I marvel that all women, young women, and even little girls seem to have an innate interest and ability to nurture.
[Nurtuting] is not only a mother’s primary responsibility but also part of our “individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose.”
President Hinckley said, “How much more beautiful would be the . . . society in which we live if every father . . . and . . . mother regarded [their] children . . . as gifts from the God of heaven . . . and brought them up with true affection in the wisdom and admonition of the Lord” (“These, Our Little Ones,” Ensign, Dec. 2007, 9).
How it must grieve the Lord to see virtue violated and modesty mocked on every side in this wicked world.
Jesus’s disciples on the Sea of Galilee had to toil in rowing against a contrary wind all through the night before Jesus finally came to their aid. He did not come until the “fourth watch,” meaning near dawn. Yet He did come. My testimony is that miracles do come, though sometimes not until the fourth watch.
