Mosiah 4
The way I pray without sincerity for forgiveness
seems to go in cycles. Right now I am
seeing it in family prayers with children.
It used to be my goal to cry every day during morning scripture study,
to try to cultivate a soft and tender heart.
I think I have forgotten that. I
have been doing a lot better since I read Mel Fish’s book, “Unconditional Love”. That really sunk in.
Am I showing the children how to pray sincerely for
forgiveness?
After yesterday morning’s study I was thinking
about sincere forgiveness throughout the day.
I realized I need to do better at showing the children how to ask for
forgiveness more sincerely. Then after I
got angry in the morning at one of my girls, I had the perfect
opportunity. She was so sweet, and quick
to forgive. I was completely sincere and
even cried a little as I told her that I was sorry. It was a sweet moment, and asking for her
forgiveness disarmed her ornery attitude.
It feels like I am just holding on until I can get
to General Conference next week. I need
it so badly.
