A goal achieved

On Sunday March 14, 201o I was ordained as a Priest in the Aaronic Priesthood in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I have never felt this good before. I was filled with the Spirit. I have never felt anything that powerful before.

I pray first thing and read scripture everyday. I am going to keep a phrase or verse in my mind to guide me throughout the day. I am mindful of what I put in my mind. My muisc choices are totally opposite of what I used to listen too.

I am now working on what I eat. Lately however I have been an eating machine. Today I will be more mindful of what I ingest.

Michael, my brother, has come around. He is happy to see me and I him. I prayed for him and my prayers were answered. Thank you Heavenly Father.

I am volunteering at a mental health outpatient facility from the state hospital. My duties include socializing with the people. I work Tuesdays and Fridays. This past Tuesday, (yesterday) I prayed for the confidence to reach out more. I also prayed to be more grateful and loving. The Elders were here last week and I was whiny to them. The lesson they gave was about Alma and how he felt burdened with his calling. The Lord helped lift his burdens. I wanted to feel good there. I hadn't a couple of times. It went well. I was very blessed to be a help for them. Thank you Heavenly Father for the blessings and lifting my burdens.

The other day I picked up the garbage along the street.
