My heart is so full right now. This past year has been full of enlightenment, growth, and progression. I have seen changes in myself and in others.
It's beautiful to me. Seeing how people can make so many positive changes in their lives. I see people in my life (as well as at times in my own life) whom have been so consumed with pride, despair, and doubt, and I have seen them have a "mighty change of heart". They become full of faith, hope, and joy. It's amazing. It's beautiful. It's Possible.
It's such a beautiful thing, I know I keep saying that, but it really is. I am so grateful for their strength to make the changes which aren't easy. To completely turn their lives around so they can experience life to the fullest. I am so grateful for their new views on life and their testimonies of the Gospel. It helps to strengthen my own testimony.
It takes so much strength and courage to realize that we can't do this on our own, that we need the help and love of the Lord and Heavenly Father to get through life, to overcome our weaknesses and to get back on the path we are meant to be on.
The Atonement is such a beautiful thing, because Christ came down to this earth and died for us, it is possible for each and everyone of us to have the opportunity to return to live with him again, to have the opportunity to experience Everlasting Happiness.
That is something each and everyone of us is searching for, and there is an answer, it is the Savior, Jesus Christ.
It is through him and his loving hand that we are able to experience joy.
And for that I am eternally thankful.
