  1. My wife and I have always considered ourselves as active members. We both are temple worthy and do the best we can. However, I work every other Sunday. My wife and I go to church every other week, but I can’t go the week I work. My wife doesn’t go without me though. If I work on a Sunday she will sleep in and not go to church at all. She still reads the scriptures daily and prays daily as well. She has a testimony and is always excited to tell me what she learned during her studies. For some reason she will never go to church unless I’m with her. There’s even been two weeks I had to go to church without her, because she won’t get up in time. maybe I’m thinking too much into this, but I’m worried about how this will effect our future family. For context We’ve only been married for 1 year. any advice?
  2. Thanks for your response. Yes, those are some great points and to answer your questions and I honestly don't have any of that figured out. I have goals, my main goal is I want to be a great father and husband. I want to be able to provide for my family. I figured that in order to get a good job to provide I need to go to college and get my degree. I have been in college for 4 years now. I get average grades, I have been involved on campus with the institute committee, I go on plenty of dates, and yet I don't really feel like I am progressing anywhere at all. I am currently majoring in English, however I have been having doubts about this and am not sure if I want to continue with this degree. I do get involved with clubs and other activities on campus that seem interesting. yes you do have a point, perhaps I am asking God to tell me too much. but what I really am asking him is for confirmation that I am doing the right things. However the only answer I get is to just have patience. Not sure if this makes sense.
  3. What exactly does it mean to have patience in God's plan for you? when I got home from my mission I had no Idea what I wanted to go into with my education or career wise. I asked for the blessing. In that blessing I was told to "if I do everything I'm suppose to and have patience in God's plan everything will work out." I feel like Ive done everything. I go to church, have a current recommend, I do all I can to serve others (at least I try to ) and I try to fulfill my calling to the best of my ability. It's been 6 years since that blessings, I have asked for other since then but its just the same blessing over and over again. The only thing different is the blessing say "God has a lot of blessings waiting for you." I really don't know what else to do. I haven't really noticed any changes in my life at all. in fact I have had a lot more negative stuff happen over the last 6 years. For example I have torn my ACL, suffered six concussions, tore my Achilles tenant, tore my rotator cuff, tore my munches, and lost my job. I still have no idea what I am doing in college and I struggle to stay motivated to finish my assignments. I just don't get it really. We are told in Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: But it really feels like: Ask, and it MIGHT be given you; seek, and ye MIGHT find; knock, and wait in the rain for hours, maybe days, maybe month, and possibly years then it MIGHT open unto you. Yes I know Faith is believing in things not seen but are true, but are we meant to walk around our whole life blind then? What exactly are we suppose to have patience for? I feel like I am doing everything I am suppose to do, but I am still getting no direction. I know I am not suppose to look for some star to fall from heaven but I am still told to have patience. I just don't know what I am having patience for. God says he knows me and loves me better than anyone else, but I don't see him trying to help me at all. Do you guys have any advice?
