Forgiveness

I'm grateful for forgiveness. Especially for that of the people who read this blog who will forgive me for not posting everyday (crazy weekend guys). :D

But mostly I'm grateful for the forgiveness we can receive when we sin. It's all made possible through the Atonement of Christ. And I am so grateful for it.


What are you grateful for?

New Directions

I decided I want to take this blog in a new direction. I'll turn it into a gratitude blog, where I'll try everyday to post one thing I'm grateful for. I won't necessarily write something about it but there it will be. Maybe a picture too from time to time or a video.

Oh Joy

So I just want to say how grateful I am to have The Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints in my life. It's an immense blessing to know God's plan for us and to know that there is always some one there for me to talk with.

I think one of the greatest realizations I've come to because of having this Church is that I don't care who I impress or what people think of me as long as I'm keeping the commandments and doing things to make God proud. It's an awesome feeling fo' sho'.

Have you had any epiphanies lately?

Do the best you can ...then do a little better!

The title is a quote by President Hinkley.

I think it's great.

Anyways, this week I had 2 tests. On in Chemistry and one in my Philosophy class.

I studied for my chemistry test a lot and still wasn't feeling very confident. But I said my prayers and I said "I've studied so much please help me to do well on this test. Please oh please oh please oh please!"

And guess what I got an 85%, 5% above the class average!!! Yes I think it's a good grade and I'm very grateful for the blessings from God I have received that help me to do well in school.

I also got an 88% on my other test. I'm pretty happy right now!

Sorry...

Ok sad day this blog has more followers than my other one and yet I never update, but this year I resolve to do better. I will start with today.

Today was great! Nothing spectacular happened but that isn't a requirement for a great day. No I think a great day happens when we look at all the little blessings we have received throughout the day. The day was ordinary but I just feel so blessed to have the opportunities I have and my health and a loving support system.

I love going to BYU and I love studying Geology! This Earth is just such an amazing place we live in and it's so beautiful too!

Yep so That's my short insight for today. I'll be back later with more.

God Speed.

This Gave Me Chills

So my homepage is lds.org and I watched this video. I think this man is a good example of finding Joy in the Journey.

9/11 was an awful tradgedy and it affected many people. This guy was in the first tower on the 84th floor. He survived. Listen to his story, it's really inspiring. I like it a lot.
