"The lord compenstes the faithful for EVERY loss..... every tear today will eventually be returned a hundred fold with tears of rejoicing and gratitude!"

I read this quote on my cousins blog and Immediately started crying. There have been several events this past week that tears have been shed. Not only by myself but by friends and family as well. Sometimes we take for granted the blessings we have. My family is no stranger to trials. And although I may not have been effected personally this week of trials I have been reminded once again what a wonderful life I truly have. I have an amazing family who sticks by me through everything. I have a wonderful husband, a beyond beautiful healthy baby, and many more countless blessings. But most importantly I have Christ and without Him I have nothing. I am so grateful for the gospel. It strengthens me in ways I never knew possible.

My sister-in-law had the same quote up today. What a great one. I love the gospel- it helps me everyday. Thanks for this post! I'm glad things are looking up (:
thanks for the uplift, I surely needed it today. I am saying to myself every single day of the past 6 months that the Lord will not ask me to bear anything I cannot handle. He has a lot of faith in me lately!
Amen to all that you just said!! We truly are so blessed to have the amazing family that we have. And even more blessed to have the gospel in our lives and our savior and older brother Jesus Christ!! Its through him and family that we get through all of our trial, as we know and have experienced! I love you so much!!
