G.C. Droplets April 2023 -After the Fourth Day

 Faith [in the Lord Jesus Christ] is a principle of action and miracles do not produce faith, but strong faith is developed by obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ. In other words, faith comes by righteousness. -W. Mark Bassett

G.C. Droplets April 2023 -After the Fourth Day

 Our Heavenly Father, who gives us so much to delight in, also knows that we learn and grow and become stronger as we face and survive the trials through which we must pass. -W. Mark Bassett (quoting Thomas S. Monson)

G.C. Droplets April 2023 -After the Fourth Day

 Sometimes during our own challenges, we might feel like Christ is too late, and our hope and faith might even feel challenged. My witness and testimony are that as we move forward with faith in Jesus Christ, the fourth day will always come. He will always come to our aid or to raise our hopes back to life. -W. Mark Bassett

 We must remember that whatever our best-but-imperfect offering is, the Savior can make it perfect. -Vern P. Stanfill

 I believe the Savior Jesus Christ would want you to see, feel, and know that He is your strength. That with His help, there are no limits to what you can accomplish. That your potential is limitless. He would want you to see yourself the way He sees you. And that is very different from the way the world sees you. -Vern P. Stanfill (quoting Dieter F. Uchtdorf)
