I absolutely love this time of the year. Not necessarily for the long days and more sunshine (even though I love that), but for Easter and General Conference. I am very excited that we get these two special days to reflect on back to back weekends. This is such a special time for the world to understand the Sacrifice Jesus Christ made for all of us and to understand our individual missions in this world.
General Conference is such an amazing time to listen to our prophets and church leaders and pray fervently about what we are called to do, how to be a better person, and how to humble ourselves daily and come unto Christ. It is so easy for people, and I know especially myself, to get wrapped up in the world and our busy lives. This is the time to make those realizations, become aware, and adjust our daily lives around the gospel. I am so grateful for the Gospel and the Sacrifice our beautiful Savior made for us to live with Our Father in Heaven again. I know our Redeemer lives and I am so grateful to be apart of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I have seen the blessings in our household and I will continue to stay steadfast and immovable through these Latter-Days. I know without a doubt Our Heavenly Father loves us so much and I want to do everything I can to show how much I love him back. It is not always an easy path, but it is a path that is worth it for all eternity.
Ether 12:27 "And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them."
This is one of my favorite scriptures, that I seem to stumble upon at the most perfect moments. Sometimes, we do not understand why we face certain trials in our lives or why we feel weak at times. I have found it is ok to feel weak, we are not perfect, humble ourselves and come unto Christ and we will receive the strength we are looking for.
