Sometimes You Have to Think

 There are times in life where you have to stop and think for a moment. There's no wrong or right reason to the thinking; you just have to think things through. If you think you're in danger, check it out. If someone tries to kill you, you try and kill them right back. That kind of thing. There's nothing wrong with thinking about what you should do next. Sometimes you have to plan ahead in order to actually get to the next level of life.

If you find you're unable to think, well that's a different story. You can't do anything about something you can't think about. Memorizing lists of things doesn't quite help in this situation either, so don't try it. Having a good outline for what you want to accomplish is all you need to figure out things. If you still can't think things through after doing all that, give it a rest for a day or so; you'll be able to figure out what you want to do eventually.

Overthinking can happen too. That's when your brain just goes on overload and you don't have a clue what to do about any of it. So, what do you do next? Whatever you feel like. If you have a way to calm your brain down after overthinking, do it. You'll be grateful you did.

Think before you act.

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?
