A Quiet Heart

The Quiet Heart

By: Patricia T. Holland

The title and author of this book caught my interest while at the book store a while back.  I've really enjoyed reading it and found strength from it.  Here are a few quotes that I love:

"I am blessing him.  Be patient with my plan" (pg. 5)

"The kind of contemplation, reflection, and yearning for I am speaking of can't be accomplished very handily in competition with cellular phones, computers, or a blaring TV.  God can enter our realm only at our invitation. He stands at the door and knocks always, but someone has to hear that knock and let him enter." (pg 9)

"Please trust lovingly in the goodness of God.  He will honor the covenants you have made with him!  Glorious and glimmering promises await you if you will but trust in him.  You are God's child!  He loves you - and he will never stop loving you." (pg. 118)

Day Six

I am thankful for nature!  Today some of my family and I went hiking at South Mountain.  I love hiking and being outdoors.  

   

But Alma said unto him: Thou hast had signs enough; will ye tempt your God? Will ye say, Show unto me a sign, when ye have the testimony of ^aall these thy brethren, and also all the holy prophets? The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the ^bearth, and ^call things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its ^dmotion, yea, and also all the ^eplanets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.

Alma 30:44
