“Let there be No Strife”“A meek man is like water, which when it meets an obstacle, rises slowly and patiently and ultimately runs over the obstruction and wears it away.
“The meek man is submissive only in the sense that he accepts the inevitable. Because he submits to the will of God, he gains new strength, a new power." Leland S. Monson, Look to the
Mount.

1 Nephi 19:9 And the world, because of their iniquity, shall judge him to be a thing of naught; wherefore they scourge him, and he suffereth it; and they smite him, and he suffereth it. Yea, they spit upon him, and he suffereth it--- because of his loving kindness and his long-suffering towards the children of men.

• When people hurt you over and over, think of them like sand paper. They may scratch and hurt you a bit, but in the end, you end up polished and they end up useless
• Be who God wants you to BE, not what others want to SEE.
• It’s better to have God’s approval than the World’s applause
• Trials are like fertilizer: stinky, dirty, and dark. But they help us grow strong and produce a great harvest.
• New Beginnings are often Disguised as Painful Endings

Abraham
Why would Abraham not accept even a “thread” from the king of Sodom?
President Thomas S. Monson: “It has been said by one, years ago, that history turns on small hinges, and so do people’s lives. Our lives will depend upon the decisions which we make—for decisions determine destiny” (“Decisions Determine Destiny,” New Era, Nov. 1979, 4).
