"The Lord has given us prophets to guide and direct us. We have been promised that if we follow the counsels of the prophets and apostles we will avoid unnecessary pain and eventually gain eternal happiness." I definitely believe it. This blog will be a compilation of quotes from the prophets, on specific topics, that will help govern a life.
Joy
While on a walk with my Dad, he told me something that I will never forget. He said, "One of my biggest regrets is that I feel I didn't show my family the joy in the gospel." I have two wonderful sisters who have chosen not to be a part of the church. If they had experienced more joy and less guilt and obligation would they still take part in the gospel? All I know is that I love them so much and have learned so much from them. They are remarkable and smart. They just don't feel the truth, joy and blessings of the gospel or else I am sure they would want it. God wants us to be happy. I believe he wants us to be sincere and hard-working and he never wants us to feel guilty or inadequate. Guilt is unnecessary. I know that I need to realize where I can improve and accept that life is a journey of learning step by step. God will help me improve and will never judge me for where I am at in my progression.
