Test

I have an idea for a test. Having been familiarized with the story of Enos, I previously decided that if one approached Heavenly Father in a like manner could recieve a full remission of his sins. This easter, that became more important. I realize that in order to achieve the desires of my heart I must first repent fully, and so my test is to find a way, fasting and prayer has been already given to increase the "priority" someone called it prayer on steriods. I am going to use a day during spring break to pray all day if possible.

Note: previously, when I tried to pray sincerely to Heavenly Father by locking myself in the bathroom, and the children still banged on the door, requesting admittance. And, I simply cannot deny the wishes of my children and hypocritally beg my father in Heaven for a thing. So, I probably need to inform them of my design. I thought of the temple as a place of refuge and bedtime, outside seems pretty solitary, only I am ill and it is cold at night.

But, as I consider doing this, I am always encouraged! I remember a few other situations when alone I was able to pray sincerely and communicate with Heaven and I had absolutely no doubt of things regardless of how true they logically seemed like not going on a mission when I was already preparing to do so, and it was not even my intent to find out if I SHOULD  go. Another time, I was in a refridgerated produce locker at pizza hut when I instantly thought, I'd really like to see this one aquaintance again, whom I figured that I would never see again. When I exited, I was asked if I would like anything from another resturaunt in Corinth, MS that we were doing a food exchange with, my old friend worked there. A simple thing, yeah. Easy to dismiss, but excitely I told LeAnne about the whole thing and the rest is history.
