Seek

The word I'm focusing on this year is Seek.

I want to make sure that I am seeking the Lord and His will at all times.

Lately, I've realized that God has always answered my prayers when I have been seeking something.


About 15 years ago, I realized there was a need for piano players in my ward. 
I decided I should relearn how to play.
I prayed and asked for help from the Lord.
And I practiced like crazy.

Yesterday, I played for the stake baptisms.


About 5 years ago, I really wanted to figure out how to become more involved in family history.
I prayed that the Lord would help me find a way.
And I started adding sources to my ancestors' records each morning from my phone.

This last week, there were 15 ordinances done for people I've been finding on family search.

 "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall findknock, and it shall be opened unto you" Matt 7:7

I know the Lord hears my prayers and will give me answers if I ask.

I know that as I seek to serve others, the Lord will help me find the way.

I know that as I work hard (knock), the Lord opens the way for me.
