The thing that spoke to my heart was this:Stop focusing on the don&#8217;ts and focus on the DO&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>So what does that mean for me?  <\/p>\n<p>Here is <em>my<\/em> list:<br \/>\nDO eat fresh fruits and veggies that are in season<br \/>\nDO eat grains of all kinds as my main source of nutrition<br \/>\nDO go to bed early and get up early<br \/>\nDO get plenty of exercise (not in word of wisdom but in modern revelation)<br \/>\nDO eat meat sparingly (that means I <em>can<\/em> eat meat sometimes &#038; not feel guilty that I am breaking the w of w)<\/p>\n<p>If I focus on the do&#8217;s and less on the don&#8217;ts I will be blessed even more.  Fortunately for me, I&#8217;ve got the don&#8217;ts down.  So focusing on those does not help me progress spiritually.  However, if I spend the time focusing on the do&#8217;s, which I don&#8217;t have down very well, I <em>will<\/em> progress spiritually.  On top of that, I&#8217;ll get a healthier body and mind and be able to have the strength to accomplish all that the Lord needs me to accomplish.  <\/p>\n<p>What great blessings can be in store for me if I focus on the do&#8217;s and actually do them!<\/p>\n<p><em>p.s.
