Letting Go of What You Can’t Control and Embracing What You Can

The Hymn of the PearlThis week, we dive into a story that’s stuck with me ever since I heard it in sacrament meeting: the Hymn of the Pearl. Have you ever felt like you were just going through the motions, forgetting who you really are? Join us as we unpack this ancient Christian allegory about a prince on a mission—sent far from his home, caught in the distractions of Egypt, and needing a powerful reminder of his true purpose. What does “Egypt” look like in your life? And who or what helps you remember your identity and mission?We get real about how easy it is to lose focus and get tangled in the problems of the world—whether it’s politics, social media, or local drama (like a new housing development going up across the street). I share some honest struggles about wanting to fix everything, and together we ask: where should we actually spend our energy, and what’s okay to just let go? Plus, a powerful reminder from the Serenity Prayer helps guide us through the wisdom of knowing what we can—and can’t—change.If you’ve ever wondered how to stay grounded when life gets overwhelming, or how to reconnect with your divine identity, you won’t want to miss this one. I’d love to hear—what are the “letters” in your life that help you wake up and remember who you really are?Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.
