Faith In Family Life

Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities.



The 4th Article of Faith teaches us that Faith is the first principle and ordinance of the gospel.

What is Faith?

The LDS Bible Dictionary teaches us that Faith is to hope for things that aren't seen, but that are true.  Faith is a principle of action and of power.

Studies have show that couples who regularly attend church drop their chances of divorce by nearly 35%!  It is interesting to find the link and correlation to faith and to relationships.  Having a foundation of faith not only helps you spiritually, but it also helps you in your relationships as well.  You are receiving spiritual guidance that you can use in your everyday life.

When we have faith in our life, many things become possible.  Sometimes the Lord wants to test our faith to see how we will respond.  I love this video of a family who used their faith and recognized it and how He was blessing their lives.  She also thanked our Heavenly Father for the miracle he showed this family.  She recognized she needed a better relationship with Heavenly Father and to pray constantly.
