I am really grateful for my Heavenly Father's love towards me and all of my other brothers and sisters on this earth. He want to give us many blessings and promises to do so as we follow His commandments and do what He would have us do.
I have been thinking a lot about the gospel and how it affects families and relationships. When we put God first we will undoubtedly be happy no matter what trial or tribulation comes our way. I have this image in my head of how I want my marriage to be. I picture us praying together, reading the scriptures together, having family home evening, going to church, etc. I even picture myself peeking through a door only to see my husband kneeling down in prayer by Himself. That to me is the most attractive thing you could find in any relationship. Once you find someone that is willing to put God above all else- keep him.
Marriage requires a lot of communication and planning. We should sit down together with our spouses and discuss those things that would be considered most important and the focus of our marriage and family. When we make plans, we have a goal, when we have a goal, we have work to do, when we have work to do, there is something to be accomplished. The Lord will help us accomplish our righteous desires. He loves us and wants nothing more than to have our marriage last for eternity.
The books that we have been reading in our class about marriage have had a huge impact in my life. It has helped me realize what kind of marriage I want to have and what I have to do to achieve that goal.
I know Heavenly Father loves us and knows each of us perfectly.
