Youth of the Noblie Birthright: Elder Russell M. Nelson CES Devotional September 8th

Balance secular learning with spiritual learning.

What will you choose?

Will you choose to increase in learning?
Develop a deep desire to learn. Education is a religious responsibility. They glory of God is intelligence. Intelligence will rise with us in the resurrection. A long range perspective will help us make choices in our education. Education is the difference between wishing you could help others and being able to help others.

What manner of living will you choose?


Be thou an example of the believers. Choose to think and act different than those of the world and see how you can influence others. Unto whom much is given, much is required. Wickedness never was happiness.

Will you establish priorities to make choices in your life?
The most important truth you can learn is from the Lord. Seek to know God and Jesus Christ more than anything else. Study D&C 76 to understand blessing of eternal life. Choose eternal life as your first priority.


With whom will you associate?
Flee from non-believers that don't have your best interest at heart. Any pleasure in sin is only fleeting.

Will you choose freedom or bondage?
We are living in enemy-occupied territory.

Will you choose to follow the Lord of the philosophies of men?

Keep studying the scriptures and increasing your faith in Jesus Christ and see what good choices you make naturally.

How will you prepare for your personal interview with the Savior?
Each day on Earth gives you time to prepare for that interview. As you pour out your heart in daily pray, angels will be sent down to you.

In whom will you put your trust?


Put your trust in your Heavenly Father. Be worthy to go to the temple. Remember your goal of eternal life. Opportunities to go to the temple are essential to that goal.
