Sections 112, 114, 118

Cleanse your heart and be humble, and the Lord will lead you by the hand and give you answer to your prayers. I need to continually pray for my heart to be cleansed and my intentions pure. This is something I have really been thinking about lately; pride just can't be part of me. When I do anything I need to thank Heavenly Father for it, and give Him the glory. I think this goes directly against the natural man, and is so hard to do consistently. Especially if we have worked hard for something! I need to remember that God ALWAYS gets the glory for any accomplishment I make, and I need to recognize His hand and ask Him to purify my intentions. My talents need to be used for His purposes, and not to lift myself up on a pedestal.
