Esau took the things of this world as a greater value than the things of God and it cost him a blessing. Now I worry about my impulsivity and how much it may hurt me or my family. I would say "don't worry" but the echo of the pebble is not fully seen till it's too late. May my children find God faster and better than I.
This is my web page for all the hangups and fun things that I have learned about religion and theology as it relates to my faith. I love being LDS and occasionally write about a question here or there but for the most part it is just general observations. There's funny comments and serious thoughts. Enjoy.

Esau tears and porage decisions
As I have been studying the story of Esau I have come to realize there is a difference between straightway doing the Lord's will and making impulsive postage decisions, taking a spiritual thing second to the will of the flesh first. I wonder how many times I have done this thing and how many blessings I missed because I desired vanity or I wanted to gaze upon lecivitiness or coveted something; little sins that deprived me of a blessing because of my impulsiveness. I am sure it's like a check-out at the store. The candy is tempting and would please the tongue but we are asked to bridal out passions like a dieter from the things that would easily beset us.
