Gently Does it

Doctrine and Covenants 6:36
Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not.

Mormon 1:7
"I do not know all things, but the Lord knoweth all things which are to come; wherefore He worketh in me to do according to His will."

I recently listened to some of C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity and recall a few different points he made.  He talked of a simple, yet universal principle that there is good and evil.  And that good is of God and evil is of Satan.  I think growing up, with out even realizing it, I became desensitized to this concept.  It didn't seem real to me or "close", if that makes sense.  I am now learning that this isn't just church talk.  I have been paying close attention to the direction of my thoughts and ideas and I know that it truly is a battle for our souls up there.  Think how powerful our world could be if we trained our minds to, in the moment, distinguish the difference from good and evil, virtue and vice.  And inturn, fight for the truth!  And tell Satan to shut the hell up!  There was so many "ands" just then, it should be illegal! ;)  It seems extreme and almost arrogant to many people, the notion to try to be more cautious of those things that are "just human nature" or "natural", because it all has become normal! That is scary!
