getting ready for a Sunday afternoon stroll
No. 14: I am thankful for wise counsel from our church leaders. Last night, Mike and I (and Elliot, too) attended the adult meeting of our Stake Conference. Our Stake President told us about a time when he was on a diet. He was feeling overwhelmed by the task until he realized that all he had to do was eat right that day. He didn't need to worry about tomorrow or next week. If he had the same determination to eat right today, everyday, then eventually he would meet his goal. He then applied this to living the gospel. All we need to do is live right today, and take it one day at a time. Doesn't that make sense? Why hadn't I thought of that before? So now I have a new motto: Live Right Today. What do you think?
