NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 121


·        "Jesus ... did exhort his believers to employ prayer as a means of leading up through thanksgiving to true worship. He quoted from the Scriptures on this occasion, saying: 'It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to the name of the Most High, to acknowledge his loving-kindness every morning and his faithfulness every night, for God has made me glad through his work. In everything I will give thanks according to the will of God.' "
  • ·        “The struggle ends when gratitude begins.”—Neale Donald Walsch
    ·        "The ministering work of angels becomes of increasing interest as it nears the inhabited worlds, as it nears the actual problems faced by the men and women of time who are preparing themselves for the attempt to attain the goal of eternity."
    ·        "Of his divine free-willness, the Universal Father has given you your creature personalities. You have been endowed with a measure of that divine spontaneity of freewill action which God shares with all who may become his sons."
    ·        “Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.” William Arthur Ward
    ·        "Miracles are teaching devices for demonstrating it is blessed to give as to receive. They simultaneously increase the strength of the giver and supply strength to the receiver.
    ·        "The faith acceptance of the truth of God enables man to escape from the circumscribed confines of material limitations and affords him a rational hope of achieving safe conduct from the material realm, whereon is death, to the spiritual realm, wherein is life eternal."
    ·        “The joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives.”—Russell M. Nelson
    ·        "While 'it does not yet appear what you shall be,' even now 'you are the faith sons of God'; 'for you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received the spirit of sonship, whereby you cry, "our Father." ' "
