Neal A. Maxwell Quotes About Children

Quotes about: Children

• You rock a sobbing child without wondering if today's world is passing you by, because you know you hold tomorrow tightly in your arms.

  Neal A. Maxwell

  Children, Rocks, World

• Some mothers in today's world feel "cumbered" by home duties and are thus attracted by other more "romantic" challenges. Such women could make the same error of perspective that Martha made.

• A father who finds it difficult to express his love vocally for his children may need, at first, to be humbly obedient in holding family home evenings in order to help him to discover, or to increase, his appreciation for his children. Next can come to him the courage to say I love you to each one.

  Neal A. Maxwell

  Love, Appreciation, Children

• Long ago when a child lay in a manger, a special star appeared. It didn't just show up that evening. It had to have been placed in its orbit centuries before in a trajectory that would make it appear at that special moment of time to announce the birth of a special child. Just as there is divine design in the universe, so each of us has been placed in our own orbits in this life to love, to serve, to help light the world.
