As a member of the church there are times in church when you are asked a question and the answers are "the Sunday School" answers. These are answers like, read your scriptures, say your prayers, go to church, go to the temple, etc. While many people may dismiss these answers as boring and easy I find great joy and gratitude in doing them. Sometimes I am better at doing these things than others, but I can guarantee that when I am doing them my life is so much richer and I am more blessed. Today as I read the scriptures I soaked up every word. Our world is getting more and more wicked and it is scary to live here...unless you have the scriptures. The scriptures bring hope that as long as I follow God and repent of all my trespasses I can rise above the sins of this world. I can remain clean and pure and live with God again in His goodness and light. I pray that we can all remember this and remember to be grateful for the scriptures and prayer. We have lifelines to our heavenly home. We should be using them.

Do you know what I love about the scriptures?...is that most of the words recorded are words of comfort and hope and joy written most times during a great war, battle or struggle. Written by people who were struggling through trials beyond what we could imagine, yet their eye were still "single to the Glory of God". Makes me appreciate and love the scriptures so much more! Thanks for your extensive gratitude journal. I am happy to see you reach such a wonderful point in your life to be able to recognize these blessings in so much detail.
