(I do not mean to offend anyone by what I say, we all take our own road, but this is my blog and my personal views and beliefs.)
Sometimes life doesn't always work out the way we expect it to. Sometimes we dream of things our whole lives, but they never happen. We have to adjust and change to be the best person we can, with what is thrown our way. No one is perfect, but we all have to try our best. Sometimes we struggle and feel there is no one there to help us. But there ALWAYS is and there ALWAYS will be, we just have to be willing to seek Him. I truly love this song and cry everytime I listen to it.
This weekend I had an interesting experience. I was able to attend two weddings, one an outdoor wedding and one married in the temple. The differences from the two atmospheres were phenominal. You would think that the feeling would be the same as two different couples join together in marriage, but it was not. Friday night as I left wedding number one I vowed to myself that I would never get married anywhere besides the temple. I thought about this as I attended wedding number two and everything seemed happier. Then as I was almost in a car accident I realized not only do I have to vow that I have to live it. I have to actively engage myself in the gospel to get where I want to be. I feel as though as of late I have just been floating through life, not actively pursuing anything, just hoping things will work out. But nothing is just going to come to me I have to go out and get it.
This year as I have delved more into my studies in school I have realized that why I have been just floating is that I have not been passionate about the things I have been doing. I am passionate about my classes therefore I study and do my homework and my readings. I have just had to renew my passion for the gospel and the scriptures and continue to work and it and be converted. Because as I learned in sacrament you have to work at being converted your entire life, constantly building your testimony. So that you can gradually transform from a caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly. So my new goal is to start my transformation and continue to be converted. So, that I will have oil for my lamp and be ready for the arrival of the Bridegroom.
