Consistency

For as I, the Lord God, liveth, even so my words cannot return void, for as they go forth out of my mouth they must be fulfilled.

Moses 4:30

I think it no coincidence that one of the points that always comes up in discussions of parenting and discipline is following through and being consistent. That is how Heavenly Father parents us. If our words "return void" after they have gone out of our mouths, our children won't be able to develop trust and faith in us, and they won't be motivated to follow us.
