The Gospel at 30,000 Feet By,President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
When I saw that President Uchtdorf, wrote a new book. This meant more amazing stories that relate to everyday life as a latter day saint. After reading this book I felt spiritually nourished and helped me know and understand the path that I want to continue on.
I love how he uses the analogy of flight to relate to gospel principals. I felt that through out this book I took what he said about how we can become better as latter day saints. One section of the book he talks about going through the motions of living the gospel, and how if we can recognize the signs of going through the motions then you are not that far from the path, and how we can get back to where we need to be. Other sections talk about Using our time wisely, Focusing on what matters most, Joy in church service, seeing the end from the beginning, and Patience with the lord's timing.
Some of my favorite quotes from this book are; "Discovering who we really are is part of this great adventure called Life." "If you want to move the world you must move yourself." "The Church is designed to nourish the imperfect, the struggling and the exhausted." "We can be come masters of our own selves."
Each one of us needs to pray, ponder, search, read, to draw closer unto God, and Jesus Christ. The Holy ghost will be the wind beneath your wings. You will be converted to the church and and never fall away. We can create lift in our spiritual lives, and we can feel lifted above the clouds. Prayer helps us descend above the gloomy times.
Finally he talks about reaching out destination, and he we can have our happily ever after. We all want this eternal happiness. Heavenly Father wants this for us. There is a map for us that we can follow his plan and reach this happily ever after.
I highly recommend this book. It will bring a better understanding of different parts of the gospel that we may struggle with.
