All in Gospel Living
All we do in families and in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is aimed to help each other get to the temple to make covenants and participate in holy ordinances with the Lord! This is the point! Then, we work to keep these covenants.
Having spiritual grit is critical in today’s world. It is our choice whether or not we remain true to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The actions we take each day will either bring us closer to Jesus Christ or further from Him.
Not only will a Christ-centered foundation impact the personal lives of our children, but it will, in turn, lift our communities. It will have an impact on the world.
I want to be ALL IN. I want to pitch my tent near the temple, and facing the temple. I want my heart fixed on the Lord and the covenants I have made with Him in His holy house. I want to leave the enticements of the world far behind me…without ever longingly looking back.
The priesthood is the power and authority of God delegated to man on earth. It is through this priesthood that blessings are given.
As believers in Jesus Christ, we want to be known by HIS name. We are Christians and we want the world to know it. Using our correct name is one way we can do that.
When depression or doubt or demons have tried to grab ahold of us, the divine pattern of reflecting, recording, and remembering can help bring us back-back to the loving arms of an amazing Father in Heaven and a powerful Jesus Christ.
Simplify, prioritize, and include the Lord in your personal growth by praying for the enabling power of the Atonement! If you do so, there is no need to wait until January to begin a righteous resolution! There is never a reason to quit in February when you already think you failed.
Jesus Christ himself was baptized. We show we are obedient to him and the commandments he gave us by following in Jesus’s footsteps and being baptized as well.
People have worn religious clothing for centuries—since Adam and Eve. (Genesis 3:21) Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that have made covenants in holy temples are no different. The holy garment is not a secret—it is, however, sacred.
I KNOW Heavenly Father also KNOWS you. I know He loves you. I know that He knows your struggles…even the petty ones. I know that He knows how to alleviate even your heaviest burdens. I know that He desires to help and bless you on your way back home, and I know that He WILL…if you will HEAR HIM.
In a world where women are demeaned, abused and undervalued, I am deeply grateful and comforted that the Lord has given us divine direction about our true and everlasting role in His glorious plan for all of His children.
He has helped me in my darkest times – times much worse than a mere tantrum. He knows me inside and out, my worst thoughts and actions, and yet He loves me anyway.
A prophet is “One designated by God to be His spokesperson and to be a teacher, revelator and witness of gospel truths.”
Where we lack, He makes up the difference. Where we sink, He buoys us up. Where we fail, He prevails. He is our Champion.
And also, ye yourselves will succor those that stand in need of your succor; ye will administer of your substance unto him that standeth in need; and ye will not suffer that the beggar putteth up his petition to you in vain, and turn him out to perish. Mosiah 4:16
Being a Mormon means that you understand that through the Redeeming Atonement of Jesus Christ, you - all of us - can overcome sin and sorrow, pain and grief. It is knowing that by His Grace, you can overcome yourself. Simply put, being a Mormon means being a Christian.
“A man filled with the love of God, is not content with blessing his family alone, but ranges through the whole world, anxious to bless the whole human race” Joseph Smith
The Lord has an individual road map for each of us. Sometimes it doesn’t look like we expected it would look. Often it is different than what we planned. And, it almost never is the same as a friend’s road map. But always, His path for us will be the best. It will bring us to the greatest possible happiness.
