“I feel certain that if, in our homes, parents will read from the Book of Mormon prayerfully and regularly, both by themselves and with their children, the spirit of that great book will come to permeate our homes and all who dwell therein. The spirit of reverence will increase; mutual respect and consideration for each other will grow. The spirit of contention will depart. Parents will counsel their children in greater love and wisdom. Children will be more responsive and submissive to the counsel of their parents. Righteousness will increase. Faith, hope, and charity—the pure love of Christ—will abound in our homes and lives, bringing in their wake peace, joy, and happiness” -Marion G. Romney (Ensign, May 1980, p. 67).
We have this quote on the fridge. I have always counted on this promise, to bring peace into our home, it has. I have been told by many guests to our home of the spirit they feel in our home. It’s not always perfectly clean and spotless, but we have a love for each other. We have a love for the Book of Mormon, it is true. We have a love of God. If you have never read this book, read it. You will not regret it.
Hope your Sunday was the Best! Love, Joy
