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

Jesus was Picky too

He is the one person who loved everyone no matter what they were. But even HE was picky about those he associated with.

If you wanted to be with Him, you were welcomed with open arms. But if you didn't appreciate what He could offer you, He let you alone. Not in an unkind way, but He of all people wasn't one to force his presence.

This has been eye opening to me.

Being Christlike doesn't mean you can't be selective.

And that is something I'm going to be. If YOU want to be around me. If you value me, I welcome you into my life with open arms. If not, we may both live and exist peacefully separately.
