I have grown to love Sister Julie Beck. She is very aware of the sisters of the world and always right on target with her talks. This excerpet from her talk in the April Conference again is just what we need. She is aware of how busy our lives have become and our need to choose between good and good. It isn’t her observation of how busy we are, but the soulition that is so important.
“A good woman knows that she does not have enough time, energy, or opportunity to take care of all of the people or do all of the worthy things her heart yearns to do. Life is not calm for most women, and each day seems to require the accomplishment of a million things, most of which are important. A good woman must constantly resist alluring and deceptive messages from many sources telling her that she is entitled to more time away from her responsibilities and that she deserves a life of greater ease and independence. But with personal revelation, she can prioritize correctly and navigate this life confidently.
The ability to qualify for, receive, and act on personal revelation is the single most important skill that can be acquired in this life.” Julie Beck
I pray that we will all strive to seek that revelation. Have a great summer.
