"We should remember that saying 'I love you' is only the beginning. We need to say it, we need to mean it, and most importantly, we need consistently to show it." - Elder David A Bednar
First Speaker
Why Latter-day Saints Build Temples - article on the church’s website.
“The temples, with ‘Holiness to the Lord’ inscribed on them, are among the most sacred of all places on the earth. They stand as evidence of God’s love to all His children, past and present.”
“When Jacob traveled from Beersheba toward Haran, he had a dream in which he saw himself on the earth at the foot of a ladder that reached to heaven where the Lord stood above it. He beheld angels ascending and descending thereon, and Jacob realized that the covenants he made with the Lord there were the rungs on the ladder that he himself would have to climb in order to obtain the promised blessing— blessings that would entitle him to enter heaven and associate with the Lord” (Marion G. Romney, “Temples—The Gates to Heaven,” Ensign, Mar. 1971, p. 16).
DnC 14
7 And, if you keep my commandments and endure to the end you shall have eternal life, which gift is the greatest of all the gifts of God.
Jacob’s ladder is about covenants and about enduring to the end.
Next Speaker
“Most of all, I think eternal marriage cannot be achieved without a commitment to make it work. Most of what I know about this I have learned from my companion. We have been married for almost 47 years now. From the beginning she knew what kind of marriage she wanted.” (Elder F. Burton Howard, “Eternal Marriage”, April 2005 General Conference)

Remembrance
As we deal with our children we should remember how we felt when they were born.
As we deal with our questions about the gospel, we need to constantly remember what God has already shown us and how we felt.
The scattering and gathering of Israel are much like death and resurrection. The body is scattered and then gathered back together.
