"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.
Pride
I feel like pride is such a prominent problem and it is so hard to beat! Sometimes it sneaks into my life and I don't realize it until it bites. I really like the talk "Beware of Pride" because I feel like it really explains what pride is to the point that I can pin point it in my life. I read it several times every year. For me the best way to beat pride is to try and lift others up. Pride can come from the thirst for admiration, love and acceptance. However when I try to provide those things for other people I feel like they are taken care of for myself. Pride is so gross and painful. I hate it.
