Today has been a whirlwind of a day. Not only did I go from place to place, but during it all I definitely felt the spirit so strong!
I started of my day curling my hair at o'dark thirty. I have been pinteresting lately and looking for new ways to do my hair, but yet I am too scared to actually follow through with anything I have seen- so I struck to my old ways of curling. I then drove to Lehi to listen to a good friends farewell. He is a complete sweetheart and has always influenced me for the better. The sacrament meeting was amazing and I did end up becoming a little teary eyed. Although I have seen my friends start leaving I guess this farewell was a little bit sad because everyone is back in Lehi while I am here in Provo, but that is okay because that is life. It comes and the future always looks to be bright.
Because I have moved apartments I wanted to go to my church back in Provo which didn't start until 11, just to meet the few new people (everyone else moves in Monday so next week so I will know if I have new roommates by then). On my drive down I received a call asking to play the piano for sacrament meeting. I admit it was hard to come up with songs off the top of my head, and so I went with the first numbers that came to mind. The actually playing wasn't too great, due to the lack of a visible conductor and my first experience actually playing for so many people.
The rest of church was amazing and really spiritual. I felt the spirit so strong. After church I had a meeting with the Bishop and the councilors. I have received a couple new callings and I am excited for the possibilities and challenges the following months can and will bring. My meeting with the Bishop was always good, and I admit I left feeling much better about everything. As of late I have been feeling so down and unworthy, and Satan has just been pounding me with all my insecurities. I went to the temple and decided the best person to see was my Bishop to help me feel better. Upon entering the room it was determined I would receive a Priesthood blessing. As the Bishopric laid their hands upon my head I felt completely safe, whole, and like me again.
After retuning home and being locked out of my apartment due to misinformation from management, I finally had some time to sit down and think about my day. I know the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints is true. "I am all astonishment." The Gospel has done so much for me and I am eternally grateful. Without the church's guiding hands I would fall to the dark world and not be able to stand. So today I am all amazed. I am all astonishment. The church is everything and more!
