Today, I need to feel the love of the Lord for me and study more about showing love to my children. I selected Chapter 27 in the Joseph Smith manual, Charity, the Pure Love of Christ.
"Men or women [can] not be compelled into the kingdom of God, but must be dealt with in long-suffering, and at last we shall save them... Mercy should go hand in hand with reproof."
I must, must, must learn to deal with my children in long-suffering instead of demanding and compelling them to behave, act, etc. I need to always be merciful and not punitive with them, showing an increase of love after a reproof- which should always be done in private.
