While I was reading my scriptures with my babies yesterday I happened to read a chapter that was perfect for me. Don’t you love how the scriptures just speak to you personally? Man, the gospel is so true!
I read in Luke 6:30, 34,35: “Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of them that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest; for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the devil.”
I realized the reason why I feel pooped sometimes is because I’m not perfect. I believe God is constantly serving others without feeling burnt out because he is that perfect! So when I do feel burnt out, I need to remember that the experience is making me only stronger and more Christ-like, thus a step closer to perfection. And that I need to be that much more selfless.
Life really is so beautiful. Isn’t it? 🙂
So true. Can I have $100?
