Day 4: Strive for Increased Obedience


Jer 7:23, Matt 7:21, Luke 22:43-44, 1 Ne 4:18, D&C 64: 34
Many times we make mistakes in our lives, but it’s important that we repent, move on & try to be a little better, stronger and more like Him. As we walk in Jesus’ footsteps we must try to be obedient.

Challenge: Only you know what you need to work on. Choose one area today exercising your trust in God to conquer your problems. Each time you feel the penny, remember this is a great time to change & you can.

The Card Files is a story about a wall of card files that contain all of a person’s life experiences, his thoughts, joys, mistakes, challenges and so on. He doesn’t want anyone to see or know what he has and hasn’t done, thus wants to lock it all away. He cries out in shame when imagining Jesus opening and reading every one.
Jesus then signs His name to each card as the poor soul cries, No! He looks at the signature which is written in red. It is Jesus blood on every card. He puts hands on this mans’ shoulders saying, “It is finished.”

There is no lock on our door and Jesus is waiting for us to say to Him, ‘Please come in, help me. I need you.’

Journaling: Is there one thing I could do better just for today? Do I really KNOW that I will receive His help to do his will?
