I found two wonderful quotes today as we were doing our scripture study. They are both from Latter Day Prophets:
"The nearer man approaches perfection, the clearer are his views, and the greater his enjoyments, till he has overcome the evils of his life and lost every desire for sin."
Joseph Smith
and...
“Learn to like your work. Learn to say, ‘This is my work, my glory, not my doom.’ God has blessed us with the privilege of working. When he said, ‘Earn thy bread by the sweat of thy brow,’ he gave us a blessing. Men and women have accepted it. Too much leisure is dangerous. Work is a divine gift” David O’ McKay
About Me
- viennabaxters
- Holly was a stay at home, home-schooling mom of three boys. Alexander is a biological son born in 1994, and Max and Daniel were adopted from Russia in 2004, born in 1995 and 1996. Max has a sister born in 1994 who is still in an orphanage in Russia. We tried desperately to adopt her since 2002, but that is no longer possible. In 2007, we adopted 2 year old Rosie from China. Our blogs are meant to share our hopes, dreams, our family, our love and to record our journey toward perfecting our family. We hope the Lord will bless you as he has us.
