"All human beings - male and female- are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents,and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual pre mortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose."
I wanted to bear my testimony that I know that gender is essential to our roles here on earth. We have and always will be what we have always been both male and female. The male and female characteristics and spirits compliment each other. When eternally sealed together in the temple I know that husbands and wives create the best environment to raise the spirit sons and daughters of God. I hope that my children will know how important it is to be the gender that they are and know that it is by divine design that they were born into male and female counterparts. I am so grateful for my gender role as a woman, mother, wife, and sister. I enjoy nurturing and teaching children, as well as balancing out the fun and authoritative figure that your father has embraced as he righteously holds the priesthood. It is important that we work together to become better people and the best version of our selves. "Neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man." I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
