The Promptings I Almost Missed—and the Blessings Jesus Still Gave
His Tender Mercies #11 (in bullet points)
Hi everyone!! I feel like my life has been a tornado lately. A good tornado. Maybe a blender mixing my favorite fruits, with unexpected wonderful flavors I never thought I’d like, lol. I’ve been following some *cough* 😂 overdue promptings, and I felt the Lord so eagerly give me the blessings He’s been wanting to give me. Lately, I’ve been thinking “Wow, I wish I followed this prompting right when I received it.” I wonder how much peace I would’ve received if I didn’t delay. I want to share them with you because these things have helped me come closer to Jesus and could bring value for your own life. 🕊️
Giving up eating processed sweets has been a long battle of mine (even allowing myself once a week or once a month doesn’t work for me lol) because hello I love donuts, and it is something I have felt like God has been telling me would help improve my mental/physical health. I didn’t take it seriously until recently. I’ve only been eating fruits and peanut butter! I kid you not, afternoon slump is gone. My confidence and self-esteem has risen, so, so high. My endurance in practicing Christlike attributes feels incredibly strong and possible. I feel the Lord more often. I have more clarity. It’s only been 8 days, folks. The divine blessings of health are irreplaceable. I’m so glad I finally listened to Jesus.
I stopped watching YouTube influencers/shows for almost two months. I noticed that I turned heavily to shows and YouTube influencers when I struggle. My balance in spending time with God was off, and I knew this because my prayers and spiritual nourishment felt extremely low. I judge my spiritual nourishment based off of my reoccurring thoughts, mental/physical health, habits, how I treat people, and how I view my life. My balance in viewing certain media feels stronger now and I know that God truly desires for me to make Him be the greatest influence of my life. 😭

Talking about Jesus with friends and loved ones often is a game changer. That’s why I started my podcast, Psalms of the Heart!!! 😭
“Enjoy your blessings now. It’s not a matter of hope. It’s a matter of time. Have a wonderful life, Jae.” — an angel customer from my job who randomly delivered these words to me from my Father in Heaven, words that shook me and filled my heart 🥹✨
Practicing charity and virtue makes life easier, better, and more joyful. This talk from President Nelson enhances this bullet point, hehe. Weirdly enough, my health choices (like giving up processed sweets) has given me more strength to practice these two attributes. The body and spirit are truly connected. I feel more present and grateful!!
This song cover. Highly recommend!! 🥹♥️
One of my recent notes: :’)
Feasting on the words of God, from the Bible and the Book of Mormon. Prioritizing God’s words and opinion has been freeing!! Also, I am convinced that comparison is the brother of pride, and he is just as poisonous. 🫠
