IT’S NOW OR NEVER: HOW MUCH LONGER DO I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE PLANETS TO ALIGN?

IT’S NOW OR NEVER: HOW MUCH LONGER DO I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE PLANETS TO ALIGN? Okay, here is another “there are two types of people in the world” observation: There are those who are waiting for life to happen, and there are those who make life happen. In LDS culture, I hear people say “If it’s God’s will, it will happen” or “God will let me know if I need to do anything.” Then they are frustrated when their life isn’t what they think it should be. I wonder when this amazing gift of personal revelation and inspiration became an excuse for not being active in one’s life? I think God wants us to be practicing the qualities of Godhood now, the greatest of these being the power to create extraordinary life, beginning with our own. Maybe we can cause the planets to align.
