Make Life Meaningful

 There are times in one's life when it doesn't feel fulfilled. It doesn't feel like there's any meaning behind any of it. So, what are we to do when those feelings come upon us. What are we to do when we feel so lost and out of control that there isn't anything that can be done and we are lost. I'm not sure I have the answers to any of those questions.

I do know that looking to God has helped. God will never leave us alone. He will always be there for us. His Son Jesus Christ gave His life for us so we can return to the Father one day, blameless without sin marking us. For no unclean things can enter the kingdom of God.

It would be nice to always have the faith required to make it past this life. Sometimes I don't feel like I have the necessary faith to do that. I'm sure I'm not alone in these thoughts. There are billions of other people out there searching for the same thing I am looking for. Peace. Peace of mind, peace of heart, peace of soul. Someday I hope to be able to find this peace I speak of. It would be a great ally in my search for the truth.

I can only imagine what life would be like without famine, crime, war, or any of the many other things that afflict people in this life. There has to be a way to get past it all. A way to have a common goal among all of our neighbors in order to better improve ourselves. I just don't know what that plan of attack would look like. 

Look, I'm tired. Tired of second guessing myself. Wondering where I stand before God. How I'm doing in all of this life. Yet I continue to wonder because I haven't gotten an answer yet about any of it. I have to ask myself at times, is an answer really needed? Somedays I think it is necessary. Other days I don't care. Today, I care.

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

What's The Point?

 So, tell me, what is the point of believing in a spiritual supreme being? I often wonder what that is all about. I know religions say that God, as some call him, is our father. We pray by starting with our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Yet sometimes it feels like he is absent from our lives. Is it due to how we are living our lives? What exactly is the cause of that feeling? Some people believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost are one person. Others do not. It is interesting to me to see what all churches believe in. I myself do not go to church. I don't believe in organized religion. I have my bible on my phone, so it's me and my bible. That is my link to God. It makes me wonder if that's enough though. I have faith in Christ, I believe in him. Is my faith sufficient to be forgiven of my sins? I do not know. I do know that wherever I end up in the afterlife, I will have done my best to follow Christ. I believe the scriptures which lay out Christ's...

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?
