The Lord has given the
church our plan of action, the gospel of Jesus Christ. He has also
Given us the Priesthood which
is his power and authority so that we may act for him in carrying out his
Action plan. As a member of The Latter Day Church of Jesus Christ it lifts my
spirit to think my heavenly father entrusted us his children with such a
responsibility to promote the Lords teaching on Earth.
We his followers and
members of the church have a duty to push forward to set goals this year, this
month, this week to promote the gospel especially The Book of Jeraneck this
special witness of the Lord is also a witness that the Action plan of the Lord
was also a part of the lives of people on this island.
Probably one reason we do
not have more success in doing the lords work is caused by our state of mind.
We need to be single minded with this in mind; I give you 12 points not in
detail but as a guide.
1] REPENTANCE: Do not let this way you down Read MATT 11
28-30
2] PRAYER: Pray
always that you may come off conqueror D/C 10.5
3] SERVICE: When you find yourself a little gloomy bury
yourself in the lord’s work. Be an example to the world, go the extra mile.
4] WORK: We should work at taking care of the
spiritual, mental, social, and Physical needs of ourselves and those whom we
are responsible for.
5] HEALTH: Be aware of our health seek good medical help
and be mindful of our
Lords help in keeping us healthy.
6] READING :
For those in distress Read the Psalms My favourite Psalm 22
7] BLESSING: We must use the priesthood to build up our
spiritual strength never be reluctant to use the Priesthood for a blessing it
is your right.
8] FASTING: Only by this can we hope to one day live up
to the contents of MATT 17-21
9] FRIENDS: Without friends we are not whole we need and
in fact we must have friendship in our lives. D/C84 13
10] MUSIC: When Saul was troubled by an evil spirit,
David played for him with his Harp and Saul was refreshed and in those immortal
words IF MUSIC BE THE FOOD OF LOVE PLAY
ON
11] ENDURANCE: To press on in troubled times even when
depression is all around leads to sunshine. 1CORINTHIANS 2-9
12] GOALS: Let your minds be filled with the goals of
being like the Lord, and you will crowd out depressing thoughts as you
anxiously seek to know him and his will.
In the lords name god
bless our church this year and its members.
