monday musing #22

October 26, 2014
Can we just talk about how Provo still thinks it's summer??!
It is fantastic to have 75 degree weather still. No bundling up yet! 

And seriously, Where did October go?? It flew by and on Saturday it will already be November which means the holiday season. 
C.R.A.Z.Y.

Today I went to this awesome regional conference where Elder Ballard spoke. The whole meeting was absolutely fabulous and I'm so glad I was able to go! 

This is what he said:

We all need to find a time to regularly get away from all the clutter of the world, find some place quiet, maybe have your scriptures in front of you and read a few verses, and then have an interview with yourself.

And ask..."where am I? what are my intentions? what are my goals?"

  • Write down what comes to mind about things you need to fix that will help make you the powerful, spiritual person that YOUare
  • Make mental, moral commitments that will prepare you for spiritual responsibilities
  • Think about what it is and where you would like to be 6 months from now
  • Pray for courage and strength to accomplish them
  • Make some goals
-don't set too many or too few
don't make them too high or too low

  • And then go to Gethsemane
-ponder the life of the Savior
-He opened up the possibility of life eternal
-found your life on His teachings
-learn to know the Lord by keeping His commandments
-He has said, "come unto me" 
-keep him ever in your mind

Try it one day during personal study this week and see how it goes! Like he said at conference, stay on old ship zion. Your ship should be heading toward the temple. You can do it!
