Once again not a ton of time today but I want to talk to you about something that I think is very important. I sat in a lesson on Sunday that was about the natural man. Every commandment that has been given to us is given to teach us to control our bodies! Obveous ones like Chastity and the Word of Wisdom which keep us from addiction and other bad things as we sacrifice pleasure and instant gratification until we have erned them! then smaller things like Tithing (sacrificing money), Sabath day (sacrifice our weekend), even Fasting (sacrificing Food). As we sacrifice the things of the world we lean to control this body and become as the scriptures say "a saint". This is what we need to strive for! Sacrifice what we must so that we can learn to control our natural man and not have him control us!
This gospel is meant to help us make that and that is why it is so great (among other things!). I hope you all can take something from this and apply it somewhere in your life! I love you all This gospel is true!
Love Kevin
