Let us be a temple-attending people. Attend the temple as frequently as personal circumstances allow. Keep a picture of a temple in your home that your children may see it. Teach them about the purposes of the House of the Lord. Have them plan from their earliest years to go there and to remain worthy of that blessing.

The atonement of Jesus Christ is the supreme act of love, the supreme example of selfless concern for others.

Tender expressions of love and affection toward children are as much the responsibility of the father as the mother. Tell your children you love them.

Why do we serve? When we understand why, we won't be concerned about where we serve.

In the service of the Lord, it is not where you serve but how. In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, one takes the place to which one is duly called, which place one neither seeks nor declines.

If you feel that . . . what you do this year or in the years to come does not make you very famous, take heart. Most of the best people who ever lived weren't very famous either.

The family is the most important unit in time and in eternity and, as such, transcends every other interest in life.
