That is such a great idea! Think of how cool that will be in 1 year, in 5 years, in 10, 20, 50 ... SOOOO amazing!
Here are some of my favorites:
"Give me this mountain!" -President Kimball (Liza Dailey wrote that quote in a little letter she wrote me when I was a missionary in her ward. I keep the letter in my scriptures.
"...as I was with Moses, so I will be thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee . ... Only be thou strong and very courageous that mayest observe to do according to all the law ... turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest... Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed; for the LORD thy God is with thee withersoever thou goest." -Joshua 1:5-9
"I, the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say; but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise." - D&C 82:10
"There is a law, irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world, upon which all blessings are predicated - And when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated." - D&C 130:20-21
"God's in his heaven, All's right with the world!" Robert Browning
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
"These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." - John 16:33
"Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed. - D&C 123:17
"Come what may, and love it!" - Joseph B. Worthlin. (JUST KIDDING! I HATE that quote! I love what Joseph B. Wirthlin had to say and I believe he was called of God, and all that but I seriously HATE that quote and all the vinyl lettering that followed.
I love you and Jake and I have every confidence that everything is going to be not just fine but great! Mwah mwah mwah!
Love, Momsy
You have some great quotes in there...I remember sending Adam quotes every letter while he was on his mission and he told me later how much he appreciated them! You two will succeed and be happy as long as you work together as a "we" couple instead of a "me" couple...looks like you are off to a good start!
Great idea! All those quotes are awesome! I love hearing and getting new quotes. Wish I would have thought of that at the beginning of my marriage :) I should just keep some papers that size in my scripture and can write quotes whenever I hear them :)
