Women, never underestimate the power of your influence for good, especially over the children and youth. We are raising the next generation! What a HUGE responsibility. The future is dependent on the lessons and examples we give them.
“There is a saying that big gates move on small hinges. Sisters, your example in seemingly small things will make a big difference in the lives of our young people. The way you dress and groom yourselves, the way you talk, the way you pray, the way you testify, the way you live every day will make the difference. This includes which TV shows you watch, which music you prefer, and how you use the Internet. If you love to go to the temple, the young people who value your example will also love to go. If you adapt your wardrobe to the temple garment and not the other way around, they will know what you consider important, and they will learn from you”. (The Influence of Righteous Women by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf Second Counselor in the First Presidency)
We not only have a powerful influence on the future generations. We influence for good today, to make life sweet today, to give contentment to the heart today, to bring salvation today”.
