words of mormon 1: 1 - 18
think about mormon's willingness to follow spiritual promptings. how can our willingness to follow spiritual promptings influence our lives? how can this willingness influence the lives of others?
--> lately i have had my testimony confirmed multiple times that we are sent to be the answers to other people's prayers. Heavenly Father answers prayers through us. He helps other people through us. We are literally His hands.
on a personal note, i am the happiest when i am following the promptings of the spirit. i will often have thoughts that i don't understand, or think twice about, but when i follow through, i usually find out the reason for that thought later. a prompting can be as large as an audible voice (i've never had that...) or as small as a general impression or feeling, like "i should ____". i know a lot of people struggle with the idea of "how can i know if this is the spirit or if it's my own thoughts?" to that i echo what i heard in general conference years ago - if we are living right, any good thought is a thought from the spirit.
