Exchange No. 10

I mentioned this in my most recent post, but right now I'm thinking a great deal on the love that God has for us. I’ve felt that I could disobey the commandments of the gospel of Christ, or I could abide peacefully in them—He’d love me no matter what. He does love me perfectly, as He does all of us.



I mentioned in my post Letting Go about how scared I am do actually distance myself from the idea of ever having a boyfriend, the idea is terrifying. Since I’ve been mulling it over I’ve come to a few conclusions.

1. This is a decision I’ll have to make every single day of my life.
2. I’ll need to focus on Christ and His gospel instead of the church.
3. I need to learn how to make and keep healthy relationships.
4. Breathe and take things one day at a time.

Am I ready? Can I really do this?

Knowing you, anything you put your mind to, you can accomplish. I believe you can do it.

thanks for your comment on my blog today. I appreciate it. I just read this post and I completely agree with your 4 conclusions...it is pretty overwhelming for me too. Good luck buddy and be in touch.

You are so good at articulating your thoughts. Wow! I am having a really hard time right now and kinda have a slight idea of what you might be feeling (you saw me on saturday). It is so hard at times but you made it seem like it will be alright. Take it a day at a time. That's right! Thanks for your words at a much needed time.

Ha! and I didn't even have to lead you to that conclusion. You did it all by yourself!

You're beautiful, my friend. But just in case you're wondering whether the conclusions you've found are more difficult that the average bear's--they're not. They're tailor made just for you.

As for being ready, I don't think anyone ever really gets to that point, but I know you can do it. You just have to decide if you want to, then allow those who love you to help.
