Becoming A Lifetime Reader

Becoming a lifetime reader is very important. Not only for fun but also to discover new ideas that are needed for us to face " life".

In our way, we are experiencing unexpected momentous wherein we struggled. We are looking for some counsel, comfort, answers to anyone but sometimes the persons that we expect to help us they fail for they aren't perfect. I testify that through reading books especially the scriptures; The Bible, Doctrines, and Covenants, The Book of Mormon, etc. we can find what we are looking for, you can understand what you don't, you can find comfort, counsel, and help. Through reading ( especially good books ) you can invite the spirit to nourish your heart, mind and so on with your soul. Through reading, you can understand more about your life.

You will appreciate the essence of reading if you give attention. I believe that " reading provides ways to live ".

Ghajini: Reflection

We really cannot predict what will happen in our lives the next day. If you are at the upper part of the wheel you cannot say that you'll stagnantly stay there because wheels turn and that' s the best description of life. Always put in your mind that there are always two sides of a coin it emphasizes that all things under the sun have always an opposition, It's between the bad and the good. But after all, God gave us the freedom to choose and gave us the intelligence to decide what are the right things to do. And that is the movie " Ghajini " all about. You will learn to the story that there are decisions that we know it's the right thing to do but as we move on we'll realize that we've thrown a gas into something that is burning. On the other side, you can appreciate how the decision will come out naturally in our minds to do good things. The character of Aamhir Khan " Sanjay "tickled my heart. He was a kind of a man who bo...

Repentance through Christ : Isaiah 53

I have experienced spiritual anguish, this is because of procrastinating the will of the Lord through mundane activities. By reading the talk of President Ezra Taft Benson this line really pricked my heart “Give me a young man who has kept himself morally clean and has faithfully attended his Church meetings.” Regret and guilt are inside me, if only I focused on the things that would benefit my soul and that would make my Father in Heaven happy, If only I pay attention to the whisperings of the Holy Spirit, if only I tried my very best to keep the commandments that the church has taught me maybe now I am already halfway of my mission. I can still remember how our branch president gave me probationary, I felt like I am just a shadow at the corner I cannot participate in the sacrament. I cannot change his decision, I need to face the consequences of my actions, I need to undergo the process of repentance, this way I will have a c...

See the Good

I believe in prophets and leaders and revelations they received, but sometimes I doubted them not only the leaders of higher ranking but also local leaders of the church. This doubt has led me not to trust some leaders of the church and at some point, it had affected me in doing my responsibilities as a member such as paying my tithes, fulfilling my callings, and my personal progress. It’s disappointing when you see leaders who are misled by their personal desire. Sometimes I even doubted if our church is a true church of Jesus Christ because of them. I talk to one of my classmates in the institute about it and she said sometimes it is easier to see mistakes than good works. I sometimes tell people what she said, and I never told it to myself, hearing from a friend those words have galled me in a positive way, it is so strong. It came in my mind that we are not perfect, even the prophet is still only a human and it is ...
