Brain dump

I would not be here, if I did not believe in Jesus Christ. By that I mean that I would be fishing.

Jesus is much closer than we realize.

No matter what happens in our life, we can have Joy.

Example of someone doing the #Lightofthe World challenge.

P.eople are very very thankful for supportive spouses.

You are never alone Jesus is aware and helping. The example was given of a woman with screaming children in the store and someone said "you are doing a good job as a mother". How would anyone even know that?

Watching a movie and turned it off at midnight, when the movie was not over, but it was a way to show God what is ultimately important.

When a mother that is a most time consuming calling.

If we were told things that would happen years ago, it would not be believable to us, but the gospel is always there to hold on to.

Even as our testimonies waver, if we hold on to our knowledge of the Savior will help us through.

No one really cares about your hair, that is not what matters. Like bearing a aquariumtestimony, sometimes I even close my eyes to just feel the testimonies.

Thankful for the clarity of the day, today.

Our savior is like the guy who has ourp back.

"There is something very right in your hearts."

The rest of Sunday is not sleep, but change of doing a thing and not have to worry about things.

Are they going to do what they need to do when no one is enforcing them.

It seems that knowing more, makes us realize more we could have.

The spirit world is not far from us.

Alma 34:34 you will be the person you were is the person you will be.

Accepting the gospel is something you need to do not because it is sensible, because how life is will change how we think.

Reminded of a book by C.S.Lewis called "Great Divorce" where people from Hell went to Heaven and could not wait to get back.

We can hear lessons, with our ears but not with our hearts. For example, I saw/loved the movie Footloose but could not tell you a single character or plot... so we cannot say if someone has received or rejected the gospel.

Working for God must not be the opposite of effort and stress because it will continue after death, and it tells of rest that comes at death.

A story from Seminary manual about definitely testifying of work that happens after death.

Of the facts of mortality. It will come to an end is sure.

It was not a matter of that she will live and be with us, but peace came from knowing that regardless what happens all will be well.

A potential fatality promotes our testimony of the afterlife.

There IS an afterlife and all that was taught is undeniably true.

Lehi was commanded to go to wikderness and ear what they could find, amod struggles including murmurring children, it is mentioned that men are that they might have joy. Joy comes,because of trials. 

Inspite of hardships, we can and should have Joy.

Count your many blessings.

Missionaries go serve and are nice to others. They find Joy in everything...he could see the good in life.

Savior had difficulties but had Joy despite it, he ought to be the example for us all.

Focus is so important to maintaining joy despite struggles.

SCRIPTURES, FAMILY,  Serving and sharinh. Those things bring joy.

Learn not to ask why because that is focusing on the wrong thing.

Having children brings true Joy.

Making a goal and achieving it brings joy.

So much Joy and peace comes from the temple.

Greatest joy is in seeing our children choose what is right.

Being silly makes you feel joy. And do not smother it.

It is important not to give up amid our struggles.
