Great Day!

Wow!  All of our meetings on Sunday were just exactly what my family needed to hear!  It is so awesome how you can go to church and feel like everything was directed just for you.  I feel so blessed that we are in the ward we are in.  I know that the words we heard yesterday were for us and I am so glad I was there to not only hear those words, but to receive the comfort they brought.  Our family is going through an "interesting" time right now and I am so glad we have this gospel in our lives.  As a family we have been studying the scriptures, not just reading them so we can say we did it, and having family prayer each day and it is unbelievable the difference it has made.  I am so amazed at the difference these simple thing can make, and saddened that something so drastic had to happen to get our family back on track.  Britt and I are really trying hard to make things work, we made a covenant with our Heavenly Father and we are doing all we can to honor that.  So please continue to keep us in your prayers, they are a strength to us.  As insignificant as our family is compared to the eternities I know that our Heavenly Father wants us to honor our covenant and that we can be so much more when we are together.  AND, if your family isn't attending ALL of your meetings, having family home evening, studying their scriptures and having family prayer EVERY day I am hear to say:  JUST DO IT!  As simple as it seems the blessings are GREAT!  and consequently if you don't do those things your life slowly starts to fall apart.  Let our mistakes be your inspiration to make your family stronger.
