The trial of faith
I think, by far, my most favorite scripture this week is Ether 12:6... "...faith is things which are hoped for and not seen; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith". So what does that exactly mean to me? I feel like I somewhat understand and see how this relates to my life. I think for a long time, God has "tried" my faith. And I think a lot of times, I have failed Him. I just have this feeling that He is going to keep trying me again and again, over and over just to see if what I want for my future is really what I desperately want, or sort of half-heartedly want.

It's often so hard to want something you haven't been a part of yet and to try and feel what that will be like. It often just feels like a dream but you move on the faith that it will be what you want and need. Hard trials make us better and i have seen you change a ton this last year...only good blessings can come from such a hard effort....you deserve only the best!
