DAY 132 --- Making Changes, Starting to Build a Ship

It is time to turn the corner in our lives.  In four months we shall be ready to go and serve the Lord.  Just four months!  So, while I have been thinking about that, Bonnie brings up the suggestion that we compare it to Nephi and his brothers in building a ship.  We don't know how to do it, but it is something that Father wants us to do.  Don't know why, or how, but we shall pursue it.

I need to go to the mountains and ask where to find the ore, and get directions from Father.  I was directed today to do some things that have needed to be done for many days/months.  So as I go to work, I am going to do so.

Four months is not too much and we need to lengthen our stride in preparing, and doing every needful thing to be ready.  On Monday Morning about 4:45, I work at Legacy, or I help them, walk around the place making sure that there are no problems.  There are not too many there, so I feel it a waste of time. On Wednesday, Bonnie goes at 6:30  p.m. and does the same thing. This morning while I was there, I felt that it was time to quit "working" there.  No it was not an income, we were doing it as service.  But we have been doing it for over a year, about 18 months, and I felt it was time to quit.  So after Bonnie goes this Wednesday we will quit serving at Legacy.

I felt it was a revelation from Father that we do that.  Thus it is happening.  I also felt that I had to go to work and make some changes there.  My bass wants me to manage a small department, but it is driving me crazy because he does not give me the tools to do so adequately.  I worry, fret, and struggle because I cannot do what is needed.  So today, I am going to let him know that I don't not want to do that any longer.  He needs to find someone to do it for he is worried about me leaving in four months anyway.

So at work I am going to do that also.  It feels good and inspired from Father.  Now I will wait after these two things are done and wait for further instructions from Father, or other direction how to find ore for our ship.  I know I am nothing, but in His strength, I can do all things.  I am starting to try to figure out how to do all things, starting with building a ship according to His direction.

I also feel there are other things that I need to do, and/or we need to do in building our ship, getting ready for a mission.  I will keep you appraised of what happens at work, with building a ship, the directions and design of the ship, and any other thing that Father directs.  It is time.
