Man, where have I been?
I totally abandoned this blog last year after General Conference. It was a hectic time! We had just moved to a new city, the pandemic hit, and I was in the thick of being a new mom and figuring out how to keep a human being alive.
I had big plans for this blog last year and it all just kind of fell into the garbage. I want to try harder this year so I thought I'd start off by sharing some thoughts I have with this year's Come, Follow Me study. I watch the YouTube videos from the Don't Miss This channel. I love watching Emily and David teach. I learn really well in a class setting like seminary or institute and since they're both religious teachers, it's perfect for me! I love it. They also take the audio from their YouTube videos and put it on a Podcast if that's easier for you than watching something.
I'm really late to the game this year. I'm so behind in my studies but it's okay. I try to do a little bit each day. I try to read the sections before watching the videos and then I can truly just journal alongside their lesson. I have also really enjoyed listening to the Podcast, Follow Him. I love that they bring on guests to talk about church history. It kind of gives you a different perspective of that time period and it's a different type of lesson assistant like Don't Miss This.
In section 1, after watching the video with David and Emily, I wrote down a thought that I wanted to share with all of you. In the video, they talk about people carrying revelations around in their pockets. They would study them, ponder them and pray to be able to apply them in their lives, before these were made into a book. And the thought occurred to me... do I carry revelations in my pocket? Do I carry my revelations with me wherever I go? Or do I just leave them in my journal never to be read again?
So I challenge you to think about that. What things does God tell you that you should carry with you? Try it.
