Saturday
Truth confirmed: So many truths confirmed. I am not alone (this seems to be a theme in my life right now...). There are so many people who love and are passionate about the truth that has been restored through a living prophet of God. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was restored through Joseph Smith, and embraces all truth in this world, because it has the fullness. I know that he was called of God. I know that we still have a prophet today. I know that Christ is at the head of this church. I know that if we have faith, we can do the hardest of things. I also had it confirmed that when things are good, and pointing us to our Savior, Satan is not far away. I recognized how he works on me in a specific way. This is good, so that I can fortify my weak spots against him. I know that we have been given gifts in this life to bless our lives, the lives of those around us, and to build the kingdom of God. I need to recognize these gifts and give more time to develop them. This is just a taste of what I was taught today. Good thing learning is an eternal principle...
New friend: I made many new friends at the Nauvoo Pageant callbacks. One new friend, Paul, knows my friend Henry, as they were the same major at UVU: hospital management. Another new friend, Logan, and I have 93 mutual friends on facebook. He told me that facebook has been suggesting we become friends for a long time, and that he first saw me perform as Patsy Cline 2 years ago and was very complimentary. :) It was nice. So now we are friends! It was only a matter of time.
Friday (the last post was thursday night, late enough to qualify as friday...:)
Truth confirmed: Ask and ye shall receive. Remember how I wrote in my post yesterday that I wanted someone to meet me for once? Well, I asked, and I received. This is evident in my new friend. Now, I would love for that to happen in person, but I definately got what I asked for. Wow. I have a Heavenly Father who loves me.
New friends: Nathan. Online. Does this count? Well, when I don't meet someone in person, I say it does. Especially a message as sincere as this:
"Hey,
Names Nathan, and I'm just hoping I don't say something foolish. I'm just trying to make sure I make this a worthwhile message after reading everything you put into your profile.
I'm never sure what to say in these anyway. I'm living in Provo, going to BYU for a masters degree, and not sure where life will take me when I'm finished.
I could ask plenty of questions, but the one in my mind right now is, are you interested in making a new friend?
Have a great weekend,
Nathan" . we have gone back and forth with messages 10 times now. :) delightful dialogue really.
