She was coming home from school angry, and I knew why. I had received multiple promptings that she needed to transfer schools.But... This was my strong-willed child.I tilt back my head and let out a huge sigh. I know that if I make her transfer, it will not go well.It has to be her decision. If I'm being honest, she gets some of that from me. If I decide I should do something, I'm 100% all-in. But tell me to do something I don't believe in, and good luck-because it's not going to happen. I think there's some of that in most of us. That's probably why we chose to be here. We decided it was a good plan. Heavenly Father helped us get to that decision. Turns out, He's pretty good at that. So next time you have a child or a friend ready to make a tough decision... or you see someone headed the wrong way, help them the way heaven does. Help them see the right decision. In this week's episode, I walk through the 5 steps the Lord took to do just that for some of his children who had been misled. And, by the way, it works. My daughter came up to me a few weeks later and said," Mom, I want to transfer to that school." And guess what? It was one of the best decisions SHE ever made. This can be used along with your study of Come Follow Me or simply to gain insight on how the scriptures help us in real, actual life! The principles can also be used to teach kids, teens, or adults.

Losing someone you love is one of the hardest trials you could ever walk through. It's also one no one can avoid. I often tell people it's my least favorite part of growing up. There have been many days I thought my heart would literally disintegrate into a million pieces - just worrying that someone was going to die. Did you know that grieving the loss of ones we love is actually keeping a commandment? And like all commandments,Heavenly Father ALWAYS PROVIDES A WAYfor us to do what He asked us to do. In this week's episode, I list the 4 steps we can take to bring more heavenly power and peace to us when we face loss. Check it out, and please share it if you know someone going through loss. 💞

When the Lord asks you to do things that seem super big, how do you rely on Him?
