Sunday Sunday.

I went walking to the temple today and I got blisters on my heel because I rolled down my socks. They are too big!! I need to get some of those low socks. Anyway.. the walk was really good I walked all the way to the top of the hill behind the temple, and just looked around. I was going to walk down a street to look at houses but soon realized that I didn't know where the road would lead to so I turned around.

On the way home I talked to my Mom about different things. Being out a college and the age that I am, a lot of things can be confusing and there can be too much to take in at times. Life is hard, but it is beautiful at the same time. There are so many things I have yet to learn or to discover.
Patience is something I will have to learn and well as getting through this upcoming Semester. My goal will be to bring up my GPA a lot. It's not bad, I just want to bring it up more!!! That would be exciting.

I can't wait to go home, I am forgetting the dates so it can approach faster.

Today was a great day though. The speakers were really good and the Sunday School Lesson about the Plan of Salvation and the Relief Society Lesson about Forgiving were great.

One thing I'll leave with you.

As you know, we all sin. (Duh). But there are times in our lives when we fail to forgive ourselves. There was a time in my life when I thought I was a horrible person. I thought Heavenly Father would never forgive me. I suffered, it was a long road. I didn't make horrible choices, nothing was severe enough to be talked to the Bishop about, but I forgot who I was.
So as the year rolled on, I changed. I became a totally different person. I developed a strong testimony of the Gospel and I came to truly know the nature of our Heavenly Father and his Son Jesus Christ. I am so thankful for the Atonement and I know that it is real because I have felt its power in my life. It heals wounds and saves souls.
The Adversary knows the mistakes that we have made. He tries so hard to get us to think we are worthless and unworthy people. DO NOT BELIEVE THAT! Our Heavenly Father loves us. He is waiting to reward us for all of the good works that we have done. I was thinking this week after I had done something that wasn't too great, "Oh man, what if Heavenly Father takes away blessings from me?" But that is not what he does. That is not how he works. He will never reward us with something awful. He wants to give us the best gifts and he will give those to us if we keep his commandments and endure to the end. When Satan comes at you and makes you think you are worthless, think again. We all make mistakes, but the Atonement is a beautiful gift that provides us with a way to become clean and stand worthy before God.
We are Sons and Daughters of God and with that knowledge I know that I can become as He is. Perfect, clean, and beautiful. He offers us so much if we will just come unto Him and live his commandments.
