I Always Felt Big And Unattractive.

In The Things That Really Matter--our Covenants, The Commandments, And Following The Prophet--we Need To Be Completely United. In The Non-essentials, We Have Our Agency To Handle Things As We See Fit. But, In All Things, Regardless Of Whether We Make The Same Choices Or Not, We Are To Treat Each Other With Dignity And Respect, Both Of Which Are Evidences Of Charity In Our Hearts And Lives.

The Healing Power Of Charity, Bestowed By Our Father And Made Possible By The Atonement Of Jesus Christ, Can Make It Virtually Impossible For Us Even To Feel Emotions Common To The Natural Man.

Thus, When We Plead For The Gift Of Charity, We Aren't Asking For Lovely Feelings Toward Someone Who Bugs Us Or Someone Who Has Injured Or Wounded Us. We Are Actually Pleading For Our Very Natures To Be Changed, For Our Character And Disposition To Become More And More Like The Savior's, So That We Literally Feel As He Would Feel And Thus Do What He Would Do.

Motherhood Is More Than Bearing Children...it Is The Essence Of Who We Are As Women.

No Woman Who Understands The Gospel Would Ever Think That Any Other Work Is More Important Or Would Ever Say, "i Am Just A Mother," For Mothers Heal The Souls Of Men.
