Just Stuff

So, there are times in life where we learn some good, hard, necessary lessons about life. And many times, those experiences we have are experiences that we'd rather not have to go through. Can you all relate? I can think of many, many instances in my life where I TOTALLY CAN relate!

I'm so grateful that I have faith. I'm so glad that there is a God and that HE is in charge. And even if things don't end up the way we want them to all the time, at least we know that no matter what, things will be okay. I'm glad I have the knowledge I have. And I'm glad we have such wonderful support groups around us. I am so grateful for family and friends. Jared and I are grateful for those who encourage us to better ourselves and be more Christ-like. I'm grateful I can serve and I'm grateful for the blessings that I have received. I have a wonderful husband and four wonderful children. And I have seen miracles in my life happen that sometimes I don't know if I deserve. The tender mercies of God are amazing. The love we can feel by choosing the right and living the way we should is so amazing. The more I experience life, the more love I feel. And the more I know that Heavenly Father loves me! I know He would never fail me and he would never leave or desert me. NEVER! I am so grateful to know these things without a shadow of a doubt...... It's so awesome to have that knowledge! It's awesome to know that there can be hope even in the most trying circumstances. And I just had a thought. I've always heard about how the atonement of Jesus Christ is powerful and also how the mercies of God are powerful too. Do these relate to each other? That's a really cool concept even though I myself know that Heavenly Father and Jesus are two separate beings. But how neat that is. Just a thought.....:)

Take care, everyone! Time for me to go to bed. Have a great night!
