We all can’t equally care about or be passionate about everything.
With so many good, important things here on the earth, I personally believe that God gives us desires or allows our own desires to point us in the direction where we can do our part and make a difference.
And I believe that these desires and focuses can change throughout our life, too.
Nehemiah was a man who had never been to Jerusalem.
And yet he started feeling great concern about the walls of Jerusalem.
“Neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem.” (Nehemiah 2:12)
Nehemiah believed the Lord had put this desire in his heart.
And so he acted, and was able to rebuild the wall.
What desires are in your heart?
“‘Great and powerful convictions of truth’ are found in the hearts of Latter-day Saints in nations across the world. This strength of faith carries the work of the kingdom forward.” – Neil L. Andersen
How do you believe you have been asked to build the kingdom of God in your own way?
How have you found ways to make this world a better place in a way that you feel particularly passionate about?
Happy Studying!
