"Cult!"

And it's literally me just reading my Book of Mormon and highlighting verses to send to my friends

Tinyyy religious posttttt scroll if you're not comfortable with that <3 ly anyway

One of the huge reasons I LOVE the LDS church is because we're taught to love

Or were supposed to be

It's just so nice to have people in the world who love unconditionally. It's nice to have an example like that

Wait how did y'all learn to pray?? I'm thinking about it and I don't remember learning how to pray?? I just know??

Also since I was a kid I've been categorizing it into 3 things, which is color coded:

Dear Heavenly Father - Thank you for (Always put more things I am thankful for than what I ask for) - Then what I ask of Him (This one is yellow but tumblr doesn't have yellow) - In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

I don't know why I do this?? I just do??

The LDS community on Tumblr is so small 😔

Probably not the intended meaning behind the lyrics (In My Room - Young Rising Sons, which is SOOO good they're my favorite non-theatre artist) but watch me go into why I love this song so much (+ testimony stuff)

Religious posttttt!! Scroll if you're not comfortable with that! Ly anyway <3

Kay so I just wanted to go over these lines specifically

We try so much to talk to God without actually putting forth effort :( we'll say a prayer and go back to what we were doing before and not think of Him at all. I do it too, and it hits me like a truck when I realize I'm doing it, bc omg, look at everything He's done for us, and I can't even turn my mind to Him for a second.

One second can be worth years. And I think that's so special, because genuinely we're not asked much. The bulk of the commandments are just things that will keep us healthy. The rest are about loving. Is that not so important?? Self care and caring about other people? That's quite literally it

Second part of the silly lyric analysis- the MOST important part of repentance is to /never do it again/. The last step is to move on when redeeming yourself of a sin. "Promise him I mean it but I'm still the same"? DUUUUDEEE!!!!!!! OH MY GOODNESS. We do it so much. We make a mistake and go to sacrament and then the next day WE. DO. IT. AGAIN. It can be huge or small but jeez, we do that so much. I'm not saying it's everybody else- I do it too! I'm doing my best, true, but I am NEVER going to get through it if I don't lean on Him.

I can't cleanse myself of my own sins! Why would I try?? Why would I waste what Jesus paid for in the Garden of Gethsemane?? Like?? He bled from every. Pore. I'm in shock still! I've been learning about this since I was a kid! But like!! Oh my stars!!

That is such a gigantic sacrifice!! So of COURSE I'm going to do EVERYTHING I can to repay that! How? I'm gonna freaking make it to the celestial kingdom, my dude, if all I have to do is BENEFIT from that sacrifice?? Why would I not? How COULD I not? That's amazing and 'I Stand All Amazed' (hymn) is literally me anytime I think about this. We're all so loved.

#Repost @bitsycreations ・・・ I cannot express how hearing the new YW theme last night made me feel. I have seen that many, many of you were deeply touched, too. We need to be reminded of these empowering truths, don't we?! As soon as the new theme was announced last night, my sweet daughter asked if I'd be designing it. The church has digital files available ready for you to print! They're lovely and come in different sizes. But I think I'll continue on with this idea in case you'd like an alternative. I'll make it in different sizes, but please let me know if you think of a way it would be helpful for you to use and I'll make it free on my site along with my conference quote printables. #GeneralConference #ldsyouth #sharegoodness #churchofjesuschristoflatterdaysaints https://www.instagram.com/p/B3SO5VoA0lg/?igshid=1g4lin8qs7cio
