Hope

"Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God"(Psalm 42:5-6, NIV).

Last night as I was checking my email, I got an email from my mom. It was simple, all it was, was this scripture. And it seemed to be the calm at the end of a trying day. I need to remember that no matter what trials I come across, I will never walk alone. He is always with me. Sometimes it is so hard to keep faith, but I know that there is a plan laid out for me and all I need to do is make good decisions and one day I will be able to have the family I want so badly.

I know that everyone has different trials and I pray that the times you feel alone, know your not. He is always with us.

Easter

For Easter we spent the day with Gary's Mom, Sister, & our Niece and Nephew. It was a small gathering, but we had a great time!

The video above truly touched my heart, there are so many issues that people are struggling with now a days, and this shows us that we arent alone in our struggles. Whatever they may be, I hope you dont feel alone, there is always someone with you.

"One of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so"

Draper Temple Open House

Last Thursday evening we went to the Draper Temple open house. It was beautiful! It felt like the tour was a bit rushed and the screaming kids kinda took away the reverence part of it. But non-the-less it was truly beautiful and I feel very blessed to be able to walk through there and experience it.

The minute you walked into the Celestial room there was an overwhelming sensation that I wasnt the only one there (and Im not talking about all the other people in the room). Words cannot describe how I felt in there, it was very moving.

Sad to say, while we were in the sealing room, and I stood there looking into the mirrors with my husband, and I wondered if we would ever make it there. I felt a million emotions came over me, but mostly was sadness. But I have hope that one day we'll make it to the temple.

Ok my non-lds friends & family. If you are completely lost as to what Im talking about, just ask. I'll try to explain it.
