Have you ever gotten in trouble and gotten a consequence by your mother or your father? Ever feel like after receiving that consequence, your mother or father just doesn’t love you? Your father and/or mother (whoever it is who's punishing you), you might think that they’re doing this because they don’t love you or hate you. But if you really think about it, deep down they absolutely truly LOVE you.
Your parents give you these punishments for your own good and because they know what’s best for you.
Remember the story of Noah and the Ark? Remember all the people that were on the earth before the flood and Noah trying to warn them to repent etc...? They drown in the flood. (Not my point I’m trying to get across)...
Two simple questions: Why would Heavenly Father cause the great flood and drown his own children? Why couldn’t Heavenly Father just come down to cause his people to repent? Reasons: Because he didn’t want his children to suffer the great sins they’ve committed any more. Because he loved them so much. If Heavenly Father just came down and showed them how to repent and such (make the choice for them), they wouldn’t have learned.... he knew what was best for them.
In conclusion, Heavenly Father allows you and I trials and temptations because He loves YOU, knows what’s best for you, and wants you to learn and grow and be strengthened. You can always repent and ask for forgiveness if you ever mess up.
Just know that it is because YOU are LOVED! And: No one is perfect.

Mothers: mothers are precious creations of our heavenly father. Treat them almost like your queen. Give respect to your mother. Listen and obay. I promiss that if you do this, your life could get easier and better. I love my mother and i am planning on telling her how much I love her.
Well, girls are precious creations of our heavenly father also. Eventually they'll grow into an older and wiser princess. They'll become a mother. A sweet, tender loving mother who cares.
All young priesthood holders: Treat all your gall friends (even girl friends) with respect, and love for who they are. Be the best friend that you hope to be or be better.
Girls/ Women: help all us young men to hold strong and true to our standerds. help us stay worthy of our priesthood and priesthood duties. Anythang you can do is verry helpful
