He is the One

I feel like I have been missing the spirit lately. I fall asleep while I pray sometimes, even though I'm on my knees. My scripture study every night is way less than it should be. I live for Sundays -- I always have, because Sundays are the best days. But I shouldn't rely on Sunday for my "dose" of the spirit and time to worship my Father in Heaven. I need to do this everyday, with my whole heart. Somehow, there needs to be time for me to do this. I need to make time. I'm struggling to be in the mindset of school because I always want to be doing something church-related: I don't want to leave seminary in the morning, I want to meet with missionaries and my mom everyday, I want to skip my homework and just read the Book of Mormon. I can't do those things just because I want to though. I need to keep the spirit alive in my life, even if I can't be at church or with my Mormon friends. It's my number one priority. Of course school work is up there, but if I try, I'm sure I can even feel the spirit while I'm doing homework. It'll be my next challenge.

On that note, today at my cross country meet, I was walking to the bathroom, and from behind me I heard someone talking about not being able to drink coffee or tea and my first thought was "They are totally Mormon." So I asked if they were Mormon and they said yes, and we talked for a little while about it. It was awesome. Also at the meet, I told a couple of my freshmen friends how I officially converted over the summer. It feels so good to bear my testimony to people, especially non-members. That is one way I can invite the spirit, that's for sure. The spirit testifies so strong in situations like that. It's the easiest way to be a missionary, and it invites people to ask questions, and I love when people ask me questions about it. I would talk about Mormons all day if I could (that goes back to the whole priorities argument). I am a very blessed person to know the truthfulness of the restored gospel. It is the greatest blessing in my life, and I want to share it. With everyone.
