Marriage - Family – Love – Work – Eternal Blessings
Keeping a marriage and family strong and increasing and deepening the love over the years takes consistent and conscientious effort. We are blessed for our efforts.
These quotes come from an article about marriage and family relationships.
“Generate a spirit of selflessness and generosity. Celebrate and commemorate each day together as a treasured gift from heaven.” Russell M.Nelson
“One of the great purposes of true love is to help each other. … We can endure almost anything if we have someone at our side who truly loves us, who is easing the burden and lightening the load.” Jeffrey R.Holland
“… love is a fragile thing, and some elements in life can try to break it. Much damage can be done if we are not in tender hands, caring hands. To give ourselves totally to another person, as we do in marriage, is the most trusting step we take in any human relationship. It is a real act of faith—faith all of us must be willing to exercise. If we do it right, we end up sharing everything—all our hopes, all our fears, all our dreams, all our weaknesses, and all our joys—with another person.” Jeffrey R. Holland
“True love blooms when we care more about another person than we care about ourselves. That is Christ’s great atoning example for us, and it ought to be more evident in the kindness we show, the respect we give, and the selflessness and courtesy we employ in our personal relationships.” Jeffrey R. Holland
“We need to both express and demonstrate love. Feeling the security and constancy of love from a spouse, a parent, or a child is a rich blessing. Such love nurtures and sustains faith in God. Such love is a source of strength and casts out fear (see 1 John4:18). Such love is the desire of every human soul.”
