Same-sex Marriage

As a believer of the Heavenly Father and the beliefs of our religion, we need to make a stand for traditional marriage.

As Latter-day Saints, I don’t believe we blow out of proportion the redefining of marriage. We have our beliefs, and we defend those beliefs vigorously. I think if we don’t protect our ideas, then we will slowly drift to the back. People won’t take notice of us and our beliefs. 

Within my circle of influence, I can relate and voice what I have learned. I can stand for traditional marriage with a strong sense of self. I can teach my children and grandchildren that marriage is between a man and a woman.In our family we vigorously defend traditional marriages.

Because I am not ready for the tough times that are upon us, I have gone back to school. I hope to gain the confidence I need and obtain knowledge to be better prepared for my beliefs in tough times, which will only get more challenging.

In my life, the blessings of my family have been great. We have grown stronger as a unit. Elder Nelson assured us that as we stand for marriage and as we remain true and faithful, the Lord will help us and protect us. The church has been a blessing to my family. It has helped us in our time of need. It has lifted us when we need a little extra encouragement. It has shown us the way to protect our children and grandchildren by praying on our knees. 

The Fourteenth Amendment protects many people, but it should have never been changed to defend same-sex marriage. Heavenly Father ordained marriage and no man’s law can change that.

I believe the government should have never been in the subject of marriage.  Marriage is something that is between a man and a woman. I will never change in my mind that marriage is between a man and a woman.
