Oh, the places you'll go...

I know I know. I know what you're all thinking - "What the?! She already has a post with the SAME TITLE!!" Embarrassing, right?

Maybe a little. But it's funny how a children's book seems so relevant to my life right now! For the first time I have NO idea where life is going to take me. & by life I mean God. Obvi. I literally am just taking it a day at a time. Of course, I know I have to make my own decisions, too. Like I've said before. However, sometimes there are SO many good things to do, one feels like, ahem, pulling out hairs to try and make a decision! Okay- that's a little dramatic. I don't really feel that way at all. However, I do feel like even though I've made a decision, I still have so much more to decide before I follow through with that decision!

Alright, for those of you who aren't following AT all...sorry about that. Those of you who know me? - you understand. For the rest of you, I want you to know this, because I think it's important. & obviously if I think it's important, it is - right? Ummm...

SO anyway, I want you to know this - I know God lives. I know this because I've seen Him manifest Himself in my life in so many different ways. I don't always say my prayers twice a day. I've gone for months, sometimes even years, without opening my scriptures to read them on my own. But despite all of that, Heavenly Father still loves me! He has inspired me, or inspired others to help me, make big decisions, and little daily decisions, that have helped me become who I am. While I know I still have much to become, I know I can get there, because I know I'm not alone. I know I have a Savior who sees me not for who I am, but for who I will become. To Him, I'm not not on the journey, I've already reached the destination. I know I have a Heavenly Father who sees me the same way. With this knowledge, I know I can move forward with any decision, any challenge thrown my way. For "If God be for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31)" I want you, whoever you are, to know that I know that is true. & it's not just for me. It's true of everyone who has lived, will live, and does live on this earth. That means it's true for you, too.

SO...in closing, when life gets you down, you know what you gotta do? - yes, keep swimming. But in addition to that, remember Heavenly Father loves you. &  remember this - You have places to go.

Um...

 So...

...I was going to get on here and have a little venting sesh, but I changed my mind.

So instead I will say this - today was a great day! I spent most of it at the beach with some fantastic people, and finished it off with family games at the park and a glow in the dark dance. Most excellent.

Well...big gulps, eh?
