So as you can see from my earlier posts, life has certainly thrown me some curve balls this past years. Well I just got done re-reading an amazing book called, The Secret Journal of Brett Colton by Kay Lynn Mangum. It is all about this girl who gets a special gift from her brother who died 14 years earlier. He wrote a journal just for her. This book is really amazing and put a lot of things into perspective for me. Even though life lately has been hard, I wouldn't change it for a minute! I have learned and grown from these experiences. I am so grateful for the family I was born into! I have been so blessed. My dad has an ability to know exactly what to say to make me feel better. My mom is the constant in my life that helps me to keep pushing through. I know that she and my dad will always be there for me and love my unconditionally. My siblings are also amazing examples of finding strength through difficult times.
I am most thankful for the truth of the gospel and for my Savior, Jesus Christ. Without this knowledge I would be lost. Nothing would make sense anymore. Thankfully I do have the knowledge that Jesus Christ died for me and that he is always there for me. I am so grateful to have been born into the gospel and for the joy and peace it gives to me. I am also grateful that although my faith was tested I came out the victor! I am excited for whatever the future may bring. I love the quote by Sister Hinckley, Come what may and love it! I am going to try and remember that and live by it. I may not love exactly the circumstances of the past year, but what I do love it the blessings that have came from it!
