Movie to watch

On Monday night we watched the Emma Smith My Story DVD. It was a movie with lots of great quotes and a real story on having faith through all of the trials of life. What a strong woman Emma Smith was! I often wonder why we have the many trials in life that we do, or why Heavenly Father, who loves us, allows so much suffering in this world. But, I do know that through our trials and tests in life we learn and grow, and with faith we can overcome and be joyful.

Here are a few good quotes from the movie.


"Lilacs do not last very long, things in life rarely do, that makes them all the sweeter." Emma planted lilacs all over Joseph's grave.

"Strength is not something you have but something with God's help you find."

"No amount of sorrow can make things right. Only the Lord's love can make it right."

"Being strong can be a very lonely thing."

"Sometimes fear shouts so loud it drowns out our faith."
