To make the change, the first task:
1.Go and purge your homeOf every bottle and flask
2.Replace them with hope
3.And then, for new friendships, ask
Studying the gospel is like- Catching a double rainbow; Each drop of wisdom reflects light- Hinting there is more to see and know!

Who Are You?
If all your roles were stripped away
Beneath it all, "Who are you?"
Life happens and at the end of the day
You are God's, who sees right through!
To the heart of what you do
Pray Always Linked Day and Night
Awake for God's counsel in prayer
And for new strength to do so
Before you sleep return and share
Just how you felt and did grow
Morning and evening prayers can link
So we can make the most of each day
God knows how we feel and think
And all the way things stand in our way
The creator of Heaven and Earth
As the Father of us all
Would to help us create each day
That we answer to our call

Pure Communication
Does there exist a place
Where two can talk in peace
Honestly, face to face
So the quarrel can cease?
The surest place on earth
Is inside God's holy temple.
The veil parts, here, weve worth!
And our problems seem.so simple!
Here the "world" can slip away
It's a refuge from the storm
In unity we can pray
For the sick, the lost , the worn
History Judged
How do you judge history
That is already passed?
Were you there, in the story?
Things have changed since the past!
When there's so much that could....
In hindsight, possible....
May you look for the good
And for each miracle!!
And knowing history is unkind
Watch your deeds and your words
That what's best in you, men will find
Inspite of all your worst!
Endure Those Endless Steps!
Rodney, I love what you said. It's inspiring...
It takes endless steps
To get where you need to be
Some may be backwards
But have faith and keep going
Believe in eventually

Heartfelt Prayer
When you cant find words to say
Listen more while you pray
Feel for His holy presence
And His peace in the silence
Then examine your heart
Seek for gratitude, to start
Then, speak- what troubles it so
And feel His Spirit within flow
With impressions in tow
Later through words you'll find, you'll know
Keep this prayer always in your heart
Read His words and trust He will impart
Perhaps from what someone says
Or a voice in your head ...that is His!
Make a record of the time and place
Let it fill your mind and heart with thanks

Please know you will not change my mind!
Though your high-minded judgment is meant to alarm,
My testimony is firm, you will find!
Investing in the Future
I can see you're not invested
And I must think of my future
My limits have been tested
I will not respond to pressure
For change, you complain and say I'm mad
You've been found wanting when I measure
All the experiences we've had
All you think of is you. Your pain and your pleasure!
So, here I firmly stand
No longer in your way
It's up to you where you land
Sober or not, I say!

Heavenly Father's Plan
Heavenly Father presented His grand plan
And asked of all " Whom shall I send?"
Jesus! He would be the Savior of all man!
So, Satan rebelled along with 1/3 in the end
And vowed we'd regret free agency, then
Without bodies, they could entice us instead
And work to be destructive voices in our heads
Fill your mind with good things of Light
That evil darkness not enter in
Treasure God's words with all your might
And repent. Or sin, will wear you thin
Keep your covenants. Keep God's laws in sight
Go! Spread goodness everywhere!
And teach how much God does care!
That, when you pray, He is there!
Trust in mercy, justice, truth and Light.
Read God's word and pray both day and night
Elder Bednar teaches so we can learn from reading the book of Abraham the true doctrine of the war in Heaven when Lucifer rebelled because he was not chosen. He wanted to "one up" God's plan to be picked. He would take away free agency! He vowed to make us all suffer because he was not chosen. He would make us regret making choices! Trust in God's laws and in our Savior. Trust in mercy, justice, truth and Light. Read God's word and pray both day and night.

It is near to insanity, it's like the mind wants to keep track of evey piece- as in these experiences, there are a series of events that damage you. While you are keeping track, you replay all the emotions of being a victim, but also layer on top- anger, if only, why me? Who would do that? And, in pain, you "share", trying to dump these crazed mind feelings. It really is eroding the mind, carving a space for this process again and again.
Recall it all. Write it down. Let your mind be relieved of trying to recall it all. Get help. Get a blessing. Get a new focus. Write your testimony . Write all your blessings. Put energy into being a strong spiritual child of God. Connect to who you truly are and not to the role of a victim.
Then, the memories become just memories without layers of pain and emotion tied to them. You are safe, wrapped in love of Jesus. You are at peace and have empathy to help others.

The mother, with the baby, had been outside getting a snack out of their vehicle and saw him ram twice into the church. She alerted those inside it was not an accident. She looked in front of her and her five year-old was there. 3 more were missing. She ran for safety and her husband ran to get the others. But, ended up miraculously helping a man shot... watch the video.

Someone has said that if Christians really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Did you know that during WWII there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every day at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England , its people and peace? There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in South Korea in behalf of the people in North Korea. Hearing of this touched my heart. ❤️

Condescension From a Pre-Mortal Estate
Being enclosed with the physical
Having left our pre-mortal estate above
Our condesecension was uncomfortable
As we'd have to learn to rely on God's love
Knowing we'd forget God and everything
In exchange for the family we would gain
Still we knew that until we became mortal
We'd not fully understand joy and pain
Learning from Mistakes
Give yourself some credit
When you're feeling bad
It's your chance to repent,
Grow, and not be sad
Pain of Sin and Pride
Pain is a good sign
Desire for a better life
With God realign
Then, sin's burden becomes light
Resources
There are so many feeling passed up by love
They look for any resource for healing, thereof
They suffer in pain from this emptiness
How they will gain from our source of happiness!
God's Perfect Plan- The Only Plan
Satan interjected himself above God's plan
For show, he rejected FREE agency of man
Challenging, he opposed God with open hostility
Pride grew and 1/3 arrose trusting in his ability
War should not, shall not exist ever in Heaven!
The rebellious were cast out- even driven!
To gain a body and progress, HOW we all rejoiced!
Jesus was chosen to execute God's plan
Perfectly to live and to atone for every man
Through trial and error we would learn who we truly are
Repenting as needed looking to our Savior never far

Him, of Christ, in every page he turned!

A Thirst For Sobriety
Deep down I've a thirst
For I don't know what
A pain that's the worst
For a cure I must hunt
------ -------
The more that I drink
It sinks into ink
Black enough to kill
It shallows my will
The first drink is fun
But I am not done
I'll toast to my friends
A night without end
I can't drink enough
This makes things so tough
The guilt, disappointment
Go numb.Last laugh's enjoyment
-------------
Was that you for the New Year celebration?
Never before are drinks so available!
Overcome. There's a sobering education
Let go. Let God! And be fallible!
The path is 12 segments long
Right all who you have wronged
Take time to surrender
It's the way to be strong
Thirst, For your sobriety
Christ can flood your soul with peace
No more baffling cunning slips
Let love in and dignity increase

Tune out what the world is saying
Keep the Lord in your head

This experiment
To figure things out
Is now different
You've innocents about
Those tiny souls
Depend on you
For how to grow
They're watching, too
No Law Against Lying
There is no law
Against the lying
Stringing me on
Inside, who's crying?
Perhaps your guilt
And my confusion
Baffling, cunning
Lonely, exclusion
Near Death Experience a Message for the World
Prayer is for all
This message is mine
Continuously
The Lord's real, you'll find
How cool that President Holland had a near death experience!

Pray continuously
Testify more
I Stepped into Crazy
I stepped into crazy
And nothing makes sense
Your story's so hazy
The details...nonsense
This is your 8th chance
Do I cry or do I scream?
In a turmoil dance,
I still hope, as you more scheme
You failed to show up
Your excuses came late
I know your world's tough
But each time as I wait
I imagine a worse fate
Then all the ups grip my mind
A break up- a beat up- a lock up
A shake up or you gave and are covered up
Please wake up and sober up
Final sobriety to find
There's No Pretending at Death
Who would pretend
And lie to their dying breath?
When honesty
Is how to face inevitable death
President Holland mentioned Joseph Smith and Hyrum staying true to their testimonies as they were facing death.
I know of one comment in a youtube video accused Holland of being a fake. When you're dying, lying doesn't benefit anyone. President Holland really was an Apostle. No doubts- at all.

A Two Edged Sword
The word of the Lord is a two-edged sword
So sharp as to know who we truly are
For He can cut through all our thoughts and motives
And penetrate deeply unto the heart ❤️
Love Continues
Love continues
Families endure
Heaven is real
Of this I am sure
How cool that President Holland had a near death experience!
