Somethings just take WORK!

Making a wish is very simple. Receiving that wish almost never happens instantly. To have a wish come true we might just have to do something to receive it. We cannot wish for a job, and not go and fill out applications. We cannot wish for money without having a job or means to receive it. We cannot wish to get married if we just stay home all day. If we want anything in life we must get up and work for that.

The Gospel is the Same way.  We have been given the tools to be able to return to live with our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. As we use these tools we have been given our lives are more blessed. We find greater Joy and greater peace.


The Tools:

Reading Scriptures

Prayer

Keeping ALL of Gods Commandments

Repenting when we fall short

Gain an understanding of the Atonement

Following the prophets

These are just a few of His tools. If we are willing to show him our love by following his word, we can truly feel peace, joy and love.  In Doctrine and Covenants 82:10 it states:

       "I the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say; but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise." 

I know that if we are willing to be obedient  we will receive all the promises and blessings our heavenly Father has to offer us.
