Turn the Heart of the Children to the Fathers

One of the scriptures the Savior quotes during his visit to the Nephites is comes from Malachi:

"And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse."

In recent months I am seeing more an more how this prophecy is being fulfilled, even with the youth of our ward. When I see the young people turning out in large numbers for baptisms for the dead, I see the heart of the children turning to their fathers - to those who are dead that have gone before them and need these saving ordinances.

When I hear about the young men and women in our ward going monthly with their families or weekly with their friends on their own to the temple , often in the early morning hours before school, I see the heart of the children turning to their fathers.

When I see people starting to go weekly to the temple, who used to only go each month or just a few times a year, I see the heart of the children turning to their fathers.

The increased fulfilling of this prophecy must be pleasing to the Lord and I'm so pleased members of the Shamrock Park Ward are helping to make it happen.
