Blessings


I have had a lot of little blessings in my life as of recent.
{there have been too many to count}

Unfortunately, after you have received an outpouring of blessings, there is a stretch of time where you seem to forget a lot of those things that have happened and a lot of people who have looked out for you.

Once again, you're all alone.

It is precisely at that moment that Heavenly Father takes the time to remind you that you are never alone!
He reaches out and shows you that you haven't been forgotten.

Small, simple acts of kindness are sent your way.

I wish more people knew just how impacting a simple hello could be.  A simple "I'm thinking about you" can turn someone's day a whole 360 degrees.

I wish more people were willing to act on the impressions they receive to reach out to those around them. {including myself}

We have a Heavenly Father, who instead of smacking us on the head and saying, "Hey, look at all the great things I just barely sent your way," He grabs your hand, touches your heart, and reminds you that you are His, and that you are surely loved.

Once again, you feel peace.

Once again, you feel love.

Heavenly Father loves us more than we could ever comprehend; He will never abandon us.

Angels are sent our way each and every day. 
{thank you to my Angels}
“We will know of God’s love for us. We will understand that we do not ever walk alone.  I promise you that you will one day stand aside and look at your difficult times, and you will realize that He was always there beside you.”   -- President Thomas S. Monson

Finding Courage

Here's to anyone who's faced with making a serious decision sometime in the near future. I know exactly how scary it can be.  Perhaps you just have trials in your life that seem impossible to beat. All I have to say is believe in yourself, trust in God, and take the step you need to. You will receive the strength that you need if you but only ask for it - angels will be at your aid.  Have faith and remember to pray always. It will get you through the tough days.  I promise, it will be okay in the end.  The road less traveled may appear to be a lonely one, but all things are possible with God.  Have courage.  You will be blessed... more than you can ever imagine.



{The Road Not Taken}
By: Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
