What lies within us: Walt Emerson

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Walt Emerson

Gratitude: Hinkley

"Gratitude is of the very essence of worship. … When you walk with gratitude, you do not walk with arrogance and conceit and egotism, you walk with a spirit of thanksgiving that is becoming to you and will bless your lives”. Sincerely giving thanks not only helps us recognize our blessings, it also unlocks the doors of heaven and helps us feel God’s love."

--Gordon B Hinckley, "With a Grateful Heart", Liahona, Aug 1999, 25
