Supes Discipline

Warren Buffet: The mega-mogul said: "The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything."

What can I say "No" to?
Jumping in a trade and not having a good set up. 
Not setting a SL. 
Not praying and studying my scriptures.
Not spending time every night with my wife.

The Constant Gardener

Building a strong testimony is just like growing a garden, we can't force it. Like Teancum did! Alma 52:6 " But he kept his men round about, as if making preparations for war; yea, and truly he was preparing to defend himself against them, by  a casting  up walls round about and preparing places of resort." Basically like going to the gym and getting ripped it takes focus and time. And if you stop going to the gym? (I stopped going to the gym for a week and a half and I lost 9 lbs. Of muscle.) Here's a positively down to earth quote: I believe many of us unknowingly accept a faulty assumption about the Lord’s pattern.

And that faulty assumption and our misinformed expectations ultimately hinder our ability to recognize and respond to the promptings of the Holy Ghost. Let me suggest that many of us typically assume we will receive  an  answer or  a  pro...

conquerors through him that loved us.

Chapter 20 The Ammonites and others attack Judah—Jehoshaphat and all the people fast and pray—Jahaziel prophesies the deliverance of Judah—Judah’s attackers war among and destroy themselves. we can praise God that Jesus Christ has fought the battle for our salvation and to rescue us from the judgment of God that we so rightly deserved. This makes us more than conquerors in Jesus Christ because He fights the battle and defeats our foe, and we share in the spoil. Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 2 Chronicles 20: 20-21  So they rose early in the morning and went: This showed that they really did believe the prophecy from Jahaziel. It was one thing to profess faith among an excited assembly; it was another thing to actually walk out to meet the enemy armies. As they went out before the army: The singers and worshippers led the army into this battle. It was clear that Judah expected a battle because they brought the army. Yet it...
