Love at Home

In an age when the world would see the family and all that it stands for destroyed it is important that we stand strong as one. Family is the greatest blessing we can have. Home is a  harbour from the storms of life and place where we should be able to come to find rest not only for our bodies but also for our souls.

It is important that we show appreciation for that which others do for us. We should give honest compliments, and there is nothing like a hug to show someone else that you are there for them and that you love them.

It is also important that we tell those we care about that we love them. To actually hear the words 'I love you' is heart warming and uplifting. We all have bad days when we feel the world is against us and it's not as if we would like someone else to solve our problems for us, that would be nice, sometimes we just need to know that someone else is listening to us. Someone else cares.

President Monson  'let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey and share our love with friends and family. One day, each of us will run out of tomorrows. Let us not put off what is most important.'

What is most imprtant almost always involves the people around us. Often we assume that others know that we love them and therefore forget to say the words. By showing love one to another we will bring heaven closer to our homes and all who dwell there will find peace.

President Monson - 'May we make of our homes sanctuaries to which our family members will ever want to return.'
