I have a memory of feeling this very way when I was a young mother in my twenties. But I also remember hearing a RS lesson that really helped me and has ever since.. that There is a Time and Season for All Things.. I must not expect that I can do all that I want to at the same time. I Can Not..and SHOULD NOT try to be Molly Mormon.. Know Why?? Because she is NOT REAL!
Some of you may Gasp at that statement.. But I Believe that Molly Mormon.. is just as imperfect as we ALL ARE! She Stresses.. she feels Over Burdened.. Overwhelmed.. Under Apreciated,...
Ok.. SO maybe there ARE Molly Mormons!! LOL We Just NEVER STOP to Realize that We ARE Her!! We ONLY Look at her OUTWARD Appearences Don't We!!??
Here is the Key... Look at what you ARE Doing that is Good and Right! Focus on the Positive!!
Let me share what I have been going through myself very recently.I have felt dissapointed in myself.. I have not felt the spirit as I have before.. I have felt a Void in my life..and it REALLY made me Stop and Take a GOOD Hard Look at what I was DOING to have the spirit with me. Also in the past year or so I noticed a change in my attitude, and I didn't like it one bit!
I struggled and prayed for months for Father to help me find what what wrong!! PLEASE I'd plead. What is Wrong with me?? Why do I feel this way?? I abstain from all the DON"T Do's.. I don't watch R movies..I don't cuss.. I Don't do this and that.... What has Happened to me!!??
Then I started to look at the things that I WASN'T doing... the things that I needed to do to FEED MY SPIRIT! I WAS STARVING OF THIRST!! I WAS NOT PARTAKING OF THE LIVING WATER! SO I HAD to Add things to what I was lready doing right.. to Feed My Spirit.
WOW What a difference!! My Marraige is better, my relationship with my children is better..my Relationship with Father is Better I FEEL GREAT!! ( I also started the Book of Mormon Challenge here and that has Helped Tremendously!!)
This is from "Stand in Holy Ground"
"As the challenges around us Increase we must Commit More to Qualify for the Companionship of the Holy Ghost..Causal Prayer Won't Be Enough..Reading a Few Verses of Scripture..Won't Be Enough...Doing The Minimum of what The Lord Asks of us Won't Be Enough." Pres Iring.
"This Preparation Must Consist of More than just Casual Membership in the church. You Must Learn to be Guided by Personal Revalation...And the Guidance of The Livivng Prophet, So You Will Not Be Decived." Pres Benson
Watch this Clip.. You Will Be Inspired!! No Doubt!
Satan is the one who wants you to feel the way you do.. Not Our Loving Father in Heaven. Recognize that and Realize Who You Are! A Precious Daughter of a Righteous King! Look Up!! Be Blessed.. Do All that is Needful to Feed You Spirit and Stay Positive!! We are Not Perfect.. but in Christ All Things Are Made Perfect!! DO what You Can.. that is All that is required.. Don't Give Up!!
Love You!!
