Favorite Temple

I just thought I would post a picture I took of my favorite LDS Temple, the Nauvoo, IL Temple. Nauvoo is such a wonderful place where you can meet the most wonderful people and feel the Spirit every day. It holds a special place in my heart.

I have lots of other great pictures of this beautiful Temple, but this is the only one I have here on my laptop at BYU. :)

The first of many

After much deliberation I have decided to join the Blogging world. I'm not sure how frequently I will post, but I promise I will keep people updated. And just a heads up, I tend to ramble at times, so the posts may be very long. I'll work on that. :)

Basically my life goes like this: Wake up early, go to class, go to work, go to more classes, maybe more work after class, go home and eat dinner, do homework, and sleep if I'm lucky. And somewhere in there have a social life, keep up with my amazing Ward and my calling, and get my laundry and grocery shopping done. But I am surviving, and learning so much, not just through my classes but through experiences.

One thing I have learned through my crazy college life is that having the Spirit with me at all times is very important. He helps me stay sane even when I should be stressed. Listening to his voice and heeding his promptings are difficult at times, but doing so brings so many blessings. Prayer is my number one means of communication these days. I pray so much about everything, and it's such a blessing to see my prayers answered daily. My testimony has been strengthened so much as I have learned to pray and listen to the Spirit more each day.
