This week has been great so far. My husband was great to remind me of a great scripture I first memorized at the age of 13. It has been on my mind a lot, though it was through him that it finally struck a core. Let me put things into perspective a little.
If you have been reading you are aware of my struggles. My mind thought and the feelings I have been struggling with. I struggle a lot of knowing if this is something I need to focus on, or is it just something I am trying to force. If you have watched me, or you can probably tell from my posts, it is something I am trying to avoid. I do really great, and then something happens to distract me, stall me, or pull me away. And I get frustrated because I have now again delayed the end of the road, and my patience wears thin.
As I was discussing this with my husband, he reminding me of the scripture: "I the Lord am bound when ye do what I say, but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise." Doctrine and Covenants 82:10
So I am yet learning more. When I strive to follow the promptings of the Spirit, and do what I know the Lord desires me to do, I am blessed. What blessings have I received? I have felt peace and comfort. I have felt hope and courage. I feel happy. The negative voice inside is harder to hear, the cries of my failure are being vanquished. My outlook is optimistic and bright!
So, listen to the quiet pulls of your heart, the soft whisperings of the Spirit, follow through and you will be blessed.
