i was reading in helaman yesterday, and one thing that struck me was that nephi, the prophet of the time, is praised and blessed for his "unwearyingness." as a twentysomething college student, i feel like i am in a constant state of fatigue, physically, mentally, emotionally, whatever. it's easy to get tired of the same routine or of the woes and frustrations of dating or of everything not falling together exactly as i think it should. but this isn't the way i should be approaching my life. yeah, you get tired sometimes. but this unwearyingness is really the model i should look to in every aspect--gospel living, social life, school endeavors, important goals.
just a thought :)
This is something I've been thinking about all weekend. It's hard to keep having hope, even though it's hard.
