Lessons learned

I’m sitting here reading and learning about some people who were not living righteously or according to the knowledge they had and what they grew up believing, they were greedy and they started following the wrong crowd, they became so past feeling which led to their destruction as a people spiritually and eventually physically. They now needed to rely on someone else to tell them of all the things they were doing that was affecting their spirit and hurting those around them, that if they didn’t change they would be cast off forever and God could not save them, they were blind to it all, they became so self centered and self serving. They didn’t even think about seeking forgiveness. I wondered why it gets to that point, how could they be in that space where they once understood so much and were so good, but now are choosing so many wrong things that affect them so negatively and hurt so many? As I was applying the things I learned it opened my eyes to see how I sometimes do the same thing, at least as far as forgetting, maybe I forget to show gratitude, or to be forgiving or to seek forgiveness when necessary, so I asked myself “When do I get into a space where I kind of shut down and don’t always do what I’m supposed to or where I’m forgetting the blessings God has given me and I complain or where my wanting and desires are no longer righteous and loving?” Then I started to see how this definitely applies to everyone, we start becoming more self centered and see only our own wants and needs and suddenly what we do to bless and benefit others just slowly becomes what will make only me happy. It’s like We stop seeing the blessings and all that God has done for us and become past feeling, the only way I get myself out of this rut is by recognizing that there is a higher power offering me the chance to feel love, peace, joy and forgiveness. When I start to “humble” myself I can be open to the feelings that bring me to my knees to show sorrow for the wrong I have done which then gets turned into peace and forgiveness, when I allow my Savior to be the healer, I start to recognize that it’s not all about me, there’s a greater purpose for me and why I’m here, I then get into a space of being excited to share what I am feeling and to reach out to others, to connect on a more personal, understanding level, to teach my children through example a better way to live and to strive in every aspect to recognize when I need to humble myself enough and that the Savior can do greater things through me. None of this is meant to bring anyone down or to make us feel like we are worthless, the whole purpose of what I learned and what I’m trying to share is that there is hope and it only comes through a power so much higher than myself, that this power can change the way you view your life, the way you respond to life and the trials and hardships, it can heal the very core of your being even your soul so that you feel empowered through that higher power to move forward and reach your greatest potential to do greater things than you ever knew possible, to BECOME the person you want to become. I pray that there comes a point that you realize deep down that you are worthy just for being you, just for existing, who you are is enough, you are worthy of great abundance in all aspects of your life, you can do hard things, you are courageous, you know who you are, you are capable, you are loved, you make a difference, you are wanted and needed here.
