Russell M. Nelson
Each day is a day of decision, and our decisions determine our destiny.
Russell M. Nelson
While we are free to choose, once we have made those choices, we are tied to the consequences of those choices.
Russell M. Nelson
The decision to serve a mission will shape the spiritual destiny of the missionary, his or her spouse, and their posterity for generations to come. A desire to serve is a natural outcome of one's conversion, worthiness, and preparation.
Russell M. Nelson
There is mounting concern worldwide over the consumption of alcohol. The U.S. government estimates that 10.6 million adults are alcoholics and that one family in four is troubled by alcohol. It is a factor in half of all the nation's traffic deaths.

Some of the sweetest spirits are housed in frail frames. Great spiritual strength is often developed by those with physical challenges precisely because they are challenged. Such individuals are entitled to all the blessings that God has in store for His faithful and obedient children.
Russell M. Nelson
I urge you to choose companions well and cherish those friends who lift you and make you better in their presence. And be such friends to one another.
Russell M. Nelson
Be we reminded that the gathering of Israel is not the ultimate endpoint. It is but the beginning. The true endpoint is eternal life. It is that God’s children, in a covenant relationship with Him either by lineage or by adoption, will be able to dwell with Him and their families forever. That is God’s glory-eternal life for His children!
Russell M. Nelson
Through all of our various Christmas traditions, I hope that we are focused first upon the Lord Jesus Christ. Wise men still adore Him.
Russell M. Nelson
Remember: sin, even if legalized by man, is still sin in the eyes of God.
Russell M. Nelson
The full flower of divine love and our greatest blessings from that love are conditional-predicated upon our obedience to eternal law. I pray that we may qualify for those blessings and rejoice forever.
Russell M. Nelson
Each day is a day of decision.
Russell M. Nelson
Marriage is sanctified when it is cherished and honored in holiness. That union is not merely between husband and wife it embraces a partnership with God.
Russell M. Nelson
I doubt that the Lord cares much which honorable vocation you choose. But He does care if you love one another and serve one another.
Russell M. Nelson
Increase your faith. Proclaim your faith. Let your faith show.
Russell M. Nelson
The Savior's way of life is good.
Russell M. Nelson
You young men need to know that you can hardly achieve your highest potential without the influence of a good women, particularly you mother, and in a few years, a good wife.
Russell M. Nelson
God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, but we are not. Each day, ours is the challenge to access the power of the Atonement so that we can truly change, become more Christlike, and qualify for the gift of exaltation and live eternally with God, Jesus Christ, and our families. For these powers, privileges, and gospel gifts, thanks be to God!
Russell M. Nelson
