I really look forward to Sundays. They are the one day a week that my family gets to have, to enjoy undivided time together, and go to church and be spiritually uplifted. Today, I was able to go to choir and sing and practice for the Christmas program coming up in a few weeks. I love singing Christmas music it has such a joyous feeling. There is no better way to bring the spirit than through music. I love singing about our Savior and his birth and how wonderful it is that he came to this earth to be our redeemer. He set a perfect example of how we should live our lives so that we can return to our Father in Heaven and be Eternally bound to our families through the plan of Salvation. I can't imagine my life without the knowledge of the gospel, without knowing that life goes on after death if we follow our father's commandments and teaching and live our lives in a way that is pleasing unto God. My family is so important to me, I want to live my life in a way that makes me feel that I have done everything I possibly can to set a good example.
When I was in relief society today, we talked about what brings us joy and how we can bring joy into our lives? Joy can be different things from day to day. Sometimes we have days where we can think of things that bring joy and the list goes on and on, other days we struggle to find joy because of trials and hardships and events that happen, but the wonderful thing about an eternal perspective is that we can look forward to a perfect life if we do all we can here on earth to live worthily.
I'm so lucky to have a sweet husband and 3 little children: Marissa 6, Aubrey 3, and Colton 10 months, who truly are the best example to me, I love them dearly and they bring me joy.
