So I am a Sunday school teacher (Yes take it in, I'm so spiritual..... Kidding) and I was able to teach 2 weeks ago, the creation in gospel doctrine, but then this week, I taught gospel principles about the creation. So obviously, Gods trying to tell me something important. So I listened. And this is what I came up with .....I've made myself a victim in this world of no satisfaction, thinking That there is always a flaw in everything and there should be something better always. I feel like I'm the victim and the world is out to get me, Rachel Jackson.........
I think, especially in Provo, as a community of young( and old), we feel conned into this idea that there is always something better because there are so many babes here duh. No but really, everywhere on Instagram, Facebook, MySpace?? And twitter, prove that someone has or is doing something better than you. So naturally, we feel the need to sit there and wine and go on Pinterest and then post on Instagram something bigger and better and pretend we win the "I'm the best" prize. We all do it. But I didn't realize this until recently, going back to my lesson God has been trying to tell me, that God created us and this world, and in his own words he declared that "it was good" and that he was satisfied. He didn't sit there and think "nah that tree is way too big". He knew It was perfect before he created us and the earth. He then created a plan just for us. A plan that can't be put on Pinterest, a plan that can't be topped. It's just simple and perfect.
So if he did all that in 7 days, why are we so quick to change it all in a matter of seconds? Can't we just be content and be grateful for the things/people we do have?
That's the question and challenge of the year.
Super deep right?
