My New Favorite Scripture

Hebrews 11:40

"God having provided some better things for them through their sufferings for without sufferings they could not be made perfect."

IMG_1279 Today after work, Mom picked up Autumn for me so I could go to the temple. I got there 30 minutes early and was able to just sit in the chapel and read some scriptures. One that stuck out the most to me was D&C 6:14

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, blessed art thou for what thou hast done; for thou hast inquired of me, and behold, as often as thou hast inquired thou hast received instruction of my Spirit. If it had not been so, thou wouldst not have come to the place where thou art at this time.
(sitting in the temple reading this scripture...POWERFUL!)

Anyways, I did a session and while sitting and praying in the celestial room, I received my answer. It wasn’t the answer I was hoping for, but I know that I have to put my faith and trust in Heavenly Father and know that He can see the bigger picture and that He knows what is best for me.

I am so thankful to have a temple so close, and I definitely need to make it a goal to go there more often. As soon as I walk into the doors, I feel the weight of the world just stay outside and I feel complete peace and calmness.

I love that scripture. And I'm sorry you didn't get the answer you were hoping for, but whatever the situation, the Lord does know what's best for you. Call me anytime -- really -- I'm home all the time.
