Section 82-83

First, I want to let anyone who reads this how grateful I am for how much The Lord has given me! I have a wonderful family, great education, blessed friends, and a complete knowledge of the truth of the gospel. Because I have been given much...you may be singing the rest of the hymn in your head, but I was going to say much is required (82:3). I know I am blessed with all these great things in my life and that only means I must do what is required by The Lord. 

I may be missing some of the messages sent by Him on everything I need to do, but I try my best to keep the commandments, do missionary work, be a good friend, and serve others. I love that The Lord has given me knowledge of my transgressions and the sacrament so that I can repent and be clean again. Simple truth that is plainly stated, "unto that soul who sinneth shall the former sins return" (82:7). I feel like I should make a poster and put that where I ca read it every morning to remind myself that if I recommit a sin, it is like I never repented in the first place! That is why we must repent and then sin no more that we forsake our sins.

Last point to make, I love The Chrurch of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! For many reasons, but this time I would yell that statement at the top of my lungs because of the consecrations of the bishops storehouse that provides for the people in need. I believe that Christ watches over His saints by sending us to help those who need a friend or an angel.  I know I have been comforted by someone after praying for help, and I cherish them and thank them for reaching out to me.
