Swim team is over but we had a blast. Here are a few pics from our last few gatherings:
Another friend of mine was relating a bad experience they had when seeking help for one of their children. She was asking for advice since I had been through the same experience with one of my children. My experience was the complete opposite, very kind people, very through, easy to get the program working in my favor. I was so impressed with the whole organization. Again I had the thought that I was blessed because I am keeping the commandments and have the Lord in my life.
I am so grateful for the Gospel. Even the little things that I think are just normal I am realizing how blessed I am and how the Lord really does impact every part of my life even when I don't know it. Don't get me wrong I still have trials but I can tell that my burdens are made lighter through the Atonement of Christ.

"41 And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it."I have had two experiences lately that have helped me realized just how blessed I am to have the Gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. A few months ago I was talking to a friend who had been injured. Problem after problem had set in all without any fault of hers. Little things like doctor's offices being closed, having the doctor give her the wrong diagnosis, complications, just problem after problem. As she related the story to me I thought about her difficult situation and how it could have gone in such a better way if just a few things had happened in the right way. I then had the thought that I have the gospel in my life and because I am keeping the commandments I am blessed that things do go right and I don't have to suffer so much because of my righteousness.
