When mothers know who they are and who God is and have made covenants with Him, they will have great power and influence for good on their children.

The ability to qualify for, receive, and act on personal revelation is the single most important skill that can be acquired in this life.

When we know who we are and what we are supposed to do, it is easier to make important decisions about education, careers, and marriage. It is easier to shine our light in our families, with our friends, and in all other places.

I hope our granddaughters and grandsons grow up knowing that they are not and have never been third-party observers of the priesthood. The blessings of the priesthood, which 'are available to men and women alike', are woven in and through and around their lives. Each of them is blessed by sacred ordinances, and each of them can enjoy the blessings of spiritual gifts by virtue of the priesthood.

We are also told that this Spirit will enlighten our minds, fill our souls with joy, and help us know all things we should do.Promised personal revelation comes when we ask for it, prepare for it, and go forward in faith, trusting that it will be poured out upon us.

All faithful members of the Lord's Church are equally blessed by priesthood ordinances.

You are doing better than you think you are. But we can be better.
