As a young woman you are blessed with divine feminine qualities. Increase your understanding of and appreciation for womanhood. Read Proverbs 31:10–31 and two talks on womanhood from a conference issue of the Church magazines. Review what “The Family: A Proclamation to the World” (see page 101) says about being a wife and a mother. Then ask your mother or another mother you admire what she thinks are important attributes for being a mother. List the attributes in your journal. Then choose one of those attributes and strive to develop it. After two weeks report your success to a parent or leader.

Print off The Family: A Proclamation to the World with the Young Women’s Theme in black and white, and use markers, pencils, or highlighters in the value colors to highlight certain paragraphs that correspond with that value.
The Family: A Proclamation to the World not only outlines the roles of men and women in families, but mentions the two most glorious examples of motherhood: Heavenly Mother and Eve. What can you learn about the roles of women in God’s plan from these examples?
