"By small and simple things, great {marriages} are brought to pass!
If an apple a day can keep the doctor away, then a kind deed a day will give you a healthier and happier marriage. Now, that IS a great thing!

a fight worth fighting

Vince Lombardi had a saying, "the harder we fight for something, the harder it is to surrender"

I read this the other day and instantly thought of marriage.

One of my friends put a quote/statement on her Facebook the other day that went like this: "If you put something on the back burner it will grow cold".

I read this and instantly thought of marriage as well.

Isn't it the truth! We live in a time when, depending on where you live and who you know, you are ridiculed, belittled or sometimes people will even try and talk you out of getting married, starting a family, staying at home with your kids or providing for a family!

We MUST fight for what we want! If we want an eternal family, then we have to do what it takes to have one! This is not meant to be a passive thing! Faith is a principle of action. If we have faith in the promise that families can be together forever, then we must act like it!

If you'd like to read up on what we (as a church) believe; what we are counseled to do and the blessings that will come if we follow the counsel of Prophets, go HERE.
