January 21st Weekly Connection

It's a Wrap.... What will you do with it now?

What can we do to avoid a spiritual eclipse? (A spiritual eclipse can occur when we allow minor and troublesome obstructions - those we face in our daily lives - to get so close that they block out the magnitude, brightness and warmth of the light of Jesus Christ and His gospel.)

We can...
1. Partake of the sacrament each week.
2. Study the scriptures.
3. Have daily prayer.

"If you discover anything that seems to be blocking the light and joy of the gospel in your life, place it in a gospel perspective.  Look through a gospel lens and be vigilant not to allow insignificant and inconsequential matters in life to obscure your eternal view of the great plan of happiness.  In short, don't let life's distractions eclipse heaven's light."
