If someone calls your boundaries selfish, it’s likely because they benefit from you having none. Eventually, they’ll drain you until you have no peace, no joy, and nothing left to give anyone else. Time for a change.
Here is what a boundary really is—and what it’s not. 🧵

CFM this week: D&C 76 - The Vision
Jan 1832: Most human beings will suffer eternally in hell. Burning forever.
Feb 1832: The vast majority of God’s children are destined for glory in heaven because of Jesus Christ. Each will have all the heaven they are willing to receive.

Church attendance, a thread:
Please don’t misunderstand me on this, I really like Church. I go weekly. I enjoy my ward and usually have a great experience.
With that said, the Lord is not confined by the four walls of a church. If we aren’t careful we can fall into the trap of
generalizing people into categories. Church attendance can become a filter by which we begin to see people as spiritual/non-spiritual. Many many of those we describe as “inactive” are very close to the Lord. They have big hearts, they pray, read scripture, serve others, and/or
