We Are Of Worth

I want to share some news I received.

As have shared before that there was an ordeal I went thru in St George, I would like you to know that Crime Victims of Utah has decided to cover some important costs related to the ordeal to help me succeed.

I cannot express in words how thankful I am for this blessing.

The reason I am sharing this news is because I know I am not the only victim of crime...there are many who go thru things that they cannot control. I know how hard it is to get yourself out of a tough situation do to fear... I in no way will ever judge a person who stays in an awful situation as I have experienced the fear of leaving.

But, I feel that its important that I share that we are so worth being treated better, that we are children of God and have a royal inheritance. God will provide if we use His strength to better our lives. No matter how much we feel that things may be our own fault, or that we are unlovable... if we just exercise a little bit of faith.... God will guide us in the right direction and send us the tools to succeed whether it be by a helping friend here on earth or by assistance from the State of Utah and Crime Victim centers.

Blessed


Can I just say that I feel so blessed in this moment. I know God is looking out for me, that He loves me and will provide when I am in need.

The Family Proclamtion to the World

Can I just say that I love my family, I am so blessed to have such great people in my life.


"I have a family here on earth,
They are so good to me.
I want to spend my life with them
Thru all eternity.
Families can be together forver
Thru Heavenly Fathers plan.
I always want to be with my family
And the Lord has shown me how I can,
The Lord has shown me how I can."

I so love my neices and nephews...arent they the cutest? I hope they know how much I love them, and that I will always be there for them.

Below you will find the Family Proclamation To The World by the First Presidency and 12 Apostles, I encourage you to read it.






W

E, THE FIRST PRESIDENCY and the Council of the Twelve


Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,

solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a

woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to

the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.


A

LL HUMAN BEINGS—male and female—are created in the


image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of

heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and

destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual

premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose.


I

N THE PREMORTAL REALM, spirit sons and daughters knew


and worshipped God as their Eternal Father and accepted

His plan by which His children could obtain a physical

body and gain earthly experience to progress toward perfection

and ultimately realize their divine destiny as heirs of

eternal life. The divine plan of happiness enables family

relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred

ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it

possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and

for families to be united eternally.


T

HE FIRST COMMANDMENT that God gave to Adam and Eve


pertained to their potential for parenthood as husband and

wife. We declare that God’s commandment for His children

to multiply and replenish the earth remains in force. We

further declare that God has commanded that the sacred

powers of procreation are to be employed only between

man and woman, lawfully wedded as husband and wife.


W

E DECLARE the means by which mortal life is created to be


divinely appointed. We affirm the sanctity of life and of its

importance in God’s eternal plan.


H

USBAND AND WIFE have a solemn responsibility to love


and care for each other and for their children. “Children

are an heritage of the Lord” (Psalm 127:3). Parents have a

sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness,

to provide for their physical and spiritual needs, and to

teach them to love and serve one another, observe the commandments

of God, and be law-abiding citizens wherever

they live. Husbands and wives—mothers and fathers—

will be held accountable before God for the discharge of

these obligations.


T

HE FAMILY is ordained of God. Marriage between man and


woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled

to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by

a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete

fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be

achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord

Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established

and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance,

forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and

wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers

are to preside over their families in love and righteousness

and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and

protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible

for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities,

fathers and mothers are obligated to help one

another as equal partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances

may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended

families should lend support when needed.


W


E WARN that individuals who violate covenants of


chastity, who abuse spouse or offspring, or who fail to fulfill

family responsibilities will one day stand accountable

before God. Further, we warn that the disintegration of

the family will bring upon individuals, communities, and

nations the calamities foretold by ancient and modern

prophets.


W


E CALL UPON responsible citizens and officers of government


everywhere to promote those measures designed

to maintain and strengthen the family as the fundamental

unit of society.
