D & C 56:14

Behold, thus saith the Lord unto my people- you have many things to do and to repent of; for behold, your sins have come up unto me, and are not pardoned, because you seek to counsel in your own ways.

This scripture stood out to me today. How many times do we think 'oh I've got this under control, I know what to do' when in reality we don't. Somehow along the way we've broken that sacred trust between us & God. Wasn't this the same God who in Alma 34 is the God we are supposed to cry to over EVERYTHING?
And yet somehow we think us buying a car doesn't entail needing his blessing and guidance (I'm speaking from personal experience here) and now it seems to just come back & kick us? -- Car buying is NOT a pleasant experience, let me just tell you. Major headaches this past week.
We have lots of things to repent of in the simple fact that we have not asked God's counsel & blessing on our activities.
Wow.
