Words to Live By

Stake Conference-what an amazing weekend!   I just wanted to share a few thoughts that really impressed me and certainly I will carry with me for, well I hope, forever! 
"Those who approach God receive His personal attention." -President Wilson
"The cause of mankind's unhappiness comes from him giving up most for what he wants now!" paraphrasing Sister Choo
What is it that matters most to your family? 
*Teaching our children to follow Christ through His example.
*Relationships with our spouse, children, fellowmen and ourself.
*Building relationships of pure love.
*Keeping family together and active in the gospel as they get older.
*Being consistent in following the principles of the gospel, even in times of uncertainty.
Gosh, there were so many things that were said that were sooo good and just for me.  I was grateful that I went and that I was ready to receive such knowledge and inspiritation.
What is it thar matters most to your family?  Happy pondering!!!!
