A great few days

These past few days have been great. I am gearing up to go back to school. Fifteen weeks and I will be thrown out into the real world hoping I have enough feathers in my hat to get hired somewhere. Chiors of angels sing and the villagers rejoice!

Today was testimony meeting and I was so nervous as I talked. I do not know where this came from because I cannot remember being that nervous since I had to share my testimony in Spanish for the first time in Chile. But I do know that The Church of Jesus Christ is the only true and living church on the earth today. Jesus Christ stands at the head and the Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley guides it here on earth through divine revalation. The Book of Mormon truely is another testament of Jesus Christ. It was translated by divine power through Joseph Smith the prophet.

On Wednesday I went country dancing and I saw him. It was strange, I did not feel butterflies or even nervousness. I think I know that I am done with him. It was good to see him and realize it. I walked right past him and didn't even say hi. That was probably really mean and I regret it know. I texted him later and we talked for a little bit. Maybe somewhere deep down I hope he surprises me and realizes what he missed out on.

Today we talked about forordenation in Sunday School. As we talked about some scriptures found in the Book of Abraham I began to think about what it must have been like in the Pre-Existence. Sometimes I wonder what I was thinking when I told the Lord I would do certain things. However, I told Him I would do them because it was something only I could give. Just like there are things in life only you can give.

The Lord knows each of us and he knows our needs. Don't ever give up or feel like you are alone. The Lord may not be able to physically hug you, but he is there. Each child of God is known by name. What a blessing to live and have the Gospel upon the earth at this time!
