The Family: A Proclamation to the World

WE, THE FIRST PRESIDENCY and the Council of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.
ALL HUMAN BEINGS—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose.

How wonderful is that beginning of the Proclamation to the World?!? To know we are the spirit children of God and are created in his image. Think what a happy place this world would be if people could see this in themselves! 
I am so grateful that I am blessed to be surrounded by these beautiful people and to know that we are sealed together for eternity.
