Last weeks attempted post

Sorry guys, I am not familiar with how blog spot works so I accidentally published my last submission as a comment on Sister Gardeners original one. This is just last weeks submission. I will be publishing another one later this week.

This last week has been an interesting one. I have been almost completely caught up in my studies as I prepare for finals, so I have not received many Say Go Be Do's. Half way through the week I decided that what I originally thought was just harmlessly not acting on what I wasn't receiving was really not living up to the part of the Say Go Be Do challenge that requires concentration. I knew I had to keep up with my studies, but I also knew that I needed to keep my commitment to you guys. So a couple days ago I said a special prayer with during my scripture study asking Heavenly Father to help me listen to the spirit. I went through my day just like I had gone through the days before it and nothing seemed to be happening. In the evening I started to be stressed. I got the prompting that I needed to do something with my little cousin who is staying with us this week. I acted on it, and it was a wonderful experience. I had a ton of fun and was able to relax, and by his reaction to the whole thing I would say he enjoyed it too. I've learned that sometimes you can't just wait to receive promptings, sometimes in order to receive them you have to actually be looking. But either way if they just come or if you have to stretch to notice them the results of following the spirit are still wonderful!
