Thank you. I needed this today as I realize AGAIN that it is I who am in error AGAIN and need to repent AGAIN (after getting really mad at someone foolishly AGAIN and saying so AGAIN)... just when I thought I was about to be translated *cry* :)

Thank you so very much for this excellent article. Although I do not always comment, my favorite part of each Wednesday morning's personal devotional time is reading and pondering the true principles shared in your weekly article. I never miss it and today I just had to share my own "Make it to garbage day" analogy which has seved me well for years. For a long time now I have faithfully attempted to gather up the "garbage" of my sins, weaknesses, infirmities, iniquities and burdens each Sunday morning and gratefully place them upon the "Sacrament Altar" where the Savior picks them up and with His infinite mercy and loving kindness shoulders them all and carries them away. I then symbolically bind myself to Him, take His Name upon me and remember Him daily as I stumble through another sanctifying and purifying week, collect the inevitable "refuse" of this mortal journey and once again await the Sabbath "Take out the garbage" Sacrament Day! Thank you for the reminder! I am truly grateful! :)
