god knows what he's doing

i found this today as i was looking up some inspiring quotes, and it really struck me; enjoy,
"Heavenly Father has a picture of you on His dresser.
He loves you and will help you. Call upon Him."

the other day i was sitting in my room on the ground doing homework and listening to adele. when someone posted on my facebook wall, since i had my ipod in my ihome right next to me, i decided to check it out. after reading various posts that my friends had written on my wall, i immediately felt overwhelmed with so much joy. i felt so grateful. earlier, i had been struggling with so much. who knew you could feel the spirit while your listening to music.. and on facebook? i sure didn't.

today i was in church and during the opening prayer i started to cry. it was when i had realized my brother, jared would be leaving for his mission in exactly 4 weeks and 3 days. besides the fact that i will finally recieve a well awaited cell phone, i was devistated. he's so close to me, and i'm going to miss him so much. i was sitting next to my mom, and after the prayer she gave me a side hug. i was already pretty emotional, and i started crying again.
in young women's my best friend, daisy said the prayer and tears filled my eyes.
today; i have realized so much. i am so blessed. god knows me so well.

sometimes, your mom can be your best friend. and sometimes you have to deal with those you love leaving you for a while.

but in the end all you need to do is hold on, because god sure knows what he is doing.
