0127: Make-a-Plan Monday | November 17-23

It’s interesting to me that President Oaks became our new Prophet right before we got to these two sections of the Doctrine and Covenants. Section 133 is about preparing ourselves for the Second Coming (which we’ve heard a LOT about lately), but section 134 is about governments and how they’re supposed to serve the people.

President Oaks was a justice of the Utah Supreme Court – he knows a bit about governments and how they’re supposed to work.

I also find it interesting that he’s our prophet now when it seems like our government is a bit of a mess (it has been for a while – this isn’t a new thing). As we prepare for the second coming, what should our government look like? Is it supposed to be in chaos? Or should things be calm?

It’s not a mistake. Our Heavenly Father has a plan and it’s in motion. And the best part? We get to CHOOSE which part we play in that plan.

There isn’t a lot of stuff to review this week – our average study time is only about 15-16 minutes each day. You can find the complete checklist here: https://paisleyimperfect.com/make-a-plan-monday-november-17-23/

I would love to hear from you. What do you think about what these two sections are teaching us?
