I have written 8 family histories and genealogies, and each has been so rewarding. I combine caregiving jobs with writing for families. The last person I wrote for had dementia and would ask me what I was doing. I would say, I’m writing a book about you! He’d grumble, “You’re wasting your time.” His daughter and I printed his book last month, a year since he passed away. It is such a beautiful thing to hold a life story in your hands, to see how God was in their life and how things worked out over decades in a way that only God can do. This video is so touching, and I hope more people will record their family history to preserve the values that we are losing in society.

I can't remember the exact quote, but I remember hearing something along the lines of how one person may not be the world, but for one person, you mean the world to them. I think family is a perfect example of this for many of us, and for others, maybe that one person who stood by their side no matter what. Thank you for the reminder of how every day people make such a big difference in the world. ❤

To the world you are just one person, to one person you are the world

I can choose to feel sorrow and resentment toward those who I have felt emotionally abandoned and neglected by, or I can choose to feel grateful for the memories I have, and the family I have who will never abandon or neglect me. My Heavenly family means more to me than any other family I may have, because I know I can trust them to never harm me or irreparably damage my capacity for feeling love, trust, faith, peace. I know I have a loving Father and Mother, and siblings who truly love me. I am given courage, strength, confidence, support, and protection by God, and I am so very grateful for His Divine love for me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful memories and thoughts on the wonderful experiences you've been blessed with. I know DNA isn't as important as the love and devotion God has for me... I find so much comfort knowing His love is perfect. Where others may have failed to provide me with the love, support, and guidance I needed, He will never fail! I know God lives, and loves me too. Everything else that is good in my life is an added bonus. ❤

Thank you for sharing this. It touched me deeply.

To those who read this comment remember this. No matter who you think you are or where are you come from or if you’re old, young, rich, or poor. Know that you are loved in this world. No, that you are remembered and people will notice you are gone and they will miss you dearly. You will never be forgotten. be a light in the world full of darkness be a sun to brighten peoples days and be a moon to shine in someone’s Darkest Hour have a great day 😁

To those who may not have had that experience before…. Start it for those who come after. Be the beginning of a new line of happy memories..

My soul is melting!!! I am feel joyful, I am grateful, I am feel loved. Thank you for such a beautiful Church.

I feel so blessed to know the Sohms. They have made such a difference in my life. Their humility and love are evident in every interaction. I’m so grateful for them.

I think this beautiful video goes to illustrate one of the paradoxes of the gospel. If one wants to live a life that will be important and remembered, it is not about doing big important things. It is about the way we make others important and remember them. “He who finds his life shall lose it, but he who loses his life, for my sake, shall find it.” Our stories are important because they help create others stories too. Let us write them together, with The Author & Finisher of our faith and our stories. 😊❤

Just the realisation of what is important in life. Families, relationships, how we treat others. No one remembers materialistic things of the world. ❤

I’ve been on the fence about sharing my testimony on video with our church, this has had me in floods of tears 😭 talk about the spirit prompting me 🥺🥹🫶🏼 hopefully my story will reach far and wide to help as many people as possible. Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤

Sweet and touching!! Everyone’s story is powerful to someone especially our family.

I pray that everyone that is listening to this prayer, gets there wish come true. 🤗

Incredible video with such an important message. We all think we're nothing special. The Lord wants us to see ourselves, and how we're linked to others, differently.

I’m feeling so happy that I chose this beautiful and inspirational video as a first thing to watch this morning. What a blessing! Thank you so much.

Oh my gosh, this was so good! So encouraging! I rarely think about what my life will mean to the generations to come, but I want to live in such a way that I can encourage posterity the way my great-great-grandmother encourages me! ♥️♥️♥️

What an awesome Church, I have no words, thank you for these video productions, they are awesome!

I loved attending RootsTech in person this year and have watched this beautiful and touching video many times! Everyone has a story! This was incredibly well done Ü♥

What a beautiful and inspiring presentation this is! We all matter more than we can know because of the ripple effect of our efforts to love and serve, and to follow Christ. Thank you so very much!

My favorite Oscar acceptance speech was by JK Simmons. He expressed his gratitude for his wife and said if you are lucky enough to still have them to call your parents. No text just call them tell them you love them. Let them talk for as long as they like

I just want to speak from my heart and say that no matter who you are, wherever you are, whatever you've done in your life, you have a story that is important. Everyone has been sent to earth for a reason. You may not know what that reason is yet, but you can do amazing things and you can help others. You can be supportive and be an example for others. Sometimes we face challenges in our lives, but that's why we're here; to live and learn, but also to teach others. We can be examples and show others how important they are and help them through their trials. You may have already had an impact on someone's life, and you didn't know! I hope that whoever is reading this understands that they are loved and that they are very important to God and his plan!

Family to me is like breathing, and I thank God for the blessing of family. I equate the same love for my wife and kids that God has given to me. I am a proud father and husband and look forward to having grandkids I can teach the gospel and also learn from them. If God so wills for me to live to that age.

I always try to write down any memory I have of my ancestors, and this video inspires me to continue. Much needed fuel. Thank you so much for sharing!

Wow! That was powerful. I was truly touched.

This song is so incredible!

Brought me to tears. Beautiful! ❤️

Thank you for opening our eyes to realize that we all have a special story!😭💕 CTR💕🙏

The best way to hear your story is thru someone else's loving eyes.

This was delightful! We are all of worth.

I have preached this for decades, especially on my show The Story Trek

Isso mostra um grande amor de Deus com as almas pertidas no mundo

What a wonderful message for everyone to hear. It remind's me of my grandparent and what they did for me as I was growing up with so many different Challenger's in life, they would help me in any way possible. Super video,just love it. ♥♥ .

Made my eyes wet 😢! Thinking about my parents who loved us, seven children and they prepared us to accept the Gospel ❤

😇😇😇 Hermoso La Genealogía es Amor por nuestros Antepasados !!!

What a beautiful video and message...need a new box of tissues now.

O how I love this the Oriental lady is so beautiful God bless all the families

We are all worth remembering. No one is ordinary. ❤

As I view this deeply moving story, I am struck with the power of the individual. I see that each moment of our life we are contributing to the energy and power of humanity - for good or for bad. Even a seemingly obscure or inconsequential individual has great capacity to influence others - for good or bad - with each act of love, instruction, service - or unkindness, abuse, evil. With perhaps our greatest power - our agency - we make moment by moment deposits into the souls of humanity, and in turn build our legacy and contribute to the legacies of others. Even in our quiet alone moments, we are building who we are and what we will become, and as such contribute to the good or bad of humanity. Perhaps this is why a loving god commanded us first and foremost to love Him with all our heart, might, mind and strength, and then right after that, to do the same for our fellow man. Truly if we do that to its fullness, do we really need to focus on anything else?

What a beautifully done video. And how helpful to those of us who may not se our lives as extraordinary. Really good reminder that our everyday choices and examples are so important.

This was very beautiful, im reminded of my parents and the impact they've had in my life. I also remember that beloved song, I am a child of God and he has sent me here, has given me a loving home with parents kind and dear...🥹 Thank you❤❤❤

There You Did It, You had to go and Make me Cry! 🙏🙏😥😥🙏🙏

The timing of this video is pretty revelatory!

This was beautiful, really touching. Thank you!

Thank you for this beautiful and well put together video. It helps to have these types of things to remind us of the glorious purpose and special nature of our identity.

This is so heartfelt, I watched it between sessions-many times. So beautiful and well done. Everybody's story is worth hearing, I love it.

What a powerful video! It beautifully conveys the message that each person's story is significant, emphasizing that everyones stories shape our world. Let's spread the word and celebrate the richness of every story!

So touching and beautiful.❤️

Absolutely marvelous 🫂🙏🏻💜

This is incredible video ever. ❤😎😃😢. Yes we have to remember what god has done for us so we can remember our love one no. Matter what.

This is so sweet! I'm so glad you did this!

Meu coração chora de alegria ao ver essa pessoas chorando ao ver senhor Jesus abençoado cada vez mais um abraço de Fortaleza Ceará

That was so beautiful! Bawled my eyes

I wish it didn't have the music. Have music between people but not at the same time. Of course I love the video of people talking and the singing. Writing our story and that of our loved ones is rewarding.

This was so beautiful! Such wonderful stories!

Very touching! ❤

I really like how these videos lift me up :)

Grateful flowing of tears…..♥️🙏✨

Very god my greetings from Argentina

That was so beautiful. Thank you. 🙏

Wonderful story

Incredible.

So good!❤

Today is the best day of my life.

Today is my daughter's wedding reception. I am not invited. I chose to extract myself from a toxic relationship because I realized I was giving my children a bad example of what it was to be married and what to tolerate, how you should expect to act and how you should expect to be treated. The children chose the alienating parent over me She came to my mothers house to "share some news with her" (news of her engagement) but to not share it with me. My mother told her then you better not share it. But they abandoned us. They stayed longer than anyone else would have, and if you act following this poor example of my ex, then don't expect to be married long. This last bit of advice struck her dumb and she didn't know how to respond to that.

I’m so sorry. The irony is that you are the one with the broken heart because you have the heart to break.

❤❤❤ this is amazing ❤❤

EXCELLENT ❤

Have you done any good in this world yet? Will anyone miss you when you're gone? How big is your footprint going to be when you leave this world? When you leave this world, you will see your whole life flashed before you,and that's guaranteed the good the bad the ugly. Repentance is a glorious thing for you and others. If only we could love one another as god has always loved us. This would be a pleasant world to live in.

What's your story?

Yes, your life is worth remembering, but your church will devalue it by not listening to you.Through policy and unforgiveness it will retard your progress.

Romans 8:[1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. . JESUS Christ is God in the flesh no matter what your religious modern bibles proclaim. GODS not the author of confusion... yet every religious group finds a more modern copywriter version to twist their religious ideas OR cherry pick

Tooooooo much editing and camera work. This is advertising. I choose not to be influenced by camera angles and lighting effects. It is not sincere. It is not meaningful. The message is clear.

I usually like watching these LDS videos especially the old ones, but honestly this one is boring.

Not my experience at all. Even church family are pretty lame
