Work toward Self-Reliance


Spiritual and temporal self-reliance don’t happen overnight. We develop self-reliance progressively by making a series of right choices. No one wakes up one morning and says, “Today I will be self-reliant!”

Okay, maybe some people do, but they don’t develop this quality in a day. Self-reliance is part of our eternal progression—it results from a series of daily decisions that affect both our spirituality and our temporal life.

 


Self-reliance takes practice and a deliberate course of action. But if we understand that everything is spiritual to the Lord, then we can show more reverence in our attitudes toward our work.
