If you could immediately have the willpower, know-how and skill to do one things better in the church and your duties toward the Lord in his church, what would it be?

Ewwwww, not in my ward. I'd have nightmares. That lady's not anywhere near her prime anymore! I guess I would want the ability to look at people more as the Savior does. That's a challenge for me.

I wish I were a better teacher, that is my frustration right now.
But if I could have a second wish it would be to play the piano. And if I could have a third wish it would be to be more receptive to the spirit and to be a better communicator w/others.
Right now I most need to improve my organization and decrease my tendancy to procrastinate things relevant to my callings.
Mahonri: Um... I didn't ask you what your favorite super power would be... Sheesh...
I think mine would be to be a better leader, or perhaps one who knows how to work harder--less lazy--more self-reliant so I could have a howitzer to protect my foodstorage.

I'd love to be able to come to that instant understanding when the Holy Ghost is whispering. Instead I allow my thoughts to become muddled and confused sometimes, when things really should be so clear.

But when I don't let it get muddled, it's not so bad to do it. I love the BD entry on prayer about bringing the will of the child closer to the will of the Father. It's like I know with every ounce of me all of the things that I should do, and I know what the Father would ask of me, I just have trouble because I forget and things get muddled and confused once in awhile. It's kind of what my focus has been lately.

OK, how about I wish I had a clone... or two or three. Shucks I could get everything done that I want to get done.
I'd love to play the piano better. I can only do a few hymns.
