Today's Quote

“As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’? Unlike the book on the library shelf, the covers of which shield its contents, our lives cannot be closed. Parents, we truly are an open book in the library of learning of our homes.” Thomas S Monson

Unwilling

I truly believe that Heavenly Father views not being grateful and being unwilling to be kind/help others as the WORST things you can be next to murder and adultery. Boy, being a Parent has taught me a TON about Him. I view a lack of gratitude and kindness, and abuse of any kind between my children as ABHORANT. So His view on those things is easy to understand. I have encountered several cases of these first 2 mentioned "crimes" lately, and it really gets under my skin. Remember the scripture "Blessed are the Merciful, for they shall obtain Mercy."? Yup! Pretty much. What you refuse to others, be it Mercy, Forgiveness, etc. Will be likely refused to you when the time of reckoning comes.
