More quotes by M. Russell Ballard
The key [to sharing the gospel] is that you be inspired of God, that you ask Him for direction and then go and do as the Spirit prompts you.
M. Russell Ballard
Of this you may be certain: The Lord especially loves righteous women-women who are not only faithful but filled with faith, women who are optimistic and cheerful because they know who they are and where they are going, women who are striving to live and serve as women of God.
M. Russell Ballard
Do not think that you are too busy to study the gospel.
M. Russell Ballard
Free and open expression coupled with visionary leadership generally encourages good decision-making.
M. Russell Ballard
Of all the opportunities my priesthood authority affords, there is none grander than the privilege of being in one of our temples and representing the Master in officiating in the marriage of two of His worthy, righteous children.
M. Russell Ballard
Those of you who have fallen prey to any kind of addiction, there is hope because God loves all of His children
M. Russell Ballard
Quite simply, our one hope for spiritual safety during these turbulent times is to turn our minds and our hearts to Jesus Christ.
M. Russell Ballard
Our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the source of spiritual power that will give you and me the assurance that we have nothing to fear.
M. Russell Ballard
We each shape our own life, and the shape of it is determined largely by our attitude.
M. Russell Ballard
We must be prepared to keep pace with our leaders, stride for their every lengthened stride.
M. Russell Ballard
All of us must come to an honest, open self-examination, an awareness within as to who and what we want to be.
M. Russell Ballard
...We need to strive to keep things in proper balance. Good balance comes in doing things in a timely way and in not procrastinating our preparation or waiting to fulfill our responsibilities until the last minute.
M. Russell Ballard
Sacrifice is a demonstration of pure love.
M. Russell Ballard
Remember, young men, that purity precedes power. The Lord said, 'But purify your hearts before me and then go ye into all the world, and preach my gospel unto every creature who has not received it' (D&C 112:28). Missionaries discover this very early in their missions and make every effort to be worthy so they can serve with power.
M. Russell Ballard
The words of the Lord are found in the scriptures and the teachings of the apostles and prophets. They provide us counsel and direction that, when followed, will act like a spiritual life jacket and will help us know how to hold on with both hands.
M. Russell Ballard
Just as He had done with David, Samuel, and Joseph of the Old Testament, God took an innocent, unlearned boy, one still unsullied by the world and pliable to His divine will, and molded and shaped him into His chosen prophet.
M. Russell Ballard
The answer is, of course, to simplify, to prioritize, and in some cases, to use a well-known phrase, Just say no! But actually doing it may prove to be one of the real challenges in our complicated, overheated lives.
M. Russell Ballard
Set goals that are well balanced-not too many nor too few, and not too high nor too low. Write down your attainable goals and work on them according to their importance. Pray for divine guidance in your goal setting.
M. Russell Ballard
We must never ignore or pass by the prompting of the Spirit to render service to one another.
M. Russell Ballard
Jesus Christ can help us fix anything that needs fixing in our lives.
M. Russell Ballard
