Are We Like Naaman?

2 Kings 5 : 20-27


Are we ever like Naaman, the leper, expecting some great thing before we will pay attention to prophets?

-Elder M. Russell Ballard, April 1990 General Conference


Are we not sometimes like Naaman, looking for big or important things to do and bypassing simple things which could change our lives and heal us of our afflictions? At a Brigham Young University fireside, President Hunter said...

...“the achievement of true greatness is a long-term process. … It seems that it always requires regular, consistent, small, and sometimes ordinary and mundane steps over a long period of time”

(“What Is True Greatness?” Brigham Young University 1986–87 Devotional and Fireside Speeches, Provo: BYU, 1987, p. 115).

-Elder Rex D. Pinegar, October 1994 General Conference
