Another Quote...

This is from one of the leaders of my church, Elder Richard G. Scott. He said,

"Heavenly Father has invited you to express your needs, hopes and desires unto Him. That should not be done in a spirit of negotiation, but rather as a willingness to obey His will no matter what direction that takes. His invitation, "Ask and ye shall receive does not assure that you will get what you want. It does guarantee that, if worthy, you will get what you need, as judged by a Father that loves you perfectly, who wants you eternal happiness even more than you do."

This is a great statement and something that I wish I could more fully apply to my life. Looks like I need to work on this. I would love to negotiate my situation, surely He could take away this tumor and many of my challenges. However, He feels that I need to go through this and although I don't understand it, I need to develop greater faith in understanding His will for me.

So that's my quote to share with you for the week...
