God loves us...

So he sent his son, Jesus Christ to sacrifice his life to atone for our sins. We live with such simplicity that we forget the pain the they both went through. We are troubled by the "little things" in our lives. I am reminded constantly how true this is. My main mistrust is money and bill payment. I worry to excess on something I can't control. I've finally decided that it's up to God what I can do. It is hard to maintain the calm needed to trust God that things will work out. I'm finding, however, that it's getting a bit easier to hand the burden over to him. Maybe because the bills are coming down. Maybe it's because I robbed from Peter to pay Paul and Peter is getting refunded. All I know is this is my vice or weakness. It doesn't help much that I love to spend money. I've got to control my efforts a little more. 

I say all this to show how quickly it can grow. Note how I was able to link my problems to each other and also knowing the solutions. Heavenly Father has made me aware of this problem. It's up to me to do what I can and hand the rest to him. He is ready to take up our burdens and keep us afloat. All we do is obey his commandments and live righteously. He does the rest. We are to share our love, show charity, help others, feed the poor and help the helpless. That's just a few things we need to do. We need to gain knowledge, share this knowledge with others and also to show how we gained the knowledge by sharing our abilities. 

           God allows us opportunities to learn and grow. He loves us unconditionally. He knows all our weaknesses and fallacies. He knows who can help us and who we can help. It's up to us to do something. Show our self worth and to know that we are not worthless. Learning how to handle the adversity in our lives teaches us empathy and compassion. Heavenly Father is very patient. We have no worries if we live righteously. We can be a good example to those around us. Just do it...
