Life

Life is stressing me out. I feel so over whelmed with at LEAST one test a week and homework every night. Every weekend I have a marching band competition or something else going on. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but too much can really become a stress rather than something fun faster than you want it to. I'm sitting listening to MOTAB (Mormon tabernacle choir) by myself. And it is SO soothing. I just want to cry with relief that I know that I am lover by my Savior Jesus Christ and that when the second coming comes I will get to see Him, and it will be a day of rejoicing. I'm thankful for everything I have; my friends, family, home, school, church, leaders, and just about everything else I have! I am so fortunate, even though I am not rich, I do not get everything I want, and I have no fame. I feel great with what I have; scriptures, the one and ONLY true restored church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, seminary, prayer, and temples. Yesterday I had a marching band comp. in Grand Junction CO and I had to get up at 5:00 in the morning and be there at 5:45. It was so much fun during the day except I let Satan get to me. I am amazed with how sly he is at doing that. Well done Satan, but too bad for you, I'm not stupid like you are. I have friends and family that support me and comfort me when I'm down. I was being pestered consistently by someone in the band that will remain unknown, I got sunburnt in my eyes, I had a very painful headache, and I was a bit excluded on the ride home, however near the end of the trip as I burst into tears, I was able to text my sister, and my best friend hugged me with comfort unceasingly. Take that Satan! God will forever protect and comfort His children against you. With Becca getting married now, in the Payson Utah temple just fills me with joy. A new brother! Welcome to the family Caleb :). After all my pains and struggles, I strive to unceasingly thank the Lord for the things that He does give me. Because my blessings, are uncountable.
