I'll Follow His Light

What does God want our motivation to be? Or, what does He wish we thought about every time we face a choice?
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.     -Matthew 22:37-40
Love! God wants us to "follow His light" out of love, not out of fear, and not by blind obedience. He wants us to understand Him and His will for us. And the beauty of His doctrine is that we can understand it!

On that note, I'd like to share a video, "Even a Child Can Understand".

When I made my choice to "follow", and came to Georgia from California, my home, it was because I felt and honestly believed that God wanted me here, now. I never felt any pressure to serve a mission. I knew why I was coming, and I wanted to! I wouldn't trade my mission for anything.
