My yoke is easy, and my burden is light

Promptings of the Spirit

Some people call it intuition or good memory or even intelligence, but I think there is much more. Sometimes it’s God talking to us.
I’ve had probably many such moments, but I haven’t recognised and recorded (remembered) them.
It’s good that since young I’ve kept a journal and I can remember some things, but for sure there were much more.
I want to share one that happened just recently.

20180321
It happened at 3:19pm, Wednesday at work.
I had to deliver some documents to my friend Jacque, who works in the same place one floor above me. However I forgot about this.
I usually keep my phone in the pocket of my trousers and have it on vibration and muted, so when someone sends me a message I can feel it vibrating.
Usually during the day at work I don’t pay a lot attention to those vibrations and only after a while I check the phone. The same happened on that day. After lunch I wasn’t paying attention and all of the sudden it came the thought that I have to give docs to Jacque. I decided to send her a message. I looked at the phone and what did I see? She had texted me just 2 min ago!
So...
How do you explain this?
Chance? Intelligence? Intuition?
For me, it was the Holly Ghost.
"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you."
John 14:26

Temples

Life is more than we think. God knows all and wants to share with us more and more of His wisdom. The temple is a special, peaceful place, where we can stop, ponder and receive more of that knowledge. This is not just additional, extra doctrine or place we go when we need. The temple is the "desert" of our dinner. It is the final step of our conversion. It is a sweet experience in our spiritual journey. But just as we have to eat to live: after a dinner there is breakfast, lunch and then another dinner. The same is with the temple, it is not the end. We have to go over and over again. Just like the conversion: we fail, repent and convert over and over again. And we enjoy and learn more and more. We change and experience differently every time we eat from the desert. Very nice video explaining about temples. Reminding us how important they are in our live. Temples Endow Individuals with Power and Seal Families for Eternity Download this video There are so man...

Jesus Christ - The Father

In the book of Ether there is a very special and insightful event telling us many truths about Jesus Christ, us and the plan of salvation. Here are the main points I picked up while reading today: A. Jesus Christ is The Father of all He created the worlds (our planet and all other planets, stars, galaxies and possibly other inhabited planets). He is our Father, because He created Adam and Eve. And all this He did under the instructions of God, who send Him to do it for us. B. Jesus Christ didn’t have body of flesh and blood beforehand. He was the great Jehovah in the Old Testament, leading the Israelites from the cloud. We can suppose that similarly to the brother of Jacob, Moses had seen the finger of God writing down the Ten Commandments on the stone plates. Just like all of us, Jesus Christ had to be born on earth, live, die and through the resurrection receive a glorified, immortal body of flesh and bones - just like God. Then they both appeared to the young boy Jos...

My yoke is easy, and my burden is light

(based on the talk " His Yoke Is Easy and His Burden Is Light " by Sister J. Anette Dennis - First Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, Oct 2022) What comes to your mind when you hear this quote?   Matthew 11:28–30 - It is the best advertisement. The world's ads usually promise you a product which will fix all of your problems. The world and our natural man try to tells us that having difficulties is not normal and we should try to make our life better for ourselves. That there is a pill for any type of pain and our goal is to eliminate all difficulties. Jesus's ads are different - they are real. He doesn't tell you that He will eliminate all your pain and you will be 100% happy, all the time. But rather He tells us that: it is part of God's plan for us to go thru difficulties and the best way to go thru them is to do it in His way. To come unto Him and learn of Him and then we will receive peace, not a temporal, but lasting peace, not like the ...
