Quotes

View selected quotes from this page in Wilford Woodruff's journal.

I then stood up & taught them Jesus Christ & the first principles of the gospel & testified of the Book of Mormon & the great work which God had set his hand to accomplish & while I was yet speaking the spirit of God rested upon us & bore testimony unto them of the truth of my words & they bowed down & prayed & gave glory to God for his marvelous work
~ Wilford Woodruff
in all our sacraifices, afflictions sickness, sorrow, & persecutions let us strive to be patient & resigned to the will of God in all these things I am well aware that these things are not joyous but grievous for a moment but afterwards it will yield the peaceable fruits of righteousness unto those that are exercised thereby. Let us not think strange that our afflictions are multiplyd upon us for it is through tribulations that we inherit the Kingdom & we have but little time to pass through these trials & tribulations before the scene will be closed & joy will come & we shall enter that rest that remains for the Saints
~ Wilford Woodruff
