So I've Been Thinking

Mostly about how much I've changed. In some ways I've changed for the worst, some for the better. I now have skill sets I didn't value before, and I'm grateful for them. I'm not going to delve into the actual changes just that I've gained a testimony of what God can do with a willing spirit. I'm better than I would be without His influence. I liked this quote I read earlier, Elder Richard G. Scott of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles: “You cannot today remotely imagine what that decision to be unwaveringly obedient to the Lord will allow you to accomplish in life. Your quiet, uncompromising determination to live a righteous life will couple you to inspiration and power beyond your capacity now to understand” (“Making the Right Decisions,” Ensign, May 1991, 34). What I've noticed is that the little things really add up and make a big difference.

I absolutely believe this. 100%. It is a great reminder, especially during temptation and trial. Thanks Andrea.
