a perspective i'd like to hear more often.

"This is the church of Jesus Christ, not the church of marrieds or singles or any other group or individual. The gospel we preach is the gospel of Jesus Christ, which encompasses all the saving ordinances and covenants necessary to save and exalt every individual who is willing to accept Christ and keep the commandments that he and our Father in Heaven have given. ....

An eternal marriage will be composed of a worthy man and a worthy woman, both of whom have been individually baptized with water and with the Spirit; who have individually gone to the temple to receive their own endowments; who have individually pledged their fidelity to God and to their partner in the marriage covenant; and who have individually kept their covenants, doing all that God expected of them."

-Pres. Howard W. Hunter, "The Church is for All People," August 1990

Ditto. I think some people forget that they need to first and foremost, have a relationship with their Heavenly Father, then others sould be second, third, fourth.... I think I fall into this catergory sometimes... Thanks for reminding today what's important Rach.
