Free Step Friday: Counseling with the Lord (Step 4)

0

What is Free Step Friday (#freestepfriday)? Click here for details. Scripture: Jacob 4:10—Seek not to counsel the Lord. When we finally surrender our lives and our will to God, we begin to pray in a whole new way. Our prayers begin to have less emphasis on what we want, and more emphasis on what would […]

The Direction of Perfection

0

Could it be that in order to move in the direction of ultimate perfection—toward God, Godliness, Godhood—I must accept myself as being right where I need to be at this moment? In other words, before I can move forward, I need to accept myself just as I am. I need to let go of the […]

A Recipe for Recovery

0

There are only two ingredients in the recipe of recovery—conscious contact with God and honesty. Conscious Contact. To make conscious contact with God, you must first believe it is possible. If you’re not sure you believe you can do it, that’s okay. Start where you are and pray for the Lord’s help. Believe that your […]

Becoming Zion: An Easter Message

0

Yesterday, at the Thursday noon phone meeting of Heart t’ Heart, we had five sisters there from five different states. What an amazing blessing that was! To picture that we five were connecting across so many miles, all of one heart and one mind, admitting our need for the Savior and His personal administration in […]

First Things First

…having first obtained mine errand from the Lord. (Jacob 1:17) In this verse Jacob is sharing with us the actions he took after he first “obtained [his] errand from the Lord.” This is exactly what we need to do every day of our lives. We need to set aside a private, quiet time on a […]

How It All Began

0

As I knelt down this morning to offer my formal “opening prayer” for the day, I automatically (after 20 years of daily repetition) reached for my pen and notepad. I had to smile as the recognition whispered through my mind: “This is how it all began.” And it is so true. It began with my […]

Conscious Contact: The Only Thing That Fills My Need

0

We’re all different, and I can’t tell anyone else’s story or anyone else’s truth, but I am blessed to come here and have a place to tell mine. This is my truth—the truth that it has taken me many years in recovery to finally believe: Conscious contact with God is the only thing that turns […]

The “Common Dilemma” of LDS People

0

And moreover, I say unto you, that there shall be no other name given nor any other way nor means whereby salvation can come unto the children of men, only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent. (Mosiah 3:17) As members of the LDS church we are all caught in a common […]
