Quotes from General Authorities

    A man filled with the love of God is not content with blessing his family alone,
    but ranges through the whole world, anxious to bless the whole human race.
    Joseph Smith

    There is an interdependence between those who have and those who have not,
    giving exalts the poor and humbles the rich;
    in the process, both are sanctified.
    Marion G. Romney

    In serving others, we “find” ourselves in terms of acknowledging divine guidance in our lives. Furthermore, the more we serve our fellowmen in appropriate ways, the more substance there is to our souls. We become more significant individuals as we serve others. We become more substantive as we serve others—indeed, it is easier to “find” ourselves because there is so much more of us to find!
    President Spencer W. Kimball

    The Lord does notice us, and he watches over us. But it is usually through another person that he meets our needs. Therefore, it is vital that we serve each other.
    Spencer W. Kimball

    “Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.” In other words, he who lives only unto himself withers and dies, while he who forgets himself in the service of others grows and blossoms in this life and in eternity.
    President Gordon B. Hinckley

    A member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to provide for the widow, to dry up the tear of the orphan, to comfort the afflicted, whether in this church or in any other, or in no church at all wherever he finds them.
    Joseph Smith
