My Random Blogging Therapy
I was thinking of the last stake conference Saturday night meeting I attended in this stake. Most of my ward was invited to Jonni's house for "breakfast" in the evening before stake conference. I backed up somehow over a pole that would've ruined or at least resulted in a hefty car bill. I was so grateful to my helpers that day. Many of whom got their church clothes dirty to help me. I probably missed the opening song but that was it.
I was so humbled and grateful that day. I know I complain a lot about living in Logan and how I can't really shop or eat out anywhere nice here BUT the gospel is the same wherever you go and that is true of the Dairyland. Despite my frequent annoyance that I don't get the princess treatment I love and expect from my family that includes my huge extended family network, I have home teachers and ward members who help me with my car problems that never cease.
It is such a blessing to be a member of this church. We are all trying to live like our father in heaven wants us to live. I know I need to try harder to be the person my father in heaven expects me to be. I know I disappoint him repeatedly. I'm grateful he continues to love and forgive me despite my weaknesses and imperfections. I am amazed that he lets me try again when I fail. The atonement took care of that for me.
