Find His light

Hello Everyone! Isn't today just a beautiful day?! I have seen so many little miracles today, I can't imagine life any other way. It's all possible because of my Savior! I can learn all I need to do by learning about his life. Today I was reading in the Book of Mormon, which is an ancient record of the people who lived in the America's. It is another Testament of Jesus Christ, and I am so grateful for it!
 
So lately I have been reading about Christ and how I can better live my life so I can be happier. Make better choices, and be that LIGHT that he is to the nations! That is one of his names "The Light". He teaches me that the Light of the body is the eye. So where ever my eye is focused, that's where my light source is going to come. If I am doing evil things then my eye is looking in the dark and I wont be as bright. But. If I change my view to always focus on Christ and his light than I will beam with his love and his light.
 
How do I do this? I mean it seems that it would be really simple, to do all that he asks me to do.
 
That's the thing. It is simple. We make life so complicated. Just as we walk one foot in front of the other each day our choices are the same. If I am praying each day. If I am reading from the scriptures each day, and if I am going to church each sunday I am showing Heavenly Father that I need HIM. He is my number one source. I am showing Jesus Christ how thankful I am for his life, and his Sacrifice, as I live my life. I am honestly seeking the guidance of the Spirit to teach me, and allow me to walk in the path of righteousness! See. We can do it!
 
Now I am not saying it is easy. Life isn't meant to be easy. We wouldn't learn if it was. I grow the most when I am challenged. However, I do know, that the more we pattern our life in the good times, when those hard times come (and they will) we already know what to do.
 
So start now if you haven't and pattern your life after the life of Christ! Study daily and pray always and watch as your light grows. Your understanding will grow, and your days will just keep getting better!
 
I love my Savior! He is my best friend, and my go-to in all that I do. I am able to change my light, and make it grow brighter because of him. I love light. I see so much better with it!
We are so blessed!

Livin the Life

Hello everyone!
 I am a missionary for the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
and lovin life!

I have been serving my mission for about
17 months now and decided I wanted to declare to the world...
well, whoever desires to read my blog,
just how much I love my Savior Jesus Christ.
 
I have been changed, molded, blessed, stretched,
 and have grown more than I can even describe.
But I do know that our
Savior Lives.
I know that He lived a perfect life for me and for you
so we can find peace and happiness in this life,
and Eternal Life in the world to come.
Who doesn't want that?!
 
As I post my feelings about my Savior and the things I have learned
as I have served him this last while
please feel free to ask me questions,
and to share this with your friends!
We are all here to help lift and strengthen each other,
and I hope
that my experiences using my Saviors Atonement
will help you as much as it has helped me!
Stay Tuned!
