Everyone is God's children

 I had a very interesting conversation with one of God's sons tonight. Not only did it feel like I was talking to my brother who I miss horribly every day of my life, but I could tell that this son needed to hear what I had to say. I felt like we all need to be reminded of this from time to time so we don't forget or to come to understand the truth more clearly. 

We are all God's children, I don't care how far you are from living the gospel. I don't care if you are straight, gay, or whatever you are still a child of God who deserves to be loved and accepted. We can accept people as they are without agreeing with them on everything. I mean even some of my closest friends I don't agree with 100 percent of the time, but it doesn't stop me from loving them. So if you are judging those around you instead of loving them please stop. We all need to be reminded of our worth, because even the strongest of us struggle with life at times. 

If you have gone off the covenants path and feel like you are failing or are so gone that you can't come back know a few things. First, you are a child of God who has more worth and power than you can ever imagine! Second, it doesn't matter what you have done in the past, because we all have sinned. God says that church is a hospital and if that's true then that means not a single person who goes is perfect. Third, the savior has already taken care of anything we may have done in the past. It doesn't mean go and sin, but it does mean there's a way back for everyone who wants to come back. Please realize we need everyone at church, I don't care if you are living the gospel or if you are living a life that is hurting yourself as well as others. After all coming to Christ is the best way to live a good life that you can be proud of. Lastly please as this has been brought up by a few people I know who says that they feel like members are judgemental please remember to reach out, to love, to accept and like I said accepting a person doesn't mean that you agree with them. Even if you disagree with their lifestyle there's no reason to be a hater and say things that will hurt another.
