True humility is a Christian grace and one of the fruits of the Spirit, originating in a deep consciousness of sin past and present, and leading us to discover our nothingness in the view of God, our insufficiency for any thing that is good, and prompting us, as we feel our infirmities, to strive after higher and yet higher attainments.” FeelsChristianPastSpiritSinViewsConsciousnessGraceHumilityHigherFruitStriveNothingnessAttainmentPast And PresentInfirmityTrue HumilityInsufficiencyFruits Of The SpiritGrace Christian Author:James McCosh

“Science remains the author of our major problem, in its gift of tremendous power that has been terribly abused; but for the wise use of this power we need more, not less, of the objective dispassionate scientific spirit.
