What experiences create in parents an anxious desire for their children to partake of the Savior’s Atonement?

Thomas R. Valletta

“Parents who have, through gospel living, partaken of the fruit of the tree (which is the love of God) and who know the sweet sense of surrender in the kingdom of God will also be stirred, as Lehi was, for they too will be anxious, exceedingly anxious, that their families should partake also. Those who have known the sweetness of service in the kingdom and who have looked at life through the lens of the gospel will ever be restless with a divine discontent until their families do partake of that precious fruit and thereby witness for themselves” (Maxwell, That My Family Should Partake, 1).
