Just "Have A Little Faith"

Ok, so as I mentioned in my earlier post, I have no idea what I am doing with my life. I thought I was going into Exercise Science and now I have no idea if that is what I want to do. Yesterday I was thinking, "good heck, am I the only one that doesn't know what they are doing with their life?" Then I went to church and of course that set me straight. In Relief Society they gave the lesson on President Uctdorf's talk from awhile ago called, "Your Happily Ever After" It is an amazing talk. It made me think a lot about my future family and especially my daughters (if I have daughters...). Then in Sunday School my mind wondered and was thinking about things that I need to work on and Personal goals for the week. Sacrament Meeting was great. I love Fast and Testimony meeting. I think that people are truely inspired to get up and say exactly what I needed to hear. A lot of people talked about the stresses of their lives and how they don't know what they are doing and how they are just having faith in Christ and that they know that things will work out. One of the girls talked about the word, Becoming. She siad that that word has helped her put things into perspective and how we are constantly trying to figure out who we are to become. I loved it! It made me think a lot about what me and Taylor say to eachother, "Have a little faith." We say it randomly all the time and I don't often think of the meaning of it, it's more just something we say, but as I was thinking about my future, I know with out a doubt that that is all I need, just a little bit of faith. If I can do this, I will know that Heavenly Father has a plan for me and that I will slowly but surely become who he wants me to be. It is by that little bit of faith, that I will be able to have patience with the Lord and with myself and so I can figure out the direction my life is going to take. I am so grateful for that little experience I had. I am grateful for the spirit and the promptings and insights that I have received throughout my life.
Taylor and I went to the CES fireside last night. Elder Quentin L. Cook spoke. It was really good. He talked about the concerns he has for us as we are living in the world. The one he focused on a lot is wearing a mask. He talked a lot about just being YOU! You don't need to hide who you are, just live the standards of the church and let your light shine. This is also something I needed to hear. I never where a mask, but sometimes I don't let people see who I truely am because I get nervous about what they will think about me. Which is really lame! I one day want to become a person that can just show who I am at all times, to be outgoing and share what I know with everyone! Anyway, Great day! I love Sundays!

The Past Couple Months :)

Wow! I knew that I would be bad at this whole blogging thing! A ton has happened over the last couple months! To start off, I don't know what I am doing with my life! I have no idea what I want to be or anything. Right now I am just going with the flow. I need to hurry and decide though because soon I am going to have to register for Fall semester! AHHH!
I quit Charlie's at the beginning of February. I was working way too many hours and not having time to do anything with my life. I am now working at Valley View Granite only on Tuesdays and Saturdays. It is so nice. It has completly opened up my nights to doing homework and just hanging out. I absolutlely love it. I am not getting as much hours but I am getting paid way better, it is great!
I have started dating Taylor Palmer. He is an amazing person. He makes me laugh, we can have great serious talks and moments where we can just sit and relax together. We have spent tons of time together and I have loved every minute of it. We went on our first date in the middle of January. I was really nervous and was for sure that we wouldn't go on another date. He came into Charlie's later that week and came and talked to me and said we should do something again sometime. He ended up coming over Saturday with Harley(his friend) and playing games and watching the Jazz game. We have done a lot over the last couple months. We have went shooting in the dark, watched movies, went sledding, snowboarding/skiing, went to lunch a couple times, hung out with my fun family and went on multiple tours of Logan. He introduced me to Pretty Little Liars and so we have watched that the last couple of weeks and have started watching One Tree Hill together. I have loved it!
I am loving my second semester. I love my classes and I just love college period! I have met a lot of new people and learned a lot of new things. I found out about a month ago that I have Celiac. It has been really difficult at times. For awhile, all I would eat was chips and who knows what. But I have learned more about it and I guess I will see how it affects me in a couple weeks.
I had to speak in church last Sunday on Patience. It was a great learning experience. I stressed about it for the entire week but it was a great topic for me since I am constantly working on having patience with others and with myself. I am truely grateful for the gospel. I don't know what I would do or where I would be with out it. It has been a huge blessing in my life. I am so grateful for my family. They are such amazing people and I love them so much. I am so grateful for prayer. I know that Heavenly Father knows me personally and will help me with whatever experiences come my way. I know he knows what is best for me and that he knows the desires of my heart. I know that everything happens for a reason. I am so grateful for everything in my life!
