Transoculofaithrecon (... through the eyes of faith ...)

In the March Ensign the First Presidency Message is by President Eyring. As I was reading through it again in preparation for home teaching I was caught by a phrase that is a little off topic, but a good spiritual line of thought for me.

"... we must see the reality of who we are through the eyes of faith."

The thing that caught me was that, sure we all 'know' what our potential is, or at least we have some level of knowledge on that, but do we really feel it, and what about our kids. If we can truly help our children to understand and feel the potential inside of them, wouldn't that be the definition of a successful parent?

  1. Seeing others and ourselves through the eyes of faith is an incredible topic! I feel it crucial to aid my children in doing anything good that their hearts desire, and not try to stop any dreams. They have unlimited potential! I also feel it of utmost importance to not put blocks in our lives that would stop us from reaching our full potential as well.
