Book of Mormon-- 2 Nephi 19
6 For unto us a achild is born, unto us a son is given; and the bgovernment shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, The cMighty God, The dEverlasting Father, The Prince of ePeace.
As I was studying different sources to help me understand Isaiah better, one of the sources asked the question, "In what way or ways does the government rest upon Christ’s shoulder?"
Honestly I have never noticed that line of this scripture before because my focus was on the wonderful titles it gives to our Savior and I always think how they are so true! But I am so happy "the government shall be upon his shoulder" was brought to my attention.
Of course we have governments established throughout this world, but who is the ultimate Governor?? THE SAVIOR IS! He came to this earth, established laws, and He will judge us by His laws. Instead of focusing only on things like the speed limit, we need to focus on things such as Loving One Another. He is the higher law.

Every Monday night we have been asked my the Church to hold Family Home Evening. Last night we took our family to the pool. I am so thankful the Church asks us to do this. I have such good memories of having Family Home Evening as a little girl in my family and now we are making our own.
