Letting Our Trials Refine Us

3

I’ve been feeling a little put upon lately. Well, to be honest, for the past several years. And it’s been ticking me off so much that I’ve gained 40 pounds. And that ticks me off too. And in the midst of my ticked-offedness this morning, I read this verse of scripture: “For behold, I have […]

Free Step Friday: Offering Our Whole Souls (Step 3)

0

What is Free Step Friday (#freestepfriday)? Click here for details. Scripture: Omni 1:26—Offer your whole souls as an offering unto him. How much plainer can it be stated? Our whole soul—body and spirit. This is the ultimate act of consecration. It is to come full circle back to God and offer to Him all that […]

We Are All Special Needs Children

0

While in mortality, we are all special needs children. We are babies. We all have our unique set of quirks and flaws and disabilities. We are the equivalent of children who are temporarily handicapped, blinded as we are by the veil—blinded and muffled—wrapped in mortal flesh. Why would God do this? Why would He handicap […]

The Pain or the Purpose

0

We have to accept that life is a battle between two forces—the Truth and the Lie; Christ and the Liar. That’s just the way it is. The tug and pull, the on-again-off-again phenomenon is inevitable. We must also accept that we have no ability to determine the ratio of easy days to not-so-easy days. We […]

Who Are We Going to Fear/Believe?

0

“Fearing” another could be equated with “believing” another. When we “fear” others more than God, it is the equivalent of believing others more than God. We have troubled, angry, hurting parents, for example, who tell us negative things about ourselves. But we go to God and we perceive—through the counsel of God’s prophets and through […]

When We Have No Idea What to Do

0

And now, if the Lord has such great power, and has wrought so many miracles among the children of men, how is it that he cannot instruct me, that I should build a ship. (1 Nephi 17:51) This verse just looks like it’s about ship-building. It’s not. It’s about how a person with absolutely no […]

What a Great Way to Start the New Year!

0

I stayed up pretty late, last night—well, this morning. Only then did I remember that this morning was a Tuesday mornin—my morning to serve as facilitator for the Heart t’ Heart online meeting at 6:30 a.m. (Mountain Time). I am so grateful that I had the chance (and the excuse) to be at that meeting. […]

With the Faith of a Prodigal

0

Today, I can say and truly mean it (and not take it back quite so fast), “Thy will, O Lord, not mine be done”  (Jacob 7:14). Why? Because today I trust Him. Why? Because today I know Him. I have ceased to be like the good son in the Master’s parable, working in my Father’s […]

Peaks and Valleys, Ebbs and Flows

0

If you were in an intensive care unit, would you want the electrocardiogram to suddenly start producing a straight line?  Of course not!  As long as that line is going up and down, it means you’re alive.  Let the line go straight, with no valleys and no peaks, or in other words no ebbs and […]

The Good in All Things

0

This morning, I had been laying in bed awake since 2:10 a.m.  After about 30 minutes I decided to accept the reality of sleeplessness as a gift—a chance to experience some deep solitude. As I pondered on this, the voice of the Lord came into my mind and I perceived these words: Thank you, Colleen, […]
