Early in April Elizabeth celebrated her 14th birthday. We celebrated at the Lake House with the rest of the Thornton family.
She is really into "fandoms," Particularly Captain America, Avengers, Super Natural, Sherlock, and Dr. Who. The last three are so popular that they are grouped together and called "Superwholock" by fans.
The last few weeks she has been so incredibly wonderful. She doesn't get as frustrated, she is more patient, more kind, helps her siblings, helps me, cleans without being asked, it is fun to see her turning into such a wonderful young woman. I feel very blessed to be her mother.
“Apply the Atoning Blood of Christ”
Neal A. Maxwell“If I am sufficiently humble, which personal weakness could now become a strength?”"
As I read this phrase I was taken aback. I know I have heard this before, that our weaknesses can become a strength, but really? Could the things I am struggling with right now one day be a strength and not this ever present weakness? I also pondered on what weaknesses I have had in my life that have become strengths. This early in the morning I haven't thought of any but want to keep pondering on what they could be. I have faith that having the gospel in my life for this long would produce weaknesses that are now strengths.
