There is so much to admire in Patricia T. Holland. I enjoy her talks, her openness, her grace. This books brings together many quotes from her talks and one of her books. I discovered that many of the quotes I had marked to remember, came from the one complete talk the book provides, A Future Filled With Hope, given at the World-wide devotional in January 2023. She passed away in July 2023.

Quotes:

"FAITH is the conviction that there is a God, HOPE is trusting He will help us, and CHARITY is His love and ability working through us to bless others.

I have learned regarding charity that none of us have energy, time, rsources, or strength to do all that our hearts would like us to do. We can't do it all; our hearts do exceed our capacity. How wonderful it is that God's power moving through us can enlarge our modest impact, can multiply our limited efforts, and do for others that which we could never do alone."

This is a beautiful book, put together by Patricia Holland's daughter. I highlighted so many things to look back on. It is a compilation of quotes from Sister Holland throughout many years of giving talks. Her husband, Jeffrey R. Holland, served as the President of BYU, and then was later called as an apostle. She had many opportunities to speak publicly because of this. Her last full address was included at the end of the book, given about six months before she passed away. The book covers many topics - women, temples, motherhood, priesthood, prayer, etc.

Love the way she put her thoughts together. Beautifully organized by her daughter. So glad she included all of her final address.
