"It matters not where we live or what our individual circumstances may
be. Each day our righteous living can demonstrate a faith in Jesus
Christ that sees beyond mortal heartaches, disappointments, and
unfulfilled promises. It is a glorious thing to possess a faith that
enables us to look forward to that day 'when all that was promised the
Saints will be given.' (Now Let Us Rejoice, "Hymns," no. 3)"
- Anne C. Pingree, "Seeing
the
Promises Afar Off," General Conference, 4 October 2003

"As we try to deal patiently and lovingly every day with fussy
babies, challenging teenagers, difficult roommates, less-active
spouses, or elderly, disabled parents, we may ask ourselves: 'Is
what I am doing really important? Does it matter or make a
difference?' Dear sisters, what you are doing with your families
matters! It matters so very, very much. Daily, each of us learns and
relearns at home that charity, the Savior's pure love, never
faileth. So many Relief Society sisters do great good serving in
their families. These faithful women do not receive the praise of
the world—nor do they seek it—but 'of some have compassion, making a
difference.' (Jude
1:22.)" - Anne C. Pingree, "Charity:
One Family, One Home at a Time," Ensign (CR), November 2002,

Daily prayer and
scripture study, adherence to commandments and to covenants made at
baptism and in the temple are at the core of growing up unto the Lord.
We learn to walk in His ways as we do what draws us closer to Heavenly
Father and as we teach our children and others to do the same. We "put
away childish things" as we choose to become Christlike and serve
others as He would have us do. - Anne C. Pingree, "To
Grow Up unto the Lord," Ensign (CR) May 2006

This idea of growing up unto the Lord is a compelling one. Unlike
the process of growing up physically, we will not mature spiritually
until we choose, as the Apostle Paul phrased it, to "put away
childish things.” - Anne C.
Pingree, "To
Grow Up unto the Lord,” Ensign (CR) April 2006
