I love that this reading coincides with what we have been talking about in Ward council this past week. We talked about the same things that Elder Ballard talked about. being a part of the ward counsel committee is so enlightening but also so crucial to recognizing that we need to be one. There are decisions that are made that maybe some of the committee doesn't agree with. That is okay, we don't have to agree, but we do have to agree and be on board with the decision that Bishop has decided. 
The same applies in our families, we have to be on board and agree with each other whether we agree or not. We have to be united. As couples we lead the family together, not one in charge of something and another in charge of something else. There is so much importance with our children seeing that we as parents are united, miracles happen and love grows because they see that we are working together, not against each other. To function successfully and effectively we have to work together.
I think with our ward councils running well, the ward members see the unity and carry it to their families.
We need to see righteous priesthood leaders to be part of our families. We need partners. We need people who will be equal. As parents we need to set the example of how a council can work. Working together to build relationships and find the way of family unity. Unification is what makes our purpose for eternal families possible.
