"Love is making space in your life for someone else..." (What Shall We Do?, Neill F. Marriott, General Conference, April 2016) I love this! It's true. We just need to make some room in our life for someone to be and that's it. We don't need to complete a list of specific tasks or meet a set of requirements. We just need to let others into our lives.
Christ is a fabulous example of letting others be in your life. He made a habit out of this and being their for others people to let them into his. I think that's a big key to receiving help from the Savior and being more like him - we need to let Him in.

Pioneer Day
I read this article today. It's President Monson telling us about Pioneers - who they are and what it means to be a true pioneer.
I especially like these lines.
"The path of a pioneer is not easy, but we follow in the footsteps of the ultimate Pioneer—even the Savior—who went before, showing us the way to follow.
“Come, follow me,” He invited.
“I am the way, the truth, and the life,” He declared.
“Come unto me,” He called."
As usual, Christ is the perfect example. We get to choose whether we will follow Him or not. It might not be easy. It will require sacrifice. I know we can be pioneers today. We have an opportunity to build Zion. We have a chance to be the best we can be.

A Powerful Voice.
I watched this today and thought of Christ. It's called A Powerful Voice: LDS Women Speak Out. I know He loves the women of the church. We have a work to do. I know He will help us to accomplish so many things if we'll step out of our comfort zones and put in the effort.

Follow Him
Christ asks us to follow Him. I noticed this video stated that we follow those we can trust. I asked myself if Christ is someone I can trust. I know that I can and I do. I trust Him completely. He has proven to be trustworthy. Now I just need to set aside my personal issues and faults so I can follow Him even closer.

Hallelujah Chorus
I think it's great this was put together. What a great project. I love what we're able to do with technology.
Hallelujah
This is a new one for Easter that I watched last night. It's a new favorite.
This reminded me that I'll be able to see Layne again. I'm grateful for our Heavenly Father's plan.

Doing Better
I've been trying to get back into doing this. I did this for the first 21 days of the year. It's odd how I can do something for that many days and not have it be a habit. At least that's what I've heard. If a person does something twenty-one times in a row it will become a habit. Well, it didn't work for me. I've been doing some other things to focus on Christ each day. But, it's not a habit yet. I need to get back to trying. I have some days I haven't done anything at all about it. So, here's to a new start.
I listened to this today. It's always a favorite. I gain each time I listen. I still feel the Spirit each time I hear the message. I know Christ is willing to walk with us. I need that right now.
This is called 'His Grace is Sufficient'. It's given by Brad Wilcox and was recorded at a BYU Devotional in July of 2011. It might have already shared this - but, that's okay. Some of the best stuff is worth repeating.
