Day Twelve

My Oh My, Life! What? Craziness! How long did it take me to get to day 12? Eight days. I'm still trying to "calm the storm". Maybe I should actually read my scriptures, and say meaningful personal prayers. Maybe it actually would help if I would do what this book suggests. So, here I am again. Ready and willing. . .

After reading today's chapter and scripture verses, with tears, I am now writing.

My natural ways do take over so easily. I have gone eight days without reading my scriptures. Eight days when I have felt frustrated by life. Eight days where I could have just sat for a moment and read the message for the day, and been strengthened. And here in Luke 17:19, the message is clear to me this morning. "Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole." Arise Nadine, take on the challenges of life. I can do this with the Saviors' help.

With tears, and much emotion, I am feeling the Saviors love for me. I will reach for Him and ask for his help with all my challenges of the day. I'm so sure at this moment, that if I do this, I will be blessed with peace in my life.

Why did I go eight days without filling my cup, and starving my spirit to death? I don't need to answer this question, I just need to arise and go do my life with faith in my Savior. I know by doing this I can overcome any challenge I face.
