M. Russell Ballard

M. Russell Ballard
The Lord does not want us to miss supper. In fact, He has a great feast prepared for those who return clean and pure through the door.
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
Focus on fruitful relationships that bring you closer to Jesus Christ.
M. Russell Ballard
If we are one in purpose, spirit, principle and faith, then it doesn't really matter if we are always of the same opinion. Opinions change and can be easily altered by time, experience, and circumstance. But principles, purposes, spirituality, and faith are enduring values that can bind us as one despite disagreement or dispute.
M. Russell Ballard
When we learn to expect more success than failure in life, we soon will develop an attitude of success.
M. Russell Ballard
We each shape our own life, and the shape of it is determined largely by our attitude.
M. Russell Ballard
We should seek at all times to purify ourselves and to lead such worthy lives that the Light of Christ emanates from us in all that we say and do.
M. Russell Ballard
There is no problem in the family, ward, or stake that cannot be solved if we look for solutions in the Lord's way by counseling - really counseling - with one another.
M. Russell Ballard
No matter how difficult the trial... we can take comfort in knowing that others before us have borne life's most grievous trials and tragedies by looking to heaven.
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
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
Sacrifice is a demonstration of pure love.
M. Russell Ballard
When a leader in the Church inspires council members with vision, he helps them focus on their real mission so that they are ministering to people rather than merely administering programs.
M. Russell Ballard
