“God has given parents the sacred duty to rear their
children in love and righteousness, provide for their physical and spiritual
needs, and teach them to observe the commandments of God. My message to all
parents is this: The Lord loves you. He is with you. He stands beside you. He
is your strength in guiding your children to make righteous choices. Accept
this privilege and responsibility courageously and joyfully. Don’t delegate
this source of heavenly blessings to anyone else. You are the ones to guide
your child in the details of daily decisions. Help your children build faith in
Jesus Christ, love His gospel and prepare for a lifetime of righteous choices.
In fact, that is God’s plan for parents. Satan will oppose you, distract you,
try to discourage you. But every child has received the Light of Christ as a
direct line to heaven. And the Savior will help you, guide you, and encourage
you.” – Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf
