This past week has been an amazing experience. After a hard conversation I decided to step back and change how to do things. I have been learning to make things from a goal into a habit. I start out my day with prayer, reading the Book of Mormon, and a 14 day walk with Christ. In Young Woman's for 14 days there was a different value with questions to think about and a story that goes along with it. At the end of the day I say a prayer and read a chapter of Miracle of Forgiveness. It has been so amazing and helps my day since I start out spiritually and end spiritually. I have been learning that I can turn to my Heavenly Father and tell him everything and anything. I had been stressed and hurting and once I turned to my Heavenly Father things got better. I felt peace and have continued to feel better about things. I'm so grateful to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm also grateful for friends and how supportive all of my friends have been for me in all my decisions and actions. I would like to share one of the amazing blurbs I have read. I hope you enjoy!
Dear friend,
I just had to send you a note to tell you how much I love you and care about you. I saw you yesterday as you were walking with your friends. I waited all day hoping you would want to talk with me also. It hurt me, but I still love you because I am your friend.
I saw you fall asleep last night, and I longed to touch your brow, so I spilled moonlight on your pillow and your face. Again I waited, wanting to rush down so that we could talk. I have so many gifts for you, but you awakened late the next day and rushed off to school. My tears were in the rain.
Today you look sad, so alone. it makes me heart ache because I understand. My friends let me down and hurt me so many times too. But, I love you. Oh, if you would only listen to me. I really love you. I try to tell you in the blue sky and in the green grass. I whisper in the leaves on the trees, and breathe it in the color of the flowers. I shout it to you in the mountain stream and give the birds love songs to sing, clothe you in warm sunshine and perfume the air with nature scents. My love for you is deeper than the oceans and bigger than the biggest want or need in your heart.
If you only knew how much I want to help you. I want you to meet my Father. He wants to help you too. My Father is that way you know. Just call me, ask me, talk with me. Please, please don't forget me. I have so much to share with you. But, I won't hassle you any further. You are free to call me. It's up to you. I'll wait because I love you.
Your brother,
Jesus
This hits me hard every time I read it and I am sad that I don't remember this all the time. I hope this touches someone and will help someone out. :D
I love the letter and all the things that you are doing I am very proud of you!!
