Just helping my little brother Garrett out with a photo project
love my little Sister Alyssa! She is getting ready to go on a mission :)
makes me miss gymnastics..
Life is Interesting!
I loved today. I really just love the Sabbath! In the morning I was able to take some pictures for my brother. Just being around nature really gets me thinking. As I was sitting by the river I was able to ponder. I have come to a point in my life of decision making. I am eternally grateful for the blessing that I had to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
I have found that when we are obedient to the commandments, that our Loving Heavenly Father has given us we are happier :) That is one of our purposes on this life is to be happy! One of my favorite scriptures in the Book of Mormon is found in Mosiah 2:41
41 And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and ahappy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are bblessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out cfaithful to the end they are received into dheaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it.

I am thankful for wonderful parents who have always taught me to look upwards and to put my trust in my Heavenly Father. Today in Relief Society we were able to go over the first lesson in Preach my Gospel. The very first point is "God is our Loving Heavenly Father." I believe that when we truly understand that, then we can understand our potential. If we understand that we are literal sons and daughters of a Loving Heavenly Father then we understand our Purpose in life. When we understand our true identity we understand that we have a divine potential. Heavenly Father see's us in terms of the eternities and he see's us as who we can become.
Welp...I am falling asleep but here is quote that I like..
Great things are brought about and burdens are lightened through the efforts of many hands “anxiously engaged in a good cause.” M. Russell Ballard
Goodnight world....
go and do something good!
