Nick can only tell me so many time how I keep disappointing him with my careless regard for money. He is getting to the end of his rope. And he and the Lord are pushing me to make the right money choices. It is my job to partake of the blessings our family will recieve when I decide to CTR.
I know I will be severely challenged. I have been for many years. I NEED to do this, my marriage is in danger of failing if I can't get it together. I don't want to lose my family. They are my everything. Brother Knecht hit me with a light bulb moment today as we discussed D&C 3:1-19. We discussed how Joseph Smith lost the 116 pages of the Book of Mormon. He was rebuked by the Lord and that was it. He never did anything like it again. I NEED to follow that example. I have been rebuked, many times, and I need to make the choice to change it. It is MY choice. I need to make it and depend on the Lord to help me continue to choose correctly. And to lean on my husband to help me stay the course. Use all the faculties I have at my disposal.
In Relief Society I heard a great quote and I'm going to put it up on my fridge, to help me remember.
"WELL MANAGED FAMILIES DON'T PAY INTEREST, THEY EARN IT."
I loved that.
