Thinking

I've been thinking a lot about "stuff" lately. You have those down days when you feel lonely or unimportant. My life is so hard waah waah. I always used to tell myself, "Oh when I have kids, I'll be important because I'll be a mother." This last weekend we had a General Relief Society meeting. President Uchtdorf said some things that touched my heart and made me ponder. He said,

"Sisters, wherever you are, whatever the circumstances may be, you are not forgotten. No matter how dark your days may seem, no matter how insignificant you may feel, no matter how overshadowed you think you may be, your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you. In fact, He loves you, with an infinite love."
—President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

I am important and I am not forgotten. I have a loving Heavenly Father who is aware of me. I have a wonderful husband who loves me and I have a family who loves me! I am so blessed and it's nice to be reminded sometimes that I have worth and I am loved :) IMG_8954

    Seriously, I wasn't able to watch or hear his talk *yet*, but what I have found on pinterest about it, it sounds amazing! It is so true. From what I've read, he made me feel like it was written exactly for me. I loved feeling that way as I read quotes and snippets of it. thank you for sharing@

    What a great post :) Thank you for sharing. It's so easy to get caught up in this world and the lies it feeds us and we forget WHO'S we are. There is a reason Truth is greater than the lies.

    There is also a reason He says that Love is the greatest...

    Get out of my mind girl.

    I've had this same thought process for what seems like years! We are important just the way we are.
