What Did the Prophet Ask Us to Do?
October, 2023
Think
Celestial!
I invite you
to adopt the practice of “thinking celestial.”
I encourage
you to begin with the end in mind.
When you
make choices, I invite you to take the long view- an eternal view. Put Jesus Christ first, because your eternal
life is dependent upon your faith in Him and His atonement.
When you are
confronted with a dilemma, think celestial!
When tested
by temptation, think celestial!
When life or
loved ones let you down, think celestial!
When someone
dies prematurely, think celestial!
When someone
lingers with a devastating illness, think celestial!
When the
pressures of life crowd in upon you, think celestial!
As you
recover from an accident or injury, as I am doing now, think celestial!
As you think
celestial, your heart will gradually change.
You will want to pray more often and more sincerely. Please don’t let your prayers sound like a
shopping list.
Our prayers
can be- and should be- living discussions with our Heavenly Father.
If you struggle
with an addiction, seek the spiritual and professional help you need. Please do not let an obsession rob you of
your freedom to follow God’s plan.
When you
make decisions regarding morality, please think celestial. And if you have been unchaste, I plead with
you to repent. Come unto Christ and
receive His promise of complete forgiveness as you fully repent of your sins.
When someone
you love attacks truth, think celestial, and don’t question your testimony.
There is no
end to the adversary’s deceptions.
Please be prepared. Never take
counsel from those who do not believe.
Seek guidance from voices you can trust- from prophets, seers, and revelators
and from the whisperings of the Holy ghost, who “will show unto you all things
what ye should do.” Please do the
spiritual work to increase your capacity to receive personal revelation.
