This morning I studied 1 Nephi 2:10-13. It always amazes me that people I meet are surprised at the fact that there are always opposites. There is always opposition in all things. It's a law of nature! I learned in science class Isaac Newton's law of motion. "For every action there is an equal and… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 453

Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 452
Today I studied a few more verses in 2 Nephi 2... but not many because I was distracted by the next doctrine taught... Jesus IS THE PLAN! I'd write more about the verses I read today, But I am exhausted. I am grateful for the people who hung around so we could get the rest… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 452
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 451
This morning while I was studying scriptures I only got through one verse. I know that sounds lame, but I just needed to ponder that verse for the day. “And men are instructed sufficiently that they know good from evil.” – 2 Nephi 2:5 I think we forget this truth far too often. People are calling… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 451
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 450
Despite wake more tired than when I went to bed, I am grateful for a new start. It's nice that each day can be a "do over" day, a chance to live just a little bit closer to the Spirit and a chance to make amends for the things I need to work on. Today… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 450
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 429
Arise! That is the word that really jumped out at me as I studied me scriptures this morning. Arise from the dust and be men! My mind immediately goes to one of my favorite scenes in a Disney movie. Mulan whips off her tie and teaches the guys how to climb the wall to save… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 429
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 428
Today I studied a bit of the writings of Isaiah that were preserved by Nephi. 1 Nephi 20 begins with a call for all baptized members to hearken to what he has to saw. We are called to serve him and to keep his commandments (Mosiah 18:10). We are called to always remember him. This… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 428
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 427
Today I am grateful that I had some down time this evening. Lilli is off to Snowball, a school dance. None of my children have ever wanted to get ready at our house or involve us in their fancy dance plans. So we have a quiet night at home. That's nice. I am grateful that… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 427
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 426
It took me nearly a whole chapter of reading and studying to finally get to something that really made me stop and pause. "And there was nothing save it were the power of God, which threatened them with destruction, could soften their hearts." -1 Nephi 18:20 What is my heart like? Is my heart capable… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 426
