"Faith is a Real Power"

I have decided to take more time to improve myself after listening to conference this past weekend.  As mothers I think we often times are so self-less we forget that to be better mothers and wives, we do need to focus on ourselves for some time each day! 

The first talk of all of conference sunk deep in my thoughts and heart.  President Boyd K. Packer spoke.  He said "Faith is a real power". 

He taught, "There are few things more powerful than the faithful prayers of a righteous mother.  Teach yourself and teach your families about the gift of the Holy Ghost and the Atonement of Christ.  You will do no greater eternal work than within the walls of your own home."

As mothers, we must take the time to first learn!  As we do this, we can do and teach.  Our children will learn not only from what we are actively trying to teach them, but they will learn from our example as well.  Then, not only will they come to know, but we will too!  Faith is a power that we can rely on when trials and tribulations come our way.  It is something to be strengthened.  It is something that is to be trusted when we do experience moments or days or even years of heartaches and struggles. 

I know that as we take the time to strengthen our faith as women, it will have a significant impact on those around us, specifically those within the walls of our homes.
