Not What We Want

I know I have been talking about this plane crash the past few days, but it is what is on my mind. When I started working for reservations, I knew that someday there might be the possibility that I would deal with a crash. It is not something I wanted to do. It was very stressful, very emotional, and it wears on me everyday. But I did it. I can dwell up on it, look at all the negative aspects of it or I can move forward, do the best I can, make the best of it, and think about those that I am helping.

Life is that way. Heavenly Father did not send us to earth for a vacation. We are here to progress, face the challenges placed before us, and make the best from what we are given. Think about what the earth would be like if he said, I just did not want to complete that part. Or I just don't like keeping the sun in place it is too hard. Where would we be?

So, what am I getting at? It is better to just make the best of what we have. I know we don't like to work, do homework, clean our rooms, mow lawns, wash dishes and clothes, brush our teeth, and so on and so forth. But, the Lord sent us here with a purpose. We are to prove ourselves. If he cannot trust us to carry out the day to day responsibilities we have here, how can he entrust us with kingdoms. Think about it. Pray for strength to do it, pray for the knowlegde and guidance of how to do it. Don't dwell on the negative, but the positive. Find joy in what you do and it will make it all easier.
