What would disappear if every person on earth knew that they had a Heavenly Father and a Heavenly Mother who loved them?⁣

What would be gone if every child was raised with this knowledge? ⁣

Maybe hatred would disappear. ⁣

Maybe competition and jealousy. ⁣

Maybe self-loathing and criticism. ⁣

I know this won’t happen right now. ⁣

But I can control what my children learn. ⁣

How might they behave differently with this knowledge in their life?⁣

Now who knows the paths their lives will take, but I want to do my absolute best to ground my children in this beautiful knowledge that I think can transform the world. ⁣

“Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny.” -The Family: A Proclamation to the World⁣

Do we teach this clearly enough to every young person we come in contact with?⁣

Do WE believe it?⁣

When we know that we have Heavenly Parents who love us, when we REALLY know this, I think we can change the world one person at a time. ⁣

Feeling loved and feeling important can change anyone.

“Our Heavenly Father wants us to love ourselves—not to become prideful or self-centered, but to see ourselves as He sees us: we are His cherished children.” – F. Gifford Nielsen

Happy Studying!
