LDS (Latterday Saint) Women are Incredible!

Yes, That is what Quentin L. Cook said in his address. Let me share.




Sisters have key roles in the Church, in family life, and as individuals that are essential in Heavenly Father’s plan. Many of these responsibilities do not provide economic compensation but do provide satisfaction and are eternally significant.   I can tell you for a fact it does in fact bring satisfaction. At least on most days.


LOVE this lady- Another woman, however, felt “the biggest enemy of a happy family life was not paid work—it was television.” She said that families are TV rich and family-time poor.



I appreciate the perspective this paragraph gives me.
No woman should ever feel the need to apologize or feel that her contribution is less significant because she is devoting her primary efforts to raising and nurturing children. Nothing could be more significant in our Father in Heaven’s plan. Second, we should all be careful not to be judgmental or assume that sisters are less valiant if the decision is made to work outside the home. We rarely understand or fully appreciate people’s circumstances. Husbands and wives should prayerfully counsel together, understanding they are accountable to God for their decisions.




The “errand of angels is given to women.” 22 This has been described as “nothing less than to do the direct and immediate bidding of our Father in Heaven, and ‘this is a gift that … sisters … claim.Kinda makes you feel like your efforts a bit more worthwhile, huh?

    Good idea posting your thoughts here. I know when I write things down it helps me remember them better.
