     | 8,495 views

Isn’t that ...read more

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 7, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,954 views

     | 5,826 views

    To some of us, seeking to live a balanced life is natural; to others, it is anything but natural. Nonetheless, the only way to obey all of Gods commands is through balance; we prefer to pick and chose instead.
