10 FREE Quotes on the Home that are great for printing!

I've been thinking a lot about 'home' lately. What makes a good home?  A happy home?  A peaceful home?  A loving home?  Does home size matter?  Does having the latest gadgets, toys, furniture etc. matter? What kind of home am I creating?? Do people feel happy when they visit my home?

Here are a few of my favorite quotes all about the home! Print one or all of them! Tag me @deseretdesigns on Instagram or FaceBook. I'd love to see how you use them. 

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

Joshua 24:15

Love grows best in little houses with fewer walls to separate. Where you eat and sleep so close together, you can't help but communicate. Oh, and if we had more room between us, think of all we'd miss. Love grows best in houses just like this.

Don't look around, look up!

Dear brothers and sisters, it is not easy for us to recognize the love of Heavenly Father when we look around with our temporal eyes, because we see inconvenience, loss, burdens, or loneliness first. On the other hand, we can see the blessings beyond when we look up. The Lord has revealed, “When we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated.” To all those who embark in any service of God, know that you are a solid connection for powerful blessings to those before you and to generations after you.

In our trials...

{4x6 Print}

In our trials, let us not become bitter or uncommitted, but let us follow the Savior’s example of becoming more earnest, more sincere, and more faithful. ... Let us not complain, … let us serve others, and let us forgive one another. As we do this, all things will work together for good to us that love God.

Never, never, never...

I'm alive!  Who knew moving could be so time consuming/exhausting?!  :)  I am slowly getting back into the swing of everything again now that we are somewhat settled in. I was watching a Mormon Message a few days ago and just haven't been able to get it out of my mind.

Enjoy!

Let them be little...

I know we as parents hear this a lot, but isn't it the truth: kids grow up so fast. They are only little once.  I don't know about any of you out there, but there sure is a lot of pressure to quickly raise your child infant into a pint size adult and stat!  Don't get me wrong- I look forward to seeing my children be self sufficient and be able to take care of themselves.  I especially appreciate their independence when I am in a rush to get out the door and need them to get dressed and ready so I can get the little other little one ready. But sometimes- like when I am looking back through scrapbooks at baby pictures- I realize just how quickly time has gone by and why oh why is there such a rush to make my children grow up  faster then they have to?  They only get to be little once so this is a reminder for me to be a bit more patient. To tie shoes when they ask me to. To let them play a little longer and be sillier a little more.  Maybe it's a reminder for you too!

You are a child of God

Several years ago I served in Activity Days (one of the best and funnest callings ever!) I found this quote and fell in love with it. I made one for each of my girls.  I came across the original a few weeks ago and knew I needed to update and share. Hope you like it :)

Download Here  (8x10)

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?  Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.  It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. 

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

-Marianne Williamson
