Learn from mistakes

Learning From My Mistakes And Finding Help From The Lord

Jesus Christ

By Max Carter

Hi, It's a new blog today finally!! Haha... So this one is about learning from mistakes that you have made or had in your life and how we can finally move on and seek help through prayer to our heavenly father.. 

Here's my mistakes and how I moved on :

"This week hasn't been all that good for me, because my dog was put down on Saturday and I didn't go to church on Sunday and also because I wasn't feeling well. Little did I know that Satan got in and then I did something that I regret big time. So I prayed to my father in Heaven for help but I didn't feel like I got the help and then throughout the week it continued to grow into a bigger problem for me.. 

Today was the last and final straw of it.. I've finally put my foot down and said to myself no more is happening to me ever... even though I can be stubborn it felt the right decision and so I went onto LDS.org and found some scriptures of repentance and forgiving myself for what I have done but most importantly that my father in Heaven can forgive me. And so I prayed for help and understanding of what I'm reading and that I can take on board what it means.. and it actually worked, I felt so much better than what I previously had.. 

For me knowing that I can turn to my heavenly father is a special thing for me because I used to keep it to myself and then it would build up and up and finally like a ticking time bomb it would explode into anger, and I've tried my best not to get angry at people and being in the gospel has helped me become so much more calmer and patient with things. And patience was a big thing for me, I hated being patient so I prayed for help to be able to get a handle on my patience and now so many months down the line I feel that it has worked.

A couple of things that I have learnt today is that "Expecting too much is problematic, and that  change is a process and not an event". And " To call upon the Lord and his representatives will help". And that I should try and give myself goals that I can work towards and complete them.. 

I know that this church is true, I know that Jesus is the living Christ and that our father in heaven does live on, and the second coming will happen whether we want it to or not. I am thankful for the blessings that I receive  from my father in heaven, I am thankful for the Prophet and the apostles that we have on this earth today that can help us and lead us in the right direction. I am thankful for the missionaries that we have, without them I wouldn't know as much as I do now and also the holy spirit, that is an amazing gift to have. I know that the book of Mormon is the true word of god and is another testament comparable to the holy bible.

I leave these things with you in the name of Jesus Christ.Amen.. 

Enjoy this and I hope it can help some of you that are struggling with anything.. Please kneel down and pray in faith to the Lord, I promise you he does listen and he will help you no matter what.. Amen
