This talk really made me wonder and ponder the question Sister Dibb's asked. . . am I as focused in my spiritual things and educating my gospel knowledge as much as I am in school and textbooks. In social life and friends? Those spiritual things, feasting on the words of the scriptures, are the things that are going to stay with me forever even in the next life. They are the things that are most important and should take priority over all other things. Am I making the proper amount of time for them? The great thing about having a merciful God is if we forget to give God that time, he forgives us. He still is there for us, even when we aren't there for him. What a true friend! When our family or friends seem to have turned away, or aren't there, he always is. He is the constant light at the end of the tunnel that guides us in our Journey of Life. He is the voice in the back of our minds encouraging us to never give up even in the hardest of times; to always push forward. I personally can say with full confidence that I KNOW IT.
With this Thanksgiving season coming up, I feel so blessed to have this knowledge in my life. I would be lost without it. I am thankful to have such a loving and caring Father in Heaven who blesses me everyday in more ways that I even know. He sends me so many tender mercies and I could never repay him. I am proud to say that "I LOVE IT!" I love it with all my heart and I know with Faith and with strength from the Lord we will be blessed. This Thanksgiving season I hope to remember all the blessings I have been given and stay humbled in remembering that my Father in Heaven gave me all I have. Without him man is nothing. But we are not nothing to him. We are everything to him! And that is what I am thankful for!
