Elder Nelson quote

Prayer begins with individual initiative. 

“Behold,” saith the Lord, “I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”  

  That door is opened when we pray to our Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ.
