Working Class Hero

today was/is sunday. coming to an end and since a certain someone isn't back from the airport, guess i'll throw down some ideals for you peeps out there that might read this....here goes!

Since its the first sunday of the month, it is fast sunday for the LDS community/church/culture/etc. andi had a tough time makin it through today. i find it interesting that at least every month i fast, but i don't necessarily always have a particular reason to fast except that i donate an offering that goes to the Church welfare/homeless help/Bishop's storehouse/etc. (i dont totally know where it goes it helps someone that needs it). See, one could fast to Heavenly Father for answers to difficult questions in one's life at that time or fast about understanding from a particular experience or ask for guidance or for help through a trial one might be going through at that time as well. however, for me, i dont know if this is good or bad, but i dont always have a particular need from Heavenly Father. i hope that doesnt mean that im stagnant in my eternal progression or anything like that but i feel like sometimes i just like to let God know that i (me) have things that i want to offer Him and my fellow brothers and sisters with nothing in return but a good feeling that i helped someone that day, that one or two got to have meals because i gave up mine and donated. now, dont get me wrong, i struggle to get that full 24hrs. of fasting in and sometimes it ends up only being 15 or 20 hrs. because i might have had a late dinner or realized too late that that midnight snack isnt good and this is something im trying to work on, but honestly, i dunno what else im really gonna that will be relavant to this post so i guess ill leave it here. and seriously, if you do have tough decisions to make or have a really hard trial to get through, PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! remember that you can ALWAYS turn to our Father in Heaven. He will always guide you to where you need to be and help you through that difficult time. i know, i've been there and ill probably be there again soon. ;P trust in Him, im learning to, its tough but if it was easy, everyone can do it!
