The Call To Action

What is Charity?       charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

Charity is the pure love of Christ! When we follow the example of Jesus Christ we follow him through love. With our love of Christ, we can overcome any temptation that comes upon us; the love for God is always greater than any temptation. LOVE IS THE CALL TO ACTION, when we gain a love for the savior and try to honor him and take upon us the name of Christ, we take it upon ourselves to try and help all of the children of God, meaning everyone, and show forth our charity. For without charity we are nothing!

The Important Decision

The most important decisions in our life can often times be the ones that we have already made. Like whether we are going to drink alcohol, do drugs or be involved in bad company. Yet if we make these decision in early in our life, like going on a mission for me, then it isn't going to be an issue later on when the situation actually calls for an answer. We may be put in some situations that may challenge our choice that we have already made, but if your already have an answer it is always easier to stick to that choice. If you haven't made some of those decisions yet, than it is not too late, make the choice and prepare yourself. The most important and beneficial decision, is one that has already been made for the better.

The Book of Mormon gives answers of how to live our lives. How to make those decisions, and what decisions can be most beneficial for us today to bring us closer to our savior.

Beauty Of It All

"Each puzzle piece brings us closer to the beauty of it all." 






  




      The really neat thing about this life is that every experience that we have, whether it is good or bad, is like gaining a puzzle piece to the whole picture. When we go through life and try our hardest to keep our eye single to God, our experiences will gives us light on how to live our lives better, and it will be like one puzzle piece closer to getting the whole picture of how to live our lives. The next step is having the courage to live life how we know we should after gaining the puzzle piece.

Raise your vision

A man that seeks not a challenging thing,
grows up that same old being,
and when the challenge comes wanted or not,
he'll know not where to find the strength that's sought.

----Challenges in our life are for us to grow, that when we are faced with the power of the enemy, we will be able to understand how to come off conqueror because we have already been through similar challenge.

It's not what you say, It's what you feel.. (3) Sound

Beautiful things are felt when you listen to music that will uplift you, and bring happiness to you. In times that I have felt down or just had feelings I couldn't get over, about something that made me mad, there was always a song that I could listen to that would bring me into the state that I wanted to be in. It brought me the good feelings that were deep inside that only could be reached by listening to something that can make the good feelings that already existed inside of me come to the surface, but just needed to be found again. Sound has a promising assurance to make us feel better if we seek the music that will uplift our soul and bring us the feelings of comfort joy and happiness that we want to have, and bring to others..

Patience

"By the patient accumulation of these small flakes, it has brought me great wealth." - Elder M. Russle Ballard.              This story that was shared by Elder Ballard about the man that gathered the small flakes of gold instead of only shooting for the golden nugget is a good demonstration of how we can live our lives. If we treasure up a little here and a little there of the things to are possible for us to get, we will bring ourselves wealth in all things. But if we cast aside the small things only looking for the giant pay off, we may miss what patient accumulation could have brought us.

Hope alone doesn't cause success, for Many hopes are shipwrecked in laziness. But hope is a part of a three legged stool, along with Faith and Charity. Without all three, ye can not stand. --- General Conference
