“The happiest sweetest tenderest homes are not those where there has been no sorrow but those which have been overshadowed with grief and where Christs comfort was accepted. The very memory of the sorrow is a gentle benediction that broods ever over the household like the silence that comes after prayer. There is a blessing sent from God in every burden of sorrow.” -James Russell Miller

Jesus did not say, “Tolerate your neighbor,” but instead He said, “Love your neighbors.” Each person wants to be loved and appreciated and enjoyed for what he is and for what he can do for his friends and his neighbors.” -Caroline Eyring Miner
