Places of Security

This scripture in The Book of Mormon is one that I have skimmed right over until my good husband centered an entire Family Home Evening lesson on this simple line:

3 Nephi 4:15:  "And it came to pass that the armies of the Nephites did return again to their place of security."

Eric pointed out that just as the Nephites had returned to their place of security after battling the Gadianton Robbers; our families also need a safe place to return to after battling a hard day at school, work, bullies, and disappointments.  We had a great family discussion on how we can each make our home a place where we all feel loved, accepted, safe, welcome, and secure.  Thanks Eric for turning such a simple scripture into a great lesson that really stuck with me!
