Peace in the Storm
This anxiety thing is new. I don’t want to go into details because it’s still very painful and difficult for me to process. And even though the Anxiety level is new, I’ve always been “high stressed”, so much so that my parents used to always repeat a poem about “worry” to me as a young child. The other day I went to the temple to seek for answers. As I entered into the most beautiful room, a painting was directly in front of me with the Savior’s hand stretched out. I physically started to reach out in tears because I wanted to grab it.
You Are Not Of This World
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a CHILD OF GOD. Your playing small does not serve the world…”
Casting Stones
My mind keeps pondering those waiting to cast stones. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the person about to be stoned is a woman. My mind immediately thinks of mothers. Whether through social media, whispers, or in our minds we are waiting to cast stones at other women.
Those Who Seek Him
I’ve been pondering the accounts in the scriptures of those who sought out Jesus. The people who were praying for him, searching through crowds for him, and brought children to him. People like the man who’s daughter was laying sick in bed, Mary and Martha who besought him after their brother passed away, the father who brought his son with a dumb spirit, the two blind men, they all went in faith to find Jesus.
Incorporating Christ Into Your Christmas Traditions
It’s easy to get caught up in the gift giving, stores, and hustle of the holidays, but if we can incorporate Jesus Christ into our traditions we are able to remember what Christmas is about, our Savior’s birth and His life. As a parent, I want my children to develop a love for our Savior Jesus Christ and for his atoning sacrifice. This simple activity is a great way to do that.
Why “Matangi Lemon”
“There’s no lemon so sour that you can’t make something resembling lemonade.” As I’ve gotten older I have come to realize that there are a lot of hard things that people are going through. As a matter of fact, pretty much everyone at some point goes through a pretty intense trial.
