“The nearer man approaches perfection, the clearer are his views, and the greater his enjoyments, till he has overcome the evils of his life and lost every desire for sin; and like the ancients, arrives at that point of faith where he is wrapped in the power and glory of his Maker and is caught up to dwell with Him. But we consider that this is a station to which no man ever arrived in a moment” (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, 51).

Thank you for this reminder! I get so frustrated with myself when I resolve to do something, that when it doesn't happen "right now" I want to give up altogether! I needed this quote!
I know. I'm just beginning to learn that life's journey really is supposed to happen one step at a time. What a relief!
