In Praise of those Who Save

I listened to the conference talk "In Praise of Those Who Save" by Elder Utchdorf. It got me thinking about Jared's recent blog post I would encourage all to review it.
Here is a quote or two from it

Rather than attempting to force everyone into a mold of our own making, we can choose to celebrate these differences and appreciate them for adding richness and constant surprises to our lives.

Whatever problems your family is facing, whatever you must do to solve them, the beginning and the end of the solution is charity, the pure love of Christ. Without this love, even seemingly perfect families struggle. With it, even families with great challenges succeed.
“Charity never faileth.”5
It is true for saving marriages! It is true for saving families!
