2 An Iron Rod Today Preparing Early Will Bring Peace to Our lives
3
4 1 Nephi 8:10-12 And it came to pass that I beheld a tree, whose fruit was desirable to make one happy. And it came to pass that I did go forth and partake of the fruit thereof; and I beheld that it was most sweet, above all that I ever before tasted. Yea, and I beheld that the fruit thereof was white, to exceed all the whiteness that I had ever seen. And as I partook of the fruit thereof it filled my soul with exceedingly great joy; wherefore, I began to be desirous that my family should partake of it also; for I knew that it was desirable above all other fruit.
5
6 1 Nephi 8:15-16 And it came to pass that I beckoned unto them; and I also did say unto them with a loud voice that they should come unto me, and partake of the fruit, which was desirable above all other fruit. And it came to pass that they did come unto me and partake of the fruit also.
7 PREPARE EARLY President Henry B. Eyring emphasized the need for all of us to prepare early.
8 Best At Home However worthy and appropriate other demands or activities may be, they must not be permitted to Coleen Menlove, General Primary President, October 2002 General Conference displace the divinelyappointed duties that only parents and families can adequately perform.
9 First Things First Some parents become so expert at filling every physical desire for their children that they begin to suppose that all is well in this life and that their eternal stewardship is progressing right on schedule. I have noticed that some children living in too much luxury can lose their sense of spiritual values and misplace their eternal priorities. I believe that we must pause and
10 First Things First take a careful inventory to determine how well our families are doing spiritually. We could ask how well are we feeding, nurturing, training, and exercising the spirits of our children; or how well have we taught, trained, loved, and inspired our children to build their spiritual muscles and strength? We are given many teaching moments, and the Church
11 First Things First has given us the special family home evening to help us accomplish this purpose. Remember, eternity is now, not a vague, distant future. We prepare each day, right now, for eternal life. If we are not preparing for eternal life, we are preparing for something else, perhaps something far less. (M. Russell Ballard, Ensign, Nov. 1978, 66)
12 Truth: D&C 93:24-25 True (+/- Truth) Babies: Cute, expensive, messy, become teenagers, control and sometimes disruptive to life, figure, career, and sleep patterns Bodies: Age over time, certain types dramatically more attractive than others, expensive to maintain and retain, mine needs help! Truth (Eternal/Saving) Babies: Heavenly Father s children with the potential to become like him; need physical bodies only we can provide. Bodies: Satan and the 1/3 that followed him denied one as their punishment; necessary to become like God and experience fulness of Joy.
13 Best To Start Early I know that if ye are brought up in the way ye should go ye will not depart from it. (2 Nephi 4:5) And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. (2 Timothy 3:15)
14 How Early is Too Early? Elder David A. Bednar explains that even infants are not too young to feel and comprehend the familiar spirit of the scriptures.
15 A Promise from a Prophet President Marion G. Romney "I feel certain that if, in our homes, parents will read from the Book of Mormon prayerfully and regularly, both by themselves and with their children, the spirit of that great book will come to permeate our homes and all who dwell therein. The spirit of reverence will increase; mutual respect and consideration for each other will grow. The spirit of contention will depart. Parents
16 A Promise from a Prophet President Marion G. Romney will counsel their children in greater love and wisdom. Children will be more responsive and submissive to the counsel of their parents. Righteousness will increase. Faith, hope, and charity-- the pure love of Christ--will abound in our homes and lives, bringing in their wake peace, joy, and happiness" (Ensign, May 1980, 67).
17 Family Home Evening Elder L. Tom Perry of the Quorum of the 12 Family Home Evening isn t the parent s responsibility only it is something that the Youth of the Noble Birthright should not only engage in but participate in and even shoulder the responsibility for.
18 Elder Bednar on consistency Elder David A. Bednar explains that the key to family scripture study, prayer, and family home evening is CONSISTENCY.
19
20 Elder Packer on Fathers President Boyd K. Packer explains that the power in the priesthood comes through Fathers, or those authorized in the absence of a father.
