lately, Hunter and I have had a lot of decisions to make. most of them not being able to be made until other things fall into place. as time as gone on i've been able to feel the spirit whether its directing me or whether its letting me see what the Lord has blessed us with. things may come up unexpectedly (such as completely changing our plans of when & how we are going home from NC) but the Savior knows as we follow the spirit, the blessings that he has in store for us + our faith, will be showered upon us. I can see the blessings and feel the love of the Lord for us. He is so aware of us, more than i can comprehend.
i was able to meet an adorable family and help them out by being their nanny for their two twin girls, we are able to live with hunters grandparents for a little while until we find our own place, hunter just got a full time job in utah, i have the opportunity to go to school and get my degree + work part time at a job that i love, we get to live by our families again in a month (YIPPEE), our marriage gets nothing but better and stronger every day (thanks to our loving Heavenly Father who brings us closer together) and many more tender mercies.
yesterday in church the teacher said something along the lines of...always be thinking to yourself, "what would the lord be having me do right now?" even if i have had my schedule planned out since the day before. what am i willing to self-sacrafice to do what the lord wants me to do?
one more cool thing that i learned from the sunday school lesson is that although we are asked to sacrifice all that we have for the gospel, the one thing that God will never take away from me is my temple marriage. He may have me sacrifice other things for HIM, but he will never take that everlasting, eternal marriage from us. i will be with my family forever, that i know is true.
be ALL IN. [Acts 9:16]
