Week 2 ponderizing helped me get through it. I LOVE praying. I honestly cannot do anything without the help from the Lord. He WANTS me to come to him. He WANTS to help me. I truly felt that he didn't want me to do this alone. I brought Him into my life and made Him the center of my life.
This week, I have a goal to be happy despite burdensome circumstances.
My scripture this week is:
Mosiah 24:15
And now it came to pass that the burdens which were laid upon [Emily] and [her] brethren were made light: yea, the Lord did strengthen them that they could bear up their burdens with ease, and they did submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord.
I was reminded from my sister that we are never given more trials than we are capable of bearing. It seems overwhelming and ominous at times. I literally feel like I am drowning in things to do and expectations to meet of myself.
How can I accomplish EVERYTHING that I need to do when I have no idea where to start?
I know that the Lord will help us bear our burdens. And with JOY! If we let Him help us, we will be able to do so much. And if we can look at our circumstance and see what He has done, then we will be grateful and be HAPPY.
That's all I really want. I want to be happy and I know that despite hard times, I can feel joy.
