Are You Navigating Your Path As You Endure

Be Actively Engaged In Navigating Your Course
Linda Lovshin gave a wonderful lesson on how trusting the doctrine of Christ can help us increase our faith, repent, take upon ourselves the name of Christ through baptism, receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, and endure until the end.
We learned that we must navigate our path by learning the doctrine of Christ. Gaining knowledge of the doctrine will help us develop increased levels to be full of hope, to be courageous, to be more confident in our abilities to help the Lord build up His kingdom, to be more trusting in the Lord, to be able to press forward with steadfastness, to have increased charity, and to endure all things while we live on the earth.
Enduring means not waiting for the end to come, but to be actively engaged in navigating our course.
Through baptism we get rid of the old and welcome the new. As we welcome the new, we can look back on our experiences and help others. Through the Atonement we can repent but can also keep our past experiences as learning agents to help navigate a course that is filled with a brighter hope for our future, and as we influence others with the knowledge we have gained, we come together as one unit and one mind.
