A couple weeks ago I attended our stake relief society conference. Our speaker was wonderful. Her faith was amazing and her base of christian faith was amazing. She was a convert but had grown up with a strong christian mother who lived what she believed. I realized while listening to this woman that I am not teaching my children to live what they believe. I think partly because I am too worried about not doing something right. I am coming to realize that the Lord blesses us for our efforts. If I give all I can give then the Lord will bless me with the rest and my children will be blessed for my efforts. Hopefully I can always remember this lesson and continue to give my children the base they need to stay strong. I am grateful for this woman's testimony and her willingness to share it. I am grateful for a Heavenly Father who truly knows me and is patient with me because I can be pretty stubborn and it takes a few times to sink in...
