Choose

I could decide to not read my scriptures or I can pick up my scriptures once again and dive right into them. I can not magnify my church callings or I can reach out to others in the capacity I have been called. I can attend the temple as often as I can or I can just not go. I can either go to all three hours of Church tomorrow or I can catch up the lost hours of sleep I have missed. I can either partake of the sacrament and renew myself or I can skip the bread and water. I can ignore the call from my Bishop or I can answer that call accepting to give a talk next Sunday.

But I choose to read my scriptures, magnify my callings, attend all three hours of Church, attend the temple and do all that I can to strengthen my testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

I was able to attend the temple today for the first time in about five months and it was absolutely beautiful. I was able to renew myself in the covenants I made with my Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ. I was able to strengthen my relationship with my husband as we remembered the covenants we made with each other just a mere five months ago. I was able to strengthen my relationship with my Heavenly Father. And I was able to remember why I love this Gospel so much!

The temple is not there for the perfect people, but for the imperfect people - like me. I just bare my testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ - that I know He lives and He loves us so much. He is why I read my scriptures, why I attend Church and the temple, why I believe in our Prophet Thomas S. Monson, and the reason I have hope in the world today. I love my Savior so much! That Church is true.

And now I choose to go read my scriptures to continue to strengthen my testimony of Him.

To be me

I realized tonight that I haven't felt like myself in a really long time.

And I don't like that. 

I am scared to look that. I am scared to loose everything I've worked for and losing myself. I love me, I love being me. I miss that. So much right now, possibly more than anything. I need to find her back.

I miss having friends. I miss laughing so much. I miss being in school. Myself is very important to me. And I'm proud of that. I love that I love myself. And now I just need to reach in and pull her back out.

Yup.

I have my very first domain name.

Moments

Tonight I had a moment - a moment that things will work out, that things are right, that I need to be better, that the Gospel is so very true, and a moment of realizing that I can do this.

More specifically that I need to be a lot better. The past two years have changed my life forever. I wasn't super strong in the church for about seven months. I lost a friend to suicide. And I made mistakes. I've lost friendships, but in return I've gained the best friends I've ever had. I've fallen in love, fell out in love. And now I am really in love with the best guy whose my best friend and boyfriend. I've really learned about my testimony and about the Atonement. Someways I've changed for the better and someways I've changed not so great - but I know through realizing those things that I will be able to see it, change it, and repent of it.

I believe in my Savior greatly and I believe in my Heavenly Father. I know they live and they love me so, so much. They are on my side cheering me on and wanting me to do the best I can.

On the other hand we have our brother Satan who is pulling us off and rooting for us to fall of in the deep end.

But I know with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we will win. We will win this battle and Christ is our leader. I love having that faith and that knowledge of something so greater than anything I can imagine.

Now it's my time to stand a little taller, do a little better, and be the person I know I can be. I am a daughter of God and I need for others to know who I am and what I stand strong in. So I start today and go from now on to be the Latter-day Saint I am. I go from this point on and be better than I was before.
