Frustrated

 I'm frustrated with life. I don't know what to do about it. So many things going on, and I don't have a clue how to handle them all at the same time. It is so darn frustrating. I am at a loss. I know the phrase take it one day at a time, well I have to take it one minute at a time or else I get overwhelmed. I don't know if this life will ever change or if it will just keep moving forward not making a difference. I know certain things can change if they are given a chance. But to get that chance is another question.

I'm worried about a lot of things right now. I don't know how to express myself coherently about any of the things I am worried about. That scares me. I wish I could just open up and talk about it all, but I can't. There are so many things wrong with this picture, so many things I want to fix but I can't. I wish I could figure everything out and it all would be okay. But I don't know how to do that.

It feels like I'm fighting to stay sane these days. Something not unique to the population at large, but it feels unique to me. If I can find a way to stay sane and okay, I can find a way to figure out what's going on with my life right now. Because I don't have a clue what to do or what's supposed to happen.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
