Personal Priesthood Responsibility
Elder Russell M. Nelson
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Priesthood authority is conferred, but priesthood power is developed personally through righteous living as we prepare to account to the Lord.
“My life is ready for inspection.”
“Now is the time to prepare for your own ultimate interview.”
“But power comes from exercising that authority in righteousness.”
“Only as an individual can you repent.”
“Heavenly Father, I am only a little orphan boy.”
