“When the focus of our lives is on God’s plan of salvation … and Jesus Christ and His gospel, we can feel joy regardless of what is happening—or not happening—in our lives. Joy comes from and because of Him. He is the source of all joy” (Russell M. Nelson, “Joy and Spiritual Survival,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2016, 82).

Overcoming Spiritual Aimlessness—What Do I Do Now?

"When we are moving toward Jesus Christ, we are never aimless."

☑️Don’t Let Distractions Derail You
-set aside time for Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ each day, especially in the small and simple ways (see Alma 37:6), You will feel the comfort and stability His gospel brings me, even when the world is so unstable.
-President Russell M. Nelson said: “I plead with you to let God prevail in your life. Give Him a fair share of your time. As you do, notice what happens to your positive spiritual momentum.”

☑️Seek Good Influences
-reached out to family and friends and explained to them how aimless and depressed you felt. As you reached out to loved ones who have deep faith and as you prayed to Heavenly Father with just an inkling of spiritual motivation, I felt sustaining support and love.

☑️Keep Striving
-Our personal spirituality can sometimes go in waves—up and down. At times we might feel firm in our faith and the joy of the gospel. But at other times, we might struggle to know where to turn next. We might struggle when challenges come, questions arise, or blessings are delayed, especially when we are doing our best to live the gospel.
-Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles lovingly testified: “‘A perfect brightness of hope,’ born of love of God and all men—that is what we want for you. … Accompanying that bright hope will be the undeniable whisper that God loves you, that Christ is your Advocate, that the gospel is true. Its brightness will remind you that in the gospel there is always—every day, every hour—a new chance, a new life, a new year. What a miracle! What a gift! And because of Christ’s gift, the best things in life are ours if we steadfastly keep believing and keep trying and keep hoping.”

☑️Move toward Jesus Christ
-Young adulthood brings a lot of changes, a lot of uncertainty, and, yes, even unmet expectations at times. But Jesus Christ’s gospel is always certain and always steady. And His and Heavenly Father’s promises are sure as we continually stay on the covenant path. The world can make it so hard at times to keep our focus on Him. But taking any step forward that brings us toward Him is progress. When we are moving toward Christ, we are never aimless—we are moving toward hope, peace, and joy.

Sister Baje week one journey at MTC

"I'd love to tell you my story not with words but with photos na aking nakuha since I got here.
I'm so thankful sa talent na binigay sakin ni Heavenly Father na magagamit ko talaga here and throughout sa aking life.

Sorry for the wait, medyo hectic ang schedule but I'll try my best to write."
