I'm so thankful for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It is my heart and soul and just the very air that I breathe, and blood that pumps through my heart. I love the happiness, joy, contentment, fun times, Spirit it brings me :) I constantly have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and I've been given that as a gift and it's been an amazing gift! I know I have absolutely no idea what it must be like to not be a member of this church. I love new converts of any kind. When I think of this Church, it's just a warm, peaceful feeling. I feel happy and I truly know the Spirit of God dwells inside of it.
I watched the movie the Errand of Angels, and it was absolutely amazing. I've been wanting so badly to see it so I finally went to the library! I love reading anything about missionaries! I read this book called Turning Hearts and I just fell in love. I read it in one day! Then I read a book called Eighteen Months: Sister Missionaries in the Latter-Days. They're both such great books!!
I only hope to serve a mission some day. I only have happiness and joy when I think of others being brought unto this gospel forever. I can't imagine what it must be like to feel and think you'll never see loved ones again. I just want everyone to be with their families for eternity and to know that God loves them all individually.
Brady will be turning in his mission papers soon. He's finished them, and is now in the interview process. I'm so proud of him :) We've only been dating for almost 3 months now but he's amazing in every way and we both know he needs to do this. I keep thinking about how hard this is going to be and how sad and heartbroken I'll be when we have to breakup. It makes me sad to think that I have to go through that kind of pain again. I hate it, and Brady just doesn't think about it because that won't happen till he goes. He's just so reassuring and calm and comforting it's just almost like he already knows the future. That it's going to be okay and work out in the Lord's way. He's truly been such a blessing in my life and I've loved every moment that I have spent with him! His family is lovely and they're such kind and caring people :) They're hilarious and always laughing about something and I enjoy being around them. They're very welcoming!
I can honestly say I never thought in a million years that Brady would be my "first boyfriend". But he is and I couldn't have picked anyone better than him. Nobody ever thought we'd date. It was such a huge shock to a lot of our friends and some people even thought it was weird. Brady is such a quiet person and hardly ever talked about girls or liked any (at least that us (his friends) knew of). He's just such a great guy :) I could go on and on in this post about how amazing he is, but I'll save that for another time! I tell him everyday how much I love him, and how thankful I am for him and his decision to serve. How proud I am of him with getting his Patriarchal Blessing, finishing his papers, receiving the Melchizedek Priesthood, going to church, reading scriptures, going to the Temple, writing in his journal, praying. He's such a wonderful person and I can't even begin to describe how much this will bless him eternally and how it will help us grow together whether it's as friends, or more than friends. All I know is I love and care for him and I'm supporting him 100% with this. :)
It's going to be a long, very hard road, but I know and feel of it's great worth, and that is something I'm willing to go through just for the reward at the end.
