I Am His Daughter ♥

I've had such a crazy week! I've gotten really home sick. I've been way overwhelmed with a lot in my life. I love my mom so much. I've called her everyday and she just lets me vent. She is the most amazing woman I've ever met. I miss her so very much. I call my dad everyday as well, it's been really nice having a relationship like this with him. I've always had one, but I enjoy calling him everyday and talking to him and telling him what's going on in my college life and asking for his advice. I love my papa so much. The love I have for my parents just pours right out of my heart everyday and I just tear up every time I think about it and how much they really mean to me.

Anyway (there you go Jess, I typed it correctly! Lol) I've been lacking spiritually a lot lately, and it has definitely taken it's toll on me. I haven't been to church since I last spoke in my home ward :( I miss being involved badly. I went to Institute everyday over the summer. I had an experience when I went to Institute down here in Ephraim and it was about obedience and for some reason, the Spirit just like exploded inside me and I started to cry.. in the middle of class!! Hahaha I instantly thought of my parents and all they've done and sacrificed for me. That kind of Spirit and Love I felt that day is something I've been missing more than anything. I yearn for the Spirit, for the daily scripture reading again, for the praying morning and night, somehow (like attending the Temple once a week) it just dropped on my priority list... But I'm trying to make it back to the very top.

If there's one song that has made me feel more important than ANYTHING in the world, it's "I Am His Daughter" from EFY 2010. It makes me think of Heaven and my dear friend Andy. It makes me feel loved and the Spirit just pours while the song plays. I love this song, and that's what this post is about. Being children of God, and knowing it; believing it; living it; trusting it.

I love this song, and I hope whoever reads this and listens to it will as well. I love my Heavenly Father and I always will. He will always come first in my life. I know He loves me. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
