Oh my goodness it has been quite some time since I have posted on here! I feel like I say that every time, ha! I got a little spark of inspiration from church today but also from my cutie cousin Mallorie. She also has a blog, check it out! www.dancingonrainydays.weebly.com Today's post will probs just be short and sweet but here goes... :) I may be a little stiff on my writing skills as I haven't kept up with it in so long lol so just bear with me. As most of you know, I absolutely love and adore quotes so imma post a few to start and kind of base my thoughts off of those! (First off, a lot of these mention "girl, woman" etc. But these go for everyone!)
I am a firm believer in self love and self care, staying true to who you are, finding yourself, self-improvement, etc etc. Now, that all may appear and seem to be SELFish but it truly isn't. Our peace of mind and well-being need to be made a priority before we are able to give of ourselves to others. We briefly went over this in Relief Society today talking about how we can truly find ourselves through Jesus Christ and His gospel. I have seen this come true in my life countless times! I cannot tell you how many times I have fallen short and I have been lifted back up by Him... This life is tough man. It can suck so much sometimes but it also can be very beautiful. I loved this quote by Elder Dale G. Renlund in the October 2018 General Conference talk "Choose You This Day". He says, "Lucifer is an accuser or prosecutor. John the Revelator described Lucifer’s ultimate defeat: “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ.” Why? Because “the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.” Lucifer is this accuser. He spoke against us in the premortal existence, and he continues to denounce us in this life. He seeks to drag us down. He wants us to experience endless woe. He is the one who tells us we are not adequate, the one who tells us we are not good enough, the one who tells us there is no recovery from a mistake. He is the ultimate bully, the one who kicks us when we are down." We are a lot stronger than we think. Mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically, etc. and with God's help we are even more so. Just wanted to make this simple and short guys.. life is beautiful. There are so many reasons to be happy. So much to enjoy, even in the little day to day things. Happy Sabbath and y'all have a great week! Love, Ness

Ponderize Of The Week:
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed." - James 1:5-6 Quote Of The Week:
"Give it to God and go to sleep." - Unknown |
