Everlasting Life

    I don’t know about ya’ll, but sometimes all I need is time to rejuvenate. I need to find my core- the place where everything in the universe begins to collide, then connect and make sense. Last night I was frustrated, completely seeing things in from a one- sided point of view, a good old case of the mean reds. In the end, I decided not to post my lengthy spiel I’d written and, now, I am relieved about that.

    At the end of the day, there are always a few things about myself that I wish to improve. One of my most unappealing flaws, is appearing to be overly pious- and to anyone who feels that I do, I’m sorry. I have yet to figure out preach without being ‘preachy’. I technically know what I should do, but sometimes a sassy girl like me can't remember when to bite her tongue! If it helps, I only do so because I truly care.

    Just know that I’m trying to be better. I can't always grasp the big picture. I find myself tangled up in  hopes and aspirations as big as the sky; sometimes they’re things I never imagined I’d want! I want more and more and more and more. In return I see that I have to seek and serve and give more.

    In closing (seriously must be in Church mode for phrases like these to pop in my head), yesterday at institute we came across this glorious, inspiring scripture which has resonated in my conscious ever since.

“Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life.” (3^rd Nephi 5:13)

There is so much more potential to each of us; may we each be able to find the paths we were meant to be on.

    I’m Lacey. I like having fun, kissing my husband and learning more about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
