Russell M. Nelson (Russell Marion Nelson Sr.) Quotes
Have faith to keep all the commandments of God, knowing that they are given to bless His children and bring them joy. You will encounter people who pick which commandments they will keep and ignore others that they choose to break. I call this the cafeteria approach to obedience. This practice of picking and choosing will not work. It will lead to misery. To prepare to meet God, one keeps all of His commandments. It takes faith to obey them, and keeping His commandments will strengthen that faith.
