"I humbly thank our Father in Heaven for His
daughters, you who were willing to come to earth
to live under such uncertain circumstances. Most
men could not handle the uncertainties you are
asked to live with. Social customs require that you
wait to be asked for marriage. You are expected to
go with your husband wherever his employment or
call takes him. Your environment and neighborhood
are determined by his ability to provide, meager or
not. You place your life in the Lord’s hands each
time you bear a child. Men make no such sacrifice.
The blessing of nurturing children and caring for
a husband often is intermingled with many routine
tasks. But you do all of these things willingly because
you are a woman. Generally you have no idea of
how truly wonderful and capable you are, how very
much appreciated and loved, or how desperately
needed, for most men don’t tell you as completely
and as often as needed." - Richard G. Scott
