Yesterday in Gospel Doctrine we were discussing how to figure out your individual mission in life. After one sister's comment about the blessing of trials in your life, I heard myself say to the class: "You've got to embrace your trials as part of your growth."
Yet this morning, after my lovely yesterday (almost like a consequence of it), I woke up to a house in disaster mode and a dead battery on the van. Blah. Do I have to embrace these little stinky trials of Monday? Do I have to practice what I preach? How does conquering the laundry and clutter of Monday help me grow?
