Self-Worth

I am going to change self-worth to divine potential.  In Doctrine and Covenants section 18 verse 10 it reads, "Remember the worth of the souls is great in the sight of God." I know I have a divine potential and my Heavenly Father has a plan for me. The adversary tries on a daily basis to drag me down, he doesn't want me to progress wants me give up on the plan of happiness and to succumb to his will. I love what Elder Perry said "You are not competing with anyone else. You are only competing with yourself to do the best with whatever you have received." It is important to remind myself that I am a daughter of God who loves me to return to him.  I need to be positive and remember everything will work out I just need to do my best and endure to the end. I feel part of finding my self-worth is getting lost in the service of others. My goal for Self-worth is to find the joy in the journey. Looking for the good in each day will the spirit in to life me up.

"May I suggest that you reduce the rush and take a little extra time to get to know yourself better. Walk in nature, watch a sunrise, enjoy God’s creations, ponder the truths of the restored gospel, and find out what they mean for you personally. Learn to see yourself as Heavenly Father sees you—as His precious daughter or son with divine potential."
