Just when you feel like you want to give up in doubt and uncertainty, or just when you feel like you’re not good enough, strong enough, or just..enough..go back to what is tugging on your heart, go back to the promptings of the Spirit that got you to this Point. Listen to the promptings of the sweet Spirit, that at one time confirmed that it was right. And don’t be afraid to move forward with confidence- rise up and listen to the tuggings of your heart, not of the world, not of Satan, but from God.

In Come Follow Me today we are reading from Mormon chapter 1. And I’m taking the conference talk from one that was written at the time that I did not specify and I hope that you will research it and share with me what you find out… It is astounding! It is Out Day Today!! So what can we do to help change our corner of the world and protect us from what is going on, and have hope that we can help our family and our communities return back to Him? ...and heed the warnings of the prophets? Please join me as we look to the Savior and stay in His boat where he offers calm and peace and promise.

This is going to be my longest podcast and it comes from the Come Follow Me program and reading in fourth Nephi chapter 1 starting at about verse 19. And, ouch, yep, talking about Ezra Taft Benson’s amazing 1989 conference talk about pride—it is incredible and he changes my heart each time I read it but I nearly changed the course of my day on a family gathering to Lagoon over something so small and simple and I’m quite embarrassed but this is me and I’m trying to be real. Swallowing pride one less trigger at a time

We may have the same recipe but for some reason they all turned out a little bit differently when we arrive to the church gathering. Do we shun the other because they put corn flakes on top instead of Ritz crackers? How can we maintain unity to just love one another and help each other return to our Savior- Even if we do things just a little bit differently than the way our neighbor does it? If you are not one year not mine.

My desire? I want to live with courage and bravery and joy and be relentless in my pursuit of bringing one soul unto Christ, most importantly, my children. What is your greatest desire?

Represent well.

4 Nephi 3 ..they gave there ALL.. And a special reflection on an Elect Lady who shows what it means to give All she had.

Referencing President Nelson’s most recent conference talk “Let God Prevail” we can experience peace knowing we are right where we need to be. Trusting in His timing that it will all come together for our family, our future, our relationship with God as we submit our will in His, completely.

In this episode I am reflecting upon third Nephi chapter 7 verses one through 15 but most importantly to the word yield in verse five. Also I am reflecting upon elder Dieter F Uchtdorf’s 2010 conference talk “Of What Matters Most”. Pause, reflect, slow down, and yield— turn your heart to God, family, friends, and most importantly, take care of yourself During these turbulent times.

Which pot of flowers are you? Bask in the Glorious light of the gospel of Jesus Christ! Turn out of the shadows..and listen today to learn just how to do that.
