More quotes by Richard G. Scott
The Lord sees weaknesses differently than He does rebellion.
Richard G. Scott
Don't yield to Satan's lie that you don't have time to study the scriptures. Choose to take time to study them. Feasting on the word of God each day is more important than sleep, school, work, television shows, video games, or social media. You may need to reorganize your priorities to provide time for the study of the word of God. If so, do it!
Richard G. Scott
Create an atmosphere for the Spirit. The Spirit must be present.
Richard G. Scott
A true principle makes decisions clear even under the most confusing and challenging circumstances.
Richard G. Scott
No enduring improvement can occur without righteous exercise of agency. Do not attempt to override agency. The Lord himself would not do that. Forced obedience yields no blessings.
Richard G. Scott
If one of you has seriously sinned, repent-now. It is not good to violate the commandments of the Lord. It is worse to do nothing about it. Sin is like cancer in the body. It will never heal itself. It will become progressively worse unless cured through the medicine of repentance.
Richard G. Scott
Chose to converse with your Father in Heaven often. Make time every day to share your thoughts and feelings with Him.
Richard G. Scott
You are one of the noblest of God's creations. His intent is that your life be gloriously beautiful regardless of your circumstances. As you are grateful and obedient, you can become all that God intends you to be.
Richard G. Scott
We become what we want to be by consistently being what we want to become each day.
Richard G. Scott
Our Heavenly Father did not put us on earth to fail but to succeed gloriously.
Richard G. Scott
It really does no good to ask questions that reflect opposition to the will of God. Rather ask, What am I to do?
Richard G. Scott
Recognize the good in others, not their stains.
Richard G. Scott
Your agency, the right to make choices, is not given so that you can get what you want. This divine gift is provided so that you will choose what your Father in Heaven wants for you. That way He can lead you to become all that He intends you to be.
Richard G. Scott
No one had to worry about Peter after his conversion. Your investigators can be that converted.
Richard G. Scott
Try reading the Book of Mormon because you want to, not because you have to. Discover for yourself that it is true.
Richard G. Scott
One of the greatest blessings we can offer to the world is the power of a Christ-centered home where the gospel is taught, covenants are kept, and love abounds.
Richard G. Scott
Worthy character is best forged from a life of consistent, correct choices centered in the teachings of the Master.
Richard G. Scott
Marriage provides an ideal setting for overcoming any tendency to be selfish or self-centered. I think one of the reasons that we are counseled to get married early in life is to avoid developing inappropriate character traits that are hard to change.
Richard G. Scott
To reach a goal you have never before attained, you must do things you have never before done.
Richard G. Scott
Make covenants and receive ordinances for yourself. Then steadily and consistently work to provide ordinances in the temple for your own ancestors.
Richard G. Scott
