I haven't posted in a long while but totally feel that there are important things that need to have our (my) attention more often. This is our family! I have been thinking about this and have found that as we give our families more attention and less time to our to do lists or our technology we can build our families up in a way that is pleasing to our Heavenly Father. Here is a quote that touched me today... Marriage Is Essential To His Eternal Plan Elder David A. Bednar Ensign, Jun 2006, 82-87 "In “The Family: A Proclamation to the World,” the First Presidency and Council of the Twelve Apostles proclaim “that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.” 2 This keynote sentence of the proclamation teaches us much about the doctrinal significance of marriage and emphasizes the primacy of marriage and family in the Father’s plan. Righteous marriage is a commandment and an essential step in the process of creating a loving family relationship that can be perpetuated beyond the grave." What stood out to me is "the family is central" seriously, the family is huge and we need to remember to treat as such. I truly love my family and hope we can all pay a little extra attention to our families in the days that follow.
