A few months ago I really felt like I should start a blog...I was working on my major weakness of anger and thought journaling/chronicling(?) my journey and experiences would be helpful for me and maybe for someone else out there. But then fear set in and I kept thinking, who would want to listen to me? So then this "weird" journal would be out there for anyone to see! What was I thinking?!
I say it's funny, but I don't mean comical, when I say "it's funny how..." so here's the next part, it's funny how hindsight is 20/20 when we look back and see how the pieces all fell in the right place in the puzzle of our lives. A few months ago I came across an article about a book that talked about how Satan uses fear as a manipulative tool to keep us from doing something good in our lives; like starting a business or a blog - it's a good thing Heavenly Father wants us to do, but Satan uses doubt and fear to keep us from doing it. So in the past two weeks or so, I keep getting this prompting to write in this blog about the spiritual things in my life I'm noticing. Then two Sundays ago the Relief Society lesson was about keeping a journal. So, hence the title of this post, when I come home from the Adult Session of Stake Conference and I can't get this off my mind!
So An Earnest Endeavor has come to fruition. I don't know where this blog will lead me, but by small and simple things great things come to pass, right? Right. I really need the opportunity to talk about the lessons I'm learning in my life, the trials I have, and the wonderful blessings. I love gospel centered discussions, it helps me remember our Savior day by day, and helps me process and ponder the things I'm learning. So will you join me? We could have fun :) and learn something from each other.
Hope to chat with you soon!
Signed,
Sarah
