Self Reliance

This topic has been on my mind a lot lately and it is something that I really have been pondering about. I have just been thinking about some things that are going on in my life that I don't fully understand and I was feeling frustrated that it seems like my prayers aren't being answered in the way that I want them to. I got to thinking about the topic that has been bothering me and what I have been doing to find answers to this problem. I kept thinking and thinking and I couldn't come up with anything that I was doing.

I think that Heavenly Father wants us to come up ways we can solve our problems and them go to him. I have just been praying for him to just answer my prayer and fix my problem without any action involved on my part. I have made a personal goal to make an effort to find answers and solutions to my problems or trials BEFORE I turn the problem over to the Lord and just say "fix it".


In other news, I hope everyone is excited for the holiday season started tomorrow!! I know I am, Kirby will be sporting his Halloween bow starting tomorrow. I will post a tutorial on how I made them soon!

I will leave with a quote today by Jeffery R. Holland today:

"Don't you quit. You keep walking, you keep trying, there is help and happiness ahead. Some blessings come soon. Some come late. Some don't come until heaven. But for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come. It will be alright in the end. Trust God and believe in Good Things to Come.” 

I will add, always trust in the Lord!
