    I just want to say hi and that I’m glad I found this forum.  I haven’t been so active but I’m thinking of maybe going back.  Thanks to a sister that I bump into the other day.  I still believe in the gospel very much.  Nice to be able to chat with other members.

    There are a few General conference talks that have had a big impact on me recently.  "By Divine Design",  "Of regrets and resolutions",  "Kindness, Charity and Love".   They have helped me through my recent difficult times.

    Glad to hear! I attended last Sunday after 4 months and I do miss going.  It was nice.  I can’t stand being away for so long.  It starts to feel awful.

    Definitely come back.  I have never fallen away from the church, but for the longest time I was an apathetic participant.  Lately I have been really digging into the gospel and has really awakened something good in me.

    Are you doing the work at home? If so, you might consider getting a blessing on your home. Just a thought!

    Welcome @Deyra!  Did you know that some of your ancestors probably used fountain pens?
    (Today is National Thesaurus Day, National Mispeling Day, and National Thread Derailment by Fountain Pen Day.)

    well friends, 
     
    after about 5 years wandering the waste of Babylon,  I have chosen to get my life back together and get back in the Church. I've never had an issue with leadership, or found flaws in church history. I didn't even find fault with doctrine. I just needed a break. 
     
    However,  I am happy to say that I am choosing to end that break and come back home. All this chaos in the modern world as really made me think about both myself and the world I live in. I hate to say it, but If I run the risk of being shot in public by unknown powers, I would feel better if I at least had my Endowments before hand. 
     
    So everyone, what have I missed?
  17. Thanks

    There is certainly a scriptural pattern to Satan trying to stop good things from happening. But don't worry you are in good company with many of the great prophets of the past!

    You don't ask the adversary to go, you command the adversary to go, and ask for the Lord's protection and spirit.   I mean, LDS folks don't do much in the way of exorcisms or stuff like that, but we also know in whom we've placed our trust.  No need to be polite with satan.

    Thanks so much for your comment.  I never thought of praying and asking for adversary to go.  I will do that next time I log in.  I have gotten to a point that I’m just afraid.  I don’t want to be afraid.  I feel my ancestors very happy and thankful.  Every time I find one the feeling is amazing but then I get hit with so many problems right after it that is freaking me out.  When I stop everything goes back to normal.  Doing this work is part of my patriarchal blessing and I need to continue.  Same thing happened to me when I got my endowments.  Thanks for sharing.

    What sits under @Deyra ‘s desk when she is doing family history. Cool to think that your ancestors are so ready to accept the gospel that Satan has called out his Troops!

    Keep with it.  Huge possibility it is Satan trying to bring you down because he knows the importance of this work and will do anything to thwart it.  KEEP DOING IT!!

    Thanks for your response.  That’s exactly how I feel that is Satan trying to stop me. I want to still hang in there and continue doing more family search.   At times is very draining.  But So far I found over 200 deceased family members that needed work done.  I know I can find more.

    @Deyra. Hi there! Your experience is disturbing. I know that when I was approved to get my endowments but had not yet received them, my life started to fall apart. Consequently, I arranged to go by myself to the temple instead of waiting for an escort.
    I wonder if there are times when Satan realizes that you are onto a good thing and tries to stop you? For example Joseph Smith’s experience of darkness before the First Vision. Hang in there!
