Car Ride Up

This is where I get to write my own personal thoughts.  On my way up to Primary's this morning (it was my turn to sleep at home last night) I was pondering A LOT of things.  There is a movie our family likes to watch called 17 Miracles. At the end of the movie an older lady talks about the hardships of the journey traveling west and says "It will all be worth it if my children believe." Something like that. Anyway, I had such an overwhelming feeling of the same kind only it was more like this. 

This will all be worth it if my children gain a great love of service to others and from others. If they become more empathetic and loving to others. If they gain a testimony of how many miracles the Lord blesses us with each day and how much He LOVES US!  It will ALL be worth it if my children's testimony of Christ strengthens and grows into something powerful and deep and full of faith in Him.  Then it will all be worth it.

  2. Whenever I've had to accept service, and I've had to accept a lot, this has been the silver lining... my children have learned how Christlike people are, and how they can pay it forward. BTW those drives, horrible as they are somedays, can be pretty good thinking & inspiration time... I did it for six weeks with my twinners. Love ya!
