More quotes by 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
We must never ignore or pass by the prompting of the Spirit to render service to one another.
M. Russell Ballard
All the marvels of nature are glimpses of His divine power and expressions of His love.
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
Members are more likely to seek counsel from leaders from whom they feel sincere love emanating.
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
Friends and family are vitally important for an individual who is struggling to return to the gospel path. Those around such a person must refrain from judging. They must do all they can to show 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
We must be prepared to keep pace with our leaders, stride for their every lengthened stride.
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
It is the parents duty to intervene when they see wrong choices being made.
M. Russell Ballard
Do not shift your focus from serving others to focusing exclusively on school, work, or social activities.
M. Russell Ballard
What matters most is what lasts the longest and families are forever.
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
There is no such thing as unlawful censorship in the home. Movies, magazines, television, videos, the Internet, and other media are there as guests and should only be welcomed when they are appropriate for family enjoyment.
M. Russell Ballard
Sacrifice is a demonstration of pure love.
M. Russell Ballard
A mother's nurturing love arouses in children, from their earliest days on earth, an awakening of the memories of love and goodness they experience in their premortal existence, Because our mothers love us, we learn, or more accurately remember, that God also loves us
M. Russell Ballard
If your dream requires patience, give it.
M. Russell Ballard
I surely know that there is no role in life more essential and more eternal than that of motherhood.
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
