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

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

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?

I am grateful I sleep better last night. My Fitbit says I got over 7 hours of real sleep. That's a whole hour more than usual. The crazy thing is I am in my bed "sleeping" for 8 hours or more. I am just so restless that it doesn't count as real sleep. Today during… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 425

In this mornings study of the scriptures I am struck by Nephi's "can do" attitude which is the opposite of his brothers' "not happening" attitude. Nephi's attitude comes with personal knowledge of the character of God. He trust's Him, and thus believes that he, himself, can do anything with God on his side.

Today in scripture study I am impressed that Nephi really wanted us all to understand that God's commandments must be fulfill or obeyed if we are to understand what true is all about. Not only does God give commandments and expects us to obey, He provides a way for us to be successful. god will… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 422

I made it! I got home from my very long Friday at 5 in the morning. I am grateful for the 2.5 hour nap that I got before I had to head back to school.

It's going to be a long day. Yesterday was a long day too. I tried to get some lighting cues done all day, but every time I'd attempt to start, something else pushed me back... I still am not started and thy need to be done by tomorrow. But the hanging doors got worked on,… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 419
