SO, my house has been in turmoil lately. end of summer activities, anxious children over school, fits about chores and obeying the rules. groundings, lots of yelling, anger and hatred."this has got to stop. this needs to change!" was my concern to the mister on the phone the other night. then a thought entered my mind. read your scriptures. it has been over 2 months since we've read our scriptures as a family. we had become far to lax over the summer and it has paid the price.
"we need to read our scriptures in the morning." was my conclusion to fixing this problem. and we did. and we have since then. it's only been three days, but in the three days my house has been calm, no major meltdowns, no fits, no yelling, anger or hatred. we've been kinder, gentler, and more loving. it was like magic. only it's not magic but the spirit quietly reminding us to be obedient. with that, we will be happy. such a silly girl i am to let such a thing slide. we are always learning in this life. that is what makes life so incredible. line upon line....
