Notes from Balance Fireside

Trying to get things organized around here and found my notes from the fireside on Balance by Bishop Lesko, 14 June 2009.

Balance is finding a focus that is between being deficient and excessive.

Temporal balance is found by setting priorities, preparing, planning, helping, and simplifying.

Spiritual balance is found through worship, prayer, fasting, temple attendance, reading and pondering scriptures, learning the gospel, paying a full tithing, strengthening our testimony, and being of service.

We can't do it by ourselves! We have our Heavenly Father and his Son, Jesus Christ. The atonement strengthens us when we cannot take it on all by ourselves.

Thanks, Bishop!
