Life has been a haze the past few... several months as I'm sure you've guessed if you've been following this blog. Events have been sneaking up on me a lot. With regards to this post, the most notable sneak-up has been managed by General Conference.
Yup! Only three weeks until we get another chance to hope for revelation regarding Mother. I confess, that good ol' guilt makes me wonder if the sacrifices I've scraped together in the past five months have been sufficient, if my faith and my hope have been enough. On the other hand, I'm not sure that I have that much to worry about. My fasts haven't been picture perfect by the book but I've done what I've could. I've also made many, many other sacrifices in that time, both for Mother and others of Her children. I believe that counts for something. Perhaps it counts for a great deal. I don't know. I don't know, but I hope and I have faith.
Regardless of guilty feelings and fears of inadequacies, the time is here to ramp up preparations, to increase in hope and faith, and the be strong in case the road continues on. It likely will, truth be told. This may not be the time for the Church or world as a whole (but I hope it is!) However, it's definitely time for me. It's possibly time for you. It is time to prepare a way for the Mother to approach, to come down out of the wilderness and into my heart.
Or perhaps it is time to prepare myself to go up into the wilderness and into Her heart.
The way must be prepared. How will you prepare yourself?

Thank you for wanting to leave me a message. I hope you've found something I've said edifying, and you'll extend the same to me. Please be positive, I'm not here to argue, but rather to just have a place to write things that I find spiritually uplifting, or share my own ponderings on matters of faith. Thank you.
