Expressions of Love

Watch your step, Elder Holland

See what happens when you let something get between you and your family, weather you be a Father or Wife, a Son or Daughter.  This video is about thoughs fighting Pornagraphy, but you can apply it to just about anything.

What Matters Most Is What Lasts Longest, by M. Russell Ballard, Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

As your leaders, we call upon members of the Church everywhere to put family first and to identify specific ways to strengthen their individual families.

The family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of His children.

This is true, I testify that it is true.

The Importance of the Family

L. Tom Perry
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

May it be our resolve this year to build a gospel-centered home, a safe harbor from the storms of the adversary.

A stonger Family, the right way

     "Happiness within our family will most likely be achieved when it’s founded on the teachings of Jesus. That means being unselfish, honest, loyal, loving and a whole host of other virtues, not to mention a lot of effort. A loving and happy family doesn’t happen by accident.
Thinking back on our own family. There were times that were happy and times that weren’t. What were the happiest moments? Most likely they were when we felt loved. When our Dad cried because we were sick. When we saw our parents laugh and smile, and could see how much they loved each other. When my sister gave me a high five for scoring a goal, or vice versa. When I broke a window and my parents forgave me instead of yelling at me. When the car slid off the road during a blizzard and our family had to walk several miles for help. We held hands and sang to make the time go by faster. Our family pitched in to dig someone else out of the snow. My family suffered through my high school musical even though I was just a stagehand. Maybe our family prayed, sang songs, or attended church together. We can recreate those happy times today within our own family and marriage. If our family didn’t have many of those happy moments when we were young, then we want to make things different now." Mormon.org/family/

     How true this is, I myself can think back apon my life and see the best times of it all, and it was when i was Loved by my family. 
     How many of us want the best for our family?  All of us do, so then what are we willing to do to help them.  One thing I have experienced in my life is when i get into trouble.  I remember one time when i did something i shouldnt have when i was younger.  I remember feeling scared of not jutt getting into trouble but of what my parents would do to me for me punishment.  When my parents found out what I had done, i will never forget what they did to me, they forgave me.  My love for them increased a lot that day, they saw that I knew I did something wrong and insted of punishing me more, they showed their love they have for me.

     Suport is another thing the quote above talked about.  I loved having my Mom or Dad tell me i did somthing right.  My parents did this a lot while i was growing up.  And in doing so I looked for things i could do to help out my parents.  I wanted to help my parents out with anything i could.  Not only did they show their love for me but because they did that, they got my love back, and it helped everyone out.
