Each has to make decisions

this is as it should be always

setting personal/profession goals

these should be compatible

balanced with one long-term

really long-term goal set

year to year to year to year

obedience to our Heavenly Father

doing this through his Son

there will always to be done

second nature without bother

our hearts/souls life’s to sear

knowing from our actions beget

who we are and what we learn

in everything thus translatable

all righteousness in our souls

creating an eternal blaze

a life time goal without revisions!

1. I will live the Gospel Law of Jesus Christ in all aspects of my life moment to moment continuously in my; thoughts, actions and verbalizations.

i. Daily and regular prayer – individually, spouse, family

ii. Read the Scriptures daily – individually, spouse, family

iv. Go to the House of the Lord (Temple) as often as possible – not less than every three months (4 days at a time)

2)   All can prepare to attend the Temple in their own ways.

b. Share the Gospel whenever opportunities arise

i. Mention Church by name in conversations

   1) to see if it ignites interest

   2) If not at least others know who I am and where I stand

3)   Grouping things which can be done together (same errand)

4)   Journal entries – even with not a journal – write things down.

5)   Remember priorities can be changed!

h. Destination

          i. There’s only one real destination – To enter the Celestial Kingdom with my family – (included pets – all pets got to Heaven) – my progenitors and descendants

          ii. Mid-way destinations – going to the Temple if possible – keeping all the Commandments – peace within – happiness and joy in knowing you’re doing Father’s will
