1.23.15

From: Me The Lord knows us, knows our potential, and knows the desires of our hearts. On those days when you feel like you are falling behind, even after you have given it all you've got, carry in your heart and your mind this note from Him who understands: "And see that all...things are done in wisdom and order; for it is not requisite that a man should run faster than he has strength" (Mosiah 4:27). Pres. Joseph F. Smith taught these comforting words: "God does not judge men as we do, nor look upon them in the same light we do. He knows our imperfections, all the causes, the 'whys and wherefores' are made manifest unto Him. He judges us by our acts and intents of our hearts. His judgements will be true, just and righteous. Ours are obscured by the imperfections of man." And that goes double for judging ourselves. I know I'm at least twice as hard on myself than on anyone I come across. I need to remember, I'm doing better than I think I am. 2015/01/24 01:11:03AM
