"...The challenges you face, the growth experiences you encounter, are intended to be temporary scenes played out on the stage of a life of continuing peace and happiness. Sadness, heartache, and disappointment are events in life. It is not intended that they be the substance of life. I do not minimize how hard some of these events can be. When the lesson you are to learn is very important, trials can extend over a long period of time,but they should not be allowed to become the confining focus of everything you do.
Your life can and should be wondrously rewarding."
--Richard G. Scott, The Atonement Can Secure Your Peace and Happiness

ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome. Isn't that talk amazing? One of my very favorites. Love you, Ashley! I know we've never met in real life and it may be weird to say "love you" in the blog world. But, I don't really care. Because I think you are amazing and I'm grateful for your friendship, your kind words, and your example to me. Thank you for being the amazing person you are and for being an example to me of striving to live a righteous life. You are incredible. Don't forget it and remember how loved you are!!
