I also made a deal with the Lord. I'm trusting that as long as I do the things I need to do, as long as I make an effort to better myself, my life will turn out the way that it's supposed to. So that means:
Read my scriptures more dutifully and intently
Pay attention in church
Magnify my calling
Be nice, even to people I don't like *coughBriancough* [Haha, just kidding, Brian :)]
Say my prayers more sincerely and often
I know that it'll make me better. And as I was about to do homework today, I looked at the clock. And realized that I can't just go most of the way. And you know what that means...
I have to go to FHE. Which is called Ward Home Evening in college wards, apparently. I've never gone. I never really liked mutual... and I was never interested in going to what is basically mutual in college.
But, I made a deal. And I want my end of it to turn out well. So, I went to WHE tonight! It was a picture scavenger hunt. We didn't win, but it was fun haha. Only one picture was taken on my phone:
Rachael (my friend) and Molly (my roommate) on the A. |
In conference, I believe it was Elder Perry that said blogging and internet communication is a good way to spread the gospel. So to whoever may be reading this, I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and I know that it's true. I have a testimony of our Savior and I know that He wants me to be happy, just like He wants you to be happy. No matter what.
So, as long as I keep up my end of the deal, He will keep His.
These last two posts are beautiful, Kolbie Anne. I'll admit that this last one made me tear up a little bit, because I am just very proud of the bright and faithful young woman that you are. Keep holding onto that faith! I love you.
ReplyDeleteP.S. We never called it WHE in my singles ward. It was still FHE- family home evening. But it definitely makes more sense to call it ward home evening, I guess. :)
You're friends with a RachAel? Kolbie...
