Why This Life?

If there’s anything I don’t understand or grasp about this life it’s this. Why does it have to be so difficult at times? I don’t get it. I mean ok, life has to be hard some of the time. But all of the time really? It doesn’t compute. Maybe someday I’ll have things figured out, but not today. Not anytime soon at least. For now I’ll just have to wait and see what’ll happen when all is said and done. That might be a long time.

Life is meant so we can have joy, isn’t it? I mean that’s what I thought it was all about. Maybe I don’t understand how this life is meant to be perceived in any way, shape, or form. That could be my own problem.

If I have the ability to begin to understand why I have these feelings, maybe I’ll be able to understand the better parts of life and learn to enjoy them. Am I meant to enjoy this life while I have it? Surely I would hope so. I mean if I didn’t enjoy life, what would be the point of it all?

So I guess it all comes down to how happy do I want to be in this life. If that’s a valid statement/question, then I think I am on the right path. If only things were that simple at times. I don’t think or believe life can be that simple. It takes a lot of courage to get through whatever this life produces and it would seem that this life has a lot of things to consider.

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?
