Jesus Christ Is the Strength of Parents
Excerpts
Look to God and Live, by Dan Wilson
Just as Jesus Christ is the strength of youth, Jesus Christ is also the strength of parents. …
A parent’s love for a child is one of the strongest forces in the universe. It’s one of the few things on this earth that can truly be eternal. …
Another strength you have, as a parent, is the opportunity for daily, ongoing influence. …
Another powerful way the Lord supports parents is through the incomparable gift of personal revelation. God is eager to pour out His Spirit to guide parents. …
Perhaps the most important help Jesus Christ offers to parents is the “mighty change” of heart. It’s a miracle every one of us needs. …
… Through the Savior’s grace, little by little, you’ll develop more of the attributes parents need: love for God and His children, patience, selflessness, faith in Christ, and courage to make righteous choices. …
Our effort to build faith in Jesus Christ is home centered, focused on the individual. And it is Church supported. Besides providing the sacred scriptures and the words of prophets, the Savior’s Church offers many resources to help parents and children make righteous choices. …
In Heavenly Father’s plan, families’ relationships are meant to be eternal. This is why, as a parent, you never give up, even if you are not proud of how things went in the past.
With Jesus Christ, the Master Healer and Savior, there can always be a new beginning; He always gives hope.
Jesus Christ is the strength of families[,] youth[, and] parents.
