"The past is behind, learn from it.
The Future is ahead, prepare for it.
The present is here, live it,
Words in this picture from
President Thomas Spencer. Monson
(President for The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints.
There is a saying from a friend of mine his name is President Jack R.Christianson who is the Mission President for the Western New York Rochester Mission I am curently serving in, for The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints. I like in what he said it goes like this " It doesn't matter how many mistakes you have made in the past, it doesn't matter if some of those mistakes our more worse then others, What matter is that we need to move forward because the Future is always SPOTLESS (clean)". That is so true, yes we all have or will make mistakes in this life. We can all try to be perfect but that wont happen because we all fall short but if we rely on God and apply Christlike Atributes (meaning by following Jesus Christ example when he was here on Earth), and apply the Atonement that Jesus Christ did for us. Then we will truly be happy. Here is some parts of Christlike Atributes, Love everyone including your enemy or those you don't like, offer service to others wether if you see somebody who has lots of grocerys trying to put it in the car offer them a hand or arm :). Being a friend to somebody at school who was bullied even if you two don't know eachother. So there is some examples. We need to do the best we can to be the person that God would hope for us to be and always wiling to do what is right even if you stand out in the crowd (meaning if some people think your weird). Its good to be different because each of us, have special talents that we can use for good or for bad. But if we use the talents for good we can influence and lift others up when they are down. Look Towards The Future because it will always be spotless and evrytime when all of us wake up the next day or morning kneel down by your bed and offer thanks to God for allowing him to let you be here on Earth another day. I promise you, if you do this you can feel peace and feel much happier. God does Listen even if we think he doesn't. God does Answers to us wether we know how to pray or not but if were willing to take that small amount of time out of our busy lives to show our gratitude for the blessings he has given us we will always be proteced and much happier people. Look Towards The Future and don't dwell (looking back) into the past. Look Towards The Future Because it will always be SPOTLESS.
