Ep 6...Faith: What To Do When Our Prayers Go Unanswered...Possibly Causing a Faith Crisis
Manage episode 489395012 series 3672399
What do we do when we are not getting answers to our prayers? Specifically revelations or answers regarding doctrinal or organization issues resulting in a possible FAITH CRISIS? In my personal experience, these three things have helped.
In this episode we talk about:
1) Repent daily....every day, the big, the small and everything in between...just repent
2) Keeping the commandments with more diligence & precision will allow the Holy Ghost to be our constant companion
3) This takes humility to accept....sometimes we aren’t ready for the answer. We're not. But this reveals how loving and merciful the Lord is....He will not reveal things to us when He knows we will not understand
4) Shelf Analogy
5) Milk Before Meat
6) Go & Do Challenge: -Pick 1 item related to each shelf & work on it over the next few days; -take something out of shelf one, remember a very spiritual experience, prayer answered, principle that you know to be true, something to remind you of God’s presence & goodness -Shelf 2, what are you working on, can you expand on what you just pulled, just make sure you are studying something -Shelf 3, ask yourself, is there anything you need to put up there for awhile.
7) Happy Thought Mysteries of God are spiritual truths known only by revelation. God reveals His mysteries to those who are obedient to the gospel. Some of God’s mysteries are yet to be revealed. D&C 63.. 23 But unto him that keepeth my commandments I will give the mysteries of my kingdom, -he doesn’t say this lightly
