Last Sunday, Sister Beck came to visit my ward and gave a talk. She spoke on how we should be more grateful and more positive about our life. That's the life we are given and instead of wishing for a different kind of life, we should cherish it and make the best out of it -- live it abundantly.
I have had a rough week. Gratefully, I received a blessing to receive a healing of the sick and comforting. I know that I will be okay no matter what and that trials are there to make us grow and become the person we need to be -- to achieve our potentials and to be more like the Savior. I came across this video on the Mormon Channel. I love hearing Stephanie share her positive attitude and her hope in the Savior despite the challenges she faces.
I love the quote at the end of the story: "Regarding our earthly journey, the Lord has promised, “I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up” (D&C 84:88). That is an everlasting declaration of God’s love and care for us, including—and perhaps especially—in times of trouble." Jeffrey R. Holland
We are all given a cross to bear and we can absolutely carry it with the Savior. I have learned throughout my trials that life is hard and unfair but so was it to some of the greatest people who ever lived even the Savior of the World. It's my life; I will live it more abundantly.
