From the mouths of babes

I have been thinking a lot about something lately. I think most people are constantly searching for a way to improve themselves, their life, or both. So I guess that has been it. How do I change the things about myself that are less than desirable or bad? How do I get rid of all of my old horrible habits and make new ones? How do I get rid of the baggage that I have accumulated over the course of my life, all of the untruths and lies that I tell myself? I think I got the answer and like most things that seem too difficult or overwhelming, this one was very simple. Yesterday in church a lady was talking about how she loves working in nursery. She said that when she is teaching the little children the lesson, the answer that they give for everything is “Jesus.” Then she went on to say that she knows that no matter what our problem is or what we might be struggling with, the problem can always be solved through Christ. I know that what she said is true. I wish I understood the suffering and sacrifice of my Savior better, and I think that life is teaching me how to apply it. I don’t have to do everything by myself. I don’t have the ability to do everything alone. I try it all the time, but I always find out (the hard way) that I need my Father and I need Christ to help me and to guide me. They help me all the time and in ways I know I don’t even recognize. And I know They would even more if I would learn to ask for help instead of always trying to do it on my own.
