Rebellion and Inspiration

How is it that our Heavenly Father has sucha perfect love for us that He can still be there even when we are being dumb? He still gives us glimpses of inspiration to guide away from the crappy path we are on.

I went to the temple and as I sat there I realized I am not happy with the person I have become. Once inside of me was a gung-ho return missionary ready to continue changing the world. As I sat there I wondered where she had gone.

So much of my natural person has come out and I have to rein her back in. As I sat in the temple I told myself that I wanted to be the girl I was nearly three years ago. There are choices I can't take back and I will have to live with that. But I can still change and become a new creature.

The things that have happened in the past can't happen again. I am giving them up for something far greater.
