We can do amazing things when we are in His side!

I enjoyed very much this week's readings and videos. Here are the point I want to remember, extracted from the week's material:
-People might laugh at you, but with the Lord you can do amazing things.
-Take inputs and come up with solutions
-We have to run our businesses. They can't run our lives.
-Stop back and think: "why am I doing it?"
-Some blessings come soon, some come later, some come only in Heaven, but they come!
-When facing a problem and when we don't have time to solve it completely, try the 5W's and
tackle at least one thing / one improvement in each area.
I had a very nice week and I just came back home from a date with my husband. We went to the movies and watched a new arrival directed by Mel Gibson called "Hacksaw Ridge". It tells about the life of a righteous man who wanted to serve his country in the war, but had promised the Lord that he would never touch in weapons (just like the anti-nephi-lehies did). He then went into war and faced opposition, but stayed true to his faith and became a hero saving many wounded soldiers.
The movie portraits how he saved all those man with the help of the Lord and got to be respected by his opponents, later. He believed in Revelation and received it to save the lives of many.
(The movie also had the most realistic battle scenes I have ever seen. I felt I could have a glimpse of what it really was to be there, and to bound with ones mat-soldiers in the field (like mission companions). The film is strong and made me ponder about how stupid wars actually are...)
This is a real story, and it made me ponder a lot about how we are made strong when we have the Lord in our side.
I am taking time recording this because I want to remember how I felt, and how grateful I feel for all the opportunities I receive from the Lord: living in a peaceful country, having the chance to run my own business and for knowing I can be made super strong -the strongest!- when I am in His side.
