Thought provoking

Been spending a lot of time thinking, about how to improve myself as a person, become who I am suppose to be, make my outward self match my heart. I love reading good quotes these days. Here are a few I found today that helped me . . . .

I have failed at this one in an area or two today. How much trouble would be avoided in live if each of these were followed! Tomorrow is a new day, and tomorrow I will do better. I will listen, think, earn, wait, forgive, and the one I am best at keep trying!!!

While others have told me I have too much patience, and take too much.

I feel I don't have the most patience, and can always use more.

This, put me in my place, when I want to lose patience with someone, remember how patient God has been with me. How patient He has been to me, to continually extend His love to me, even after I have made choices and fallen from grace. I have a long way to go from where I once was as His daughter, but He has not given up on me. He, and only He sees the beauty within my heart, knows the sincere desires I have within and is willing to wait while I become who He sees me as . . . only He loves unconditionally and waits without stopping for me.  Yet, as an imperfect soul, I seek that love, the seeing my diamond in my rought, and that patience from others, rather than from my Father and my Savior.

This could once be said of me, once there was a time that if someone spoke ill or bad of me, no one would believe it! I know as I strive to become the charitable daughter of God, that this will return. As long as I am living in a way that I am becoming more like my Savior, soon no one will again believe bad of me!

I am grateful for the atonement. I am grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ. I am grateful that He is the power to take our sins from us, heal our flaws, mend our broken hearts, pick up our shattered lives, and walk by us as we face our trails, stumble thru fixing our imperfections, and try miserably to be better people. I am so grateful for my Savior, for His never ending faith in me, even when I cannot find it in myself. I wish I could place my heart on here. I am just so grateful for the Gospel, for my Father in Heaven and Savior being their to love me and wrap their arms around me when I need it most.
