"And now, my sons, I speak unto you these things for your profit and learning; for there is a God, and he hath created all things, both the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them are, both things to act and things to be acted upon."
2 Nephi 2:14
Some good things to remember, that God exists and that he created all things. By themselves those are huge, incredible truths that we often overlook or take for granted. But I love the extra bonus part at the end of this verse--"things to act and things to be acted upon." It makes me think of our own free agency, and how sometimes we sit around like lumps, waiting to be acted upon, when maybe we should be up and acting instead.
Today, let's remember the huge truths of God's existence and creation... and then let's do something about it. Not saying that rest isn't good sometimes, because it totally is. But today let's remember that sometimes we need to act, and not just wait to be acted upon. :) Let's have faith, and start doing good and learning and growing without having to be prompted. :)
