Priorities

Lehi was commanded to leave and go into the wilderness. He did so taking only his family and a few provisions. Lehi was faithful enough to trust the spirit. Trust that things were going to be ok. He had a  knowledge that God would provide. 

In those little moments are our priorities such that we are willing to trust our Heavenly Father? It all comes down to what are we willing to do and say. Is our faith strong enough to leave home? Is family the only thing that matters? 

Turning our hearts from the world and toward heaven requires simple steps that navigate us home. Prayer, Scripture study, building strong family relationships,  and learning that the stuff around us really is no more than that. Putting our priorities in order brings us closer to obtaining what really matters. 

The gospel of Jesus Christ allows us to put into our lives a plan that brings happiness. Living within the gospel standard provides for peace and harmony. Ultimately these priority shifts build a roadmap that guide the humble and bless the meek and lowly to feel the spirit working in their lives.
