“One of Heavenly Father’s most beloved tools in guiding His children is righteous grandparents. My father’s mother was such a woman. On an occasion that took place when I was too young to remember, my father was disciplining me. Observing this correction, my grandmother said, ‘Monte, I believe you are correcting him too harshly.’ My father replied, ‘Mother, I will correct my children as I want.’ And my wise grandmother softly stated, ‘And so will I.’ I’m pretty sure my father heard the wise guidance of his mother that day. Heavenly Father has many resources, but often He uses another person to assist Him. Daily He gives us opportunities to lead, guide, and walk beside one in need. We must follow the example of the Savior. We too must be about Heavenly Father’s work.” - M. Joseph Brough
