What's a woman to do...we go to the temple, praying about some very specific things and what does the Lord do, confirm the things we are praying about, thankfully, but do nothing but prompt me I need to have another baby and soon! Doesn't he know I'm in weight loss mode? I'd like to enjoy a thinner body for at least a year...but no, that's not in the cards, and surprisingly, I'm ok with it. I'm so thankful for the temple and the solitude and peace you can feel. I started crying during the session because I'm so grateful for my Savior and his ENDLESS amount of love and grace for me. I am so undeserving of it. The temple provides so many blessings if I just tune in and tune out the unimportant things. I'm so grateful to have a worthy companion, that I LOVE, there with me, trying and striving to do what is right. What did I do to deserve this? He is a great father, and an even better husband and companion to me. He isn't perfect but is in so many ways. I love you Jordan. I love our boys. I am so thankful for the gospel that has given me so many blessings. The Lord will provide every needful thing... a new car, probably not. A loving family that is not perfect and striving to do what is right, yes, he will provide me with that. Sorry for the ramblings, my heart is full and so thankful for what happened today in the House of the Lord.
How wonderful to feel the spirit guide and direct! It is funny when you feel you need to do something, even if you're not ready yet.
ReplyDeleteHave fun baby-making!!!
Natalie, thank you so much for sharing this. It was exactly what I needed to hear today! Isn't it wonderful how the Spirit works in one person's life and sharing that in turn speaks to someone else. And like Katie said have fun baby-making!
