He is the Gift – Christmas Video – #ShareTheGift

By -


This  couldn't be anything but grateful for Christ and every thing he went through so that we could eventually be perfected. I am so blessed to have a Heavenly Father that cares so much he would give up his 

 only 

 begotten

 son. 

Christmas is not about the presents, the shopping, or the money... It is entirely about reminding us how blessed we are to be living Heavenly Father's plan and to be experiencing this life. 

Our life is rare and beautiful and we must embrace it, embrace the time we have here and embrace the opportunity we have to prove to our Heavenly Father that we are worthy to return to him. And once we do that, he will welcome us home with loving arms and it will be like the feeling you get when you see your family laughing together at the end of the night, only greater.

We are so blessed. Remember what Christmas is really about and share this video. #ShareTheGift

An English Breakfast

if i made a list of everything i learnt on my mission, it would never end!  and if there is one thing i learnt it is that my mission is never over. we are all serving a mission here on this earth! and we all have purpose and there truly is a plan. i think if there was one easy guide or solution that i have learn, like the trick to this mission is best explained by a little parable... because i love and miss england i will describe it by thinking of a full english breakfast. you have your eggs, toast, beans, tomato, sausage, and your bacon. lets think about the chicken and the pig. whats the difference between them?  well, the chicken contributed to the breakfast & the pig gave everything!  so how does this apply to us, to me? i have learned a lot recently about the power and importance of aligning our will to the will of our heavenly father. so often we want so badly for him to grant our every wish and every hope. sometimes it doesn't work like that. he knows w...

The Painting; The Reminder of Who I Am.

I love art. I love that art can be expressed in writing, in dancing, in music, and in pictures and paintings. Art is my safe haven. I first learned to turn to dance. Dance was my outlet, my therapy, its where I went for healing. Dance is amazing alone, but the part I loved the most was finding a song that spoke to me, the spoke the things I was feeling AND THEN creating movement to double express what was deep inside. Dance and music is what got me through junior high and high school. Its what helped me cope with my moms divorce. Its what motivated me to keep going. Its what made me believe that regardless of my circumstances and trials, my life is MINE. Its what helped me to stand tall and be different even when I was alone. Dance was my best friend when no one else was. Dance was my everything.  April 2015, I had to leave my dance competition with only 2 dances left to perform to go to the emergency room to get an emergency procedure done. For one month after that I couldn't...

The Idaho Convert

    My Stake President, President Sponenburgh was sharing his conversion story the other night and he said something I really liked, because I know it's true! He said, "Before I actually received the message, God was preparing me to receive the message. I would drive in my car and think about Jesus Christ for no reason and I didn't understand it until it happened." That's what so cool about the spirit of missionary work, EVERYONE can be compared to a seed and every seed is at a different level, but in order to grown into a big tree the seed has to be well prepared!     Growing up I found myself questioning and thinking about the Saviour very often, probably more than an average child would. I know now how much God prepared me to receive his gospel.   I remember when my sister and I were playing in the trailer park, there was this rock hill over by the train tracks and we would often sneak away and play on this rock hill. Those moments I spent on that h...
