Charity Never Faileth

Teach them TO LOVE.  This has to be TRAINED!
Most of the problems in family life are heart problems- a lack of love for each other.
I have studied the definition of charity and posted it
in my kitchen with a "Be" value attached to each part.
Below each value is a picture from the scriptures that demonstrates that value.
I also put them to a song- to the tune of "In our Lovely Deseret"
to help them memorize it.
This has really helped us have more love in our home.




CHARITY SONG
(tune= “In our lovely Deseret)
Be ye patient, be ye kind
Be ye temperate all the time
Be respectful, grateful, generous and clean.
Be ye humble, wise and true-
Diligent in all you do,
So that Faith and Hope and Charity are seen.
Chorus:
Do ye the right thing in the right way.
Be ye perfect- just like God.
Fill your heart and fill your mind-
Full of love and truth combined,
So that if you look it’s charity you’ll find.
