Quote of the Day
You Are Responsible for Your Choices

"Strangely, doing the wrong thing often seems reasonable, possibly because it seems to be the easiest course. We often hear as a justification for wrong behavior, 'Well, everybody is doing it.'...Other people's actions do not dictate what is right or wrong....'You are responsible for the choices you make. You should not blame your circumstances, your family, or your friends if you choose to disobey God's commandments. You are a child of God with great strength. You have the ability to choose righteousness and happiness, no matter what your circumstances.'"

James E. Faust
