It Changes Lives...

These cuties got their very own set of scriptures this past week. We went down to Seagull book for them to pick them out and get their names embossed on them. They are growing into amazing saints. They love God and want to learn more about Him and His plan for them. God has a special plan for each of us. We all have the ability for greatness.

It is our duty to be able to help our children find the path that God has set for them. Through regular scripture study and prayer, we can help our children grow closer to their Father in Heaven and truly gain an understanding of how truly amazing they are. They are sons and daughters of a king!

The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ. When we read it, we learn about Him in it's pages. The Book of Mormon and Bible have an amazing strength and power within them. They can turn a rough day around. They can give meaning to a trial we are going through. They can bring us joy, as we grew closer in our relationship with our Savior and Father in Heaven. It literally has the power to change lives. It has the power to convert. If you read them with an open heart, you will know that they are the word of God and that it is true.

He came for us...

Earlier last week, while doing a bit of evening scripture study, I came across a scripture that pierced my heart. It went straight into my soul and was like a fresh breath of air. In Mark chapter 2 verse 17 it reads, "They that are whole have no need for the physician, but they that are sick: I came not for the righteous, but sinners to repent". What a truly glorious message! 

I am sick y'all...not like health wise, but spiritual wise. I think we all are to one degree or another. I am VERY imperfect. I stumble and I fall constantly. Even though I have read this specific scripture multiple times, It really stood out to me.

I am rejoicing today to know that it is ok that I am flawed. It is ok that I fall short everyday in the things that God has in stored for me. God knew I would and that is why He sent His son. He sent Him, so we may be saved. So we may be able to be made whole....made perfect...because on our own we only fall short. 

I hope you too find joy in this message. God is so very good. I know that when we are struggling, He is waiting to carry us. Over the past year and a half, He's been carrying me because I was to weak to stand on my own. I would have times when I was stronger and times when I was not, but I always felt those loving arms around me...telling me it would be alright.

He is mindfull of us everyday. I pray you feel Him today. I pray I listen to His promptings today. He knows so much more than I.

Have a beautiful day lovelies!
