More quotes by M. Russell Ballard
The joy of motherhood comes in moments. ... Families need unstructured time when relationships can deepen and real parenting can take place. Take time to listen, to laugh, and to play together.
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.

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

M. Russell Ballard
When the Spirit is present, people are not offended when you share your feelings about the gospel.
M. Russell Ballard
We cannot foresee what the Lord has in mind for us. Our only course of action is to be prepared and worthy for whatever he requires. We must govern our actions every day with our future in mind.
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
All the marvels of nature are glimpses of His divine power and expressions of His love.

M. Russell Ballard
A woman’s sphere of influence is a unique sphere, one that cannot be duplicated by men.
M. Russell Ballard
There is no one perfect way to be a good mother... Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children... What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else.
