seeking council


We talked about appropriate strategies to seeking counsel with our spouses and families.  First we went over the way the 1st presidency counsels.  They go to the temple every Thursday and go through a process of steps.  They express love and appreciation, pray and invite the spirit, discuss to consensus, recognize the Lord’s will, and end with a prayer.  We can have the same type of counsel and receive the inspiration and revelation we need when we invite the Lord.  When we are discussing with our family it is important to keep in mind that despite what everyone says each person has the right to their opinion and we shouldn’t down play them.  This is a great process to establish and have within the family.
