I have been sick for the past few days. It has been very difficult for me to stay positive and not to give into temptation. I have been so triggered. It has been hard for me to stay focused, to have clear thoughts.
Today I have been so sick of being sick. So sick of being weak. Sick of being tempted. I know that’s a bad place for me to be, but a hard one to get myself out of. I know I need the Lord’s help.
I watched mormon messages and came across the listed below. I have watched it before. It is truly amazing.
I know today I am weak in the heart, but I know the Lord is watching out for me. That I will be okay. Satan is attacking. I forgot my purpose and my identify today. I need to let the Lord help me. I need to be humble and teachable.
Please Lord, Forgive me for being negative and not have pure thoughts.
Help me have the faith. Help to not feel a lone.
Bless me to get nourished physical and spiritually.
I can identify with this video today as I fly. I had the thought as I was flying earlier "I'm ready to go, if need be." It is a great feeling! It's also a very fragile one; easily derailed. It's worth the constant striving! May the Lord bless you, Rachel, for your efforts.
