Unity

The talks in sacrament were about unity. Unity of purpose, unity in the family, unity in the ward, and unity with heaven. The last one seems like it could take a lifetime of work and contemplation to achieve.

How can I with all my doubts and weaknesses still be unified with heaven? How can I lead a life worthy of the divine nature that I am almost absolutely certain?

I’m sitting in the living room in what’s left of my church clothes eating Walgreens fig cookies. There has got to be more than this. There has got to be sanctification in my daily life. It’s just so hard with meltdowns from my kids and pharmacy customers. I should pray more, and read more, and write according to my witness more, and most of all work harder and smarter to build up the Kingdom of God in the here and now.
