real history

"When the real history of mankind is fully disclosed, will it feature the echoes of gunfire or the shaping sound of lullabies? The great armistices made by military men or the peacemaking of women in homes and in neighborhoods? Will what happened in cradles and kitchens prove to be more controlling than what happened in congresses? When the surf of the centuries has made the great pyramids so much sand, the everlasting family will still be standing, because it is a celestial institution, formed outside telestial time. The women of God know this.

No wonder the men of God support and sustain you sisters in your unique roles, for the act of deserting home in order to shape society is like thoughtlessly removing crucial fingers from an imperiled dike in order to teach people to swim." (The Women of God. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/1978/04/the-women-of-god?lang=eng)

In a world of unrest and chaos, it can be hard to know how to make a difference. Lift where you stand. Be a good person and raise better ones. Defend home and family. Work together as husband and wife. Teach and love your children. Family is the basic unit of society, when that breaks down eventually the nation will too. Create a good culture: love everyone, publish peace, be a good citizen, work hard, tell the truth, have fun, follow the prophet, and ultimately the Savior. A revival of good homes and families will bring a revival of goodness to our great land. God bless America. God bless our families. Let's do good and be good, starting in our homes.
