Yesterday was such a great day for testimony building. Yesterday during Sacrament meeting, most of the testimonies were shared by little kids. We laughed at some of the funny things they said, but one of the little boys included in his testimony "I know that every time we say a prayer it will be answered." I thought about that for a minute and what a wonderful blessing it is to believe in the power of prayer and to know that I will never be alone. and that I can find answers to the difficult questions in life.
We also had a fireside last night by John Livingstone. Points I got from it:
*you are the kind of person you want to be. If you REALLY WANT to be different, you will be.
*you may think discouraging thoughts, but how long they stay there is up to you.
*we can choose what we love
*we may not choose how we feel at the beginning, but we can choose to think and act a particular way, and use that to change the way we feel.
*spiritual rebirth is when you want to be good. you want to covenant and make promises with your Heavenly Father.
*we have a spiritual radar and if we use it, we can get help with the big stuff AND the little stuff.
*draw your line before temptation, not before transgression.
wow, so much to think about and improve on. but it was a great Sunday :)
3 weeks til school starts, two weeks til Zion, one day until Anne gets here :) life is going by so fast!
