The Very Moment: Robert Fritz

"The very moment you realize
you are unhappy or frustrated with a situation,
is your 'point of power' for now you have
a clear picture of how you don't want things to be.

Imagine the exact opposite of the frustrating situation,
and there you have the makings of your vision."

~~ Robert Fritz

Greater Power: Benson

"The moment you begin a serious study of the [Book of Mormon], you will find greater power to resist temptation. You will find the power to avoid deception. You will find the power to stay on the straight and narrow path....When you begin to hunger and thirst after those words, you will find life in greater and greater abundance."
--President Ezra Taft Benson Ensign, November 1986, page 7.

Out of Small Things: Stephen A. West

"In the meridian of time, among other things, the Savior gave a touch here, a kind word there, food (both real and spiritual) to the hungry, advice and counsel to those in need. He gave prayers with the frightened, kindness to the passed-over, respect and affection for the children, loving care for those who are burdened. “And thus we see that by small means the Lord can bring about great things."
--Stephen A. West, "Out of Small Things", Ensign, May 1999, 28
