"Jude’s words capture the inevitable emptiness of life that eventually envelops those who choose anyone or anything other than the Savior: “Clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots” (Jude 1:12)."
"Our souls should be so deeply rooted in Christ that we will be able to endure any challenge, triumph over any affliction, withstand any attack on our faith, and become like oak trees—firm, immovable, and steadfast. That kind of rootedness transcends time and outlasts every enemy, even the most subtle, invisible, and insidious ones."-- Elder L. Whitney Clayton, "Rooted in Christ", Ensign, August 2016
Good quotes Tam.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I hear anything about oak trees, I think of the ranch in High Valley.
