2 Nephi 24:3 "And it shall come to pass in that day that the Lord shall give thee rest, from they sorrow, and from they fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve."
Today, I am home in Farmington for the first time in awhile! It is so weird to be home. This is still my home but not my "home" if that makes sense. I definitely am supposed to be in Provo, attending BYU. However, being home is so great. I feel restored and rested. I got to spend time with family and friends tonight--and I just feel so grateful. Though I'm not in bondage, or fearful, or sorrowful--home does bring me rest. The Lord does bring me rest, and has blessed me so much in my life. I'm so grateful for all that I have. Can I just say that? I have so so much to be thankful for. Let me list a few:
1. My beautiful parents. They love each other so much. They are the epitome of service and charity. They are always looking for ways to serve each other and others.
2. My three sweet angel little sisters. These girls are my life. They know how to make me laugh, think, cry, dance, sing. They are wonderful. I don't know where I'd be without them.
3. My amazing friends, both new and old. I love coming home to my friends who are my constants, constant friends that have been with me through a lot. I love spending time with my friends at college, my crazy amazing roommates, my Kaysville boys, and new acquaintances from all over campus.
4. My. Queen. Size. Bed. Ahhhh! Missed it!
5. Last but definitely not least, this gospel. This happiness, this truth, this wholeness. I'm so grateful for the peace and joy that comes from being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
