"The place to cure most of the ills of society is in the homes of the people. Building our homes as fortresses of righteousness for protection from the world takes constant labor and diligence. Membership in the Church is no guarantee of a strong, happy family. Often parents feel overwhelmed. The Lord has provided a plan that will help us to be successful in meeting every challenge that may confront us. In the plan of salvation, all families are precious instruments in the Lord’s hands to help direct His children toward a celestial destination. The righteous molding of an immortal soul is the highest work we can do, and the home is the place to do it. To accomplish this eternal work, we should make our homes gospel centered. When peace and harmony abound, the Holy Spirit will ever be present. The storms of the evil one can be stopped at the very entrance of our homes. " Elder Wirthlin

Great quote--love the illustration! Especially Amy's modest dress and nice hair-do. Miller's clothing options, however, leave me blushing
:)
We all need to be on the offensive against the opposition, who is truly offensive. The world around us is rapidly losing sight of what is important in favor of what is expedient. The financial markets are destroyed as are the retail markets and it can all be connected to the greed of a few causing un-imaginable harm to the many.
FANTASTIC! Love the quote, Love the illustration! Love that Jarrod posted. :)
One of Elder Wirthlin's grandsons was my Home Teacher in Logan - sad that he's gone, but love the "words/lessons" he left behind! Go Jarrod - I don't even think Jamie reads my blog. O-well.
