We build deep and loving family relationships by doing simple things together, like family dinner and family home evening and by just having fun together. In family relationships love is really spelled t-i-m-e, time. Taking time for each other is the key for harmony at home. We talk with, rather than about, each other. We learn from each other, and we appreciate our differences as well as our commonalities. We establish a divine bond with each other as we approach God together through family prayer, gospel study, and Sunday worship.
Dieter F. UchtdorfWould do well to slow down a little... focus on the significant... and truly see the things that matter most.
Dieter F. UchtdorfThe responsibility of building leadership in the Church belongs to the father and the mother. . . . As youth grow and mature through their teenage years and move toward adulthood, the Church picks up an important role in this process of giving youth an opportunity to lead, but it begins in the home.
Dieter F. UchtdorfLet us be mindful of the foundational precepts our Heavenly Father has given to His children that will establish the basis of a rich and fruitful mortal life with promises of eternal happinessโฆ. Brothers and sisters, diligently doing the things that matter most will lead us to the Savior of the worldโฆ. Let us make the changes necessary to refocus our lives on the sublime beauty of the simple, humble path of Christian discipleshipโthe path that leads always toward a life of meaning, gladness, and peace.
