On the Right Track

This is short, but somewhat of a birthday present to me. I honestly don't seem to have 2 minutes to process where I am at in my daily life. But in those few seconds that come to me from time to time, I tend to not feel very satisfied with where I am spiritually myself and as a spiritual guide for my family. Today someone posted a quote I have heard before, but never really internalized ... the quote is from Elder David Bednar and states, "If today you are a little bit better than you were yesterday, then that's enough." Thank you and happy birthday to me!

Parenting Quote from Pres. Gordon B. Hinckley

“Never forget that these little ones are the sons and daughters of God and that yours is a custodial relationship to them, that He was a parent before you were parents and that He has not relinquished His parental rights or interest in these His little ones. Now, love them, take care of them. Fathers, control your tempers, now and in all the years to come. Mothers, control your voices; keep them down. Rear your children in love, in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Take care of your little ones. Welcome them into your homes, and nurture and love them with all of your hearts. They may do, in the years that come, some things you would not want them to do, but be patient, be patient. You have not failed as long as you have tried. Never forget that.”
