Sometimes...All You Need Is A Good Movie To Humble Yourself!

So...I just got done watching a movie called "States of Grace". It is an LDS film that shows the human side of members, converts, missionaries, etc. It is a movie that will humble you and make you so grateful for the Atonement that your heart will ache. I cannot begin to tell you how inspiring this movie is. It teaches not to judge. It teaches the true love that Christ and Heavenly Father have for us. No matter what we do...he loves us the same now as if we were still babies. He hurts when we hurt. He DIED for us...so that our sins may be forgiven. How grateful I am for that. Without that...Mark and myself would never return to live with Him in the next life. We try to be faithful and we try to be obedient but we are not Gods...we are human and we make mistakes...sometimes, horrible mistakes.

I encourage you all to rent or buy this movie. It is one that I intend to add to my video library. It is a movie that I want my kids to watch when they are teenagers. I want them to know that the Lord will always love them and always forgive them if they just ask it. My heart is full tonight as I go to bed. Because I know that regardless of the mistakes we make. If we truly and fully repent...we will live with Him again.

Powerful movie. It is entirely possible that I just related to this movie because a lot of the things in it remind me of different parts of my life that I am not proud of. People in my family who have also sinned as I have sinned and how much I have worried about them and their eternal salvation. It reminded me that they can be forgiven as much as I can be forgiven...and we can all have eternal progression with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.

I am so grateful for the Gospel in my life. Times like this remind me of how lonley I was before I accepted what I now know. I am blessed. That is really all there is to it and I need to be reminded every so often. It is good for me.

Sleep well my loves...I will!

This sums it up perfectly!




I stole this from another blog...It sums up EXACTLY how I feel about Mark and Tyce! Both I love more than my own life...And both bring all the love I feel into my life! I love you Mark and Tyce! Thank you for being mine!

Before we met, I wanted you …

Before I found you, I loved you …

Before I touched your face, I would die for you …

This is the miracle of love.

Okay...I think I need to loose a few pounds!




So, today I blew up a couple balloons for Tyce! He loves them! Anyway...Mark thought it would be funny to put two in his shirt for boobs and one for a big belly! Well, of course Tyce had to try too. All fun and games right? WRONG!!

A couple hours later, I was laying on the couch and Tyce was sitting on me. He then pulled up my shirt and proceeded to squeeze my tummy and said "BALLOON"!! Then he did the same to my boobs!! OH NO!! I was laughing HYSTERICALLY and so of course, Tyce was too!!

Mark of course got a kick out of this story and I resolved myself to dust off my running shoes...and FAST!!!

Children will always tell you the truth...you don't even have to ask!
