In response to my latest post previous to this one, a dear friend whom I have repeatedly mentioned in my writings, Lennox Morey, reminded me that while this might be a major re-dedication of my life, each day, week, and month we must re-dedicate ourselves to that which is most important.
It is true and I hope to have him post his comments more than just reply, because I have truly at times of my life, steered my boat by the currents of his wisdom. He is a hard man to understand, unless you are willing to suspend normal modes of thinking and stop doing anything but listen while he talks.
He has been called crazy by so many, but I call him often for inspiration, and hang at times on his every word.
He has taught me most importantly, that to be a great leader, I must know who I am following, and not worry or look behind.
This past weekend was a weekend of re-dedications, as my lovely wife and I worked to paint our family room and marshall what kids would help, to get the job done before the weekend had ended.
Saturday night, Holly and I took a few hours and re-dedicated ourselves to each other, and had a forever memorable moment as we shared thoughts for the future, and our vision of how things will be in the next year.
And so I sit on a Monday morning preparing to join a call, and basking in the glow of a huge weekend of re-dedication, and knowing that I cannot fail, and that whatever the circumstances around me, I still create my life how it will be, with my choices and my focus.
Most of all, I re-dedicated my life to my Savior, Jesus Christ, and had a wonderful experience listening to our Church General Conference and the myriad of topics covered.
