Life sucks sometimes and I'll be the first one to admit it! I'm sure we have all had those days where we have looked up to the heavens and said, "Lord, just take me now. I don't want to do it anymore." Sometimes it's hard to find the Lord's mercy. I'm constantly confronted with change and trials and things that I don't think I can get through.
I think Heavenly Father has been trying to speak to me lately though. In your last blog you mentioned how the little things can make an entire day better. Along those lines, Brother Christensen, along with my mother, have said that it's all about the voices that we listen to. It reminds me of a song that is near and dear to my heart. "We cannot find our way, Lord help me find my way. There are so many different voices, so many different choices. Lord help me find my way back home." But then it goes on, "Three kings found the Lord, and so can we." How true! We are never alone. We have the Spirit with us along with spirits from Satan, and it matters who we listen to.
I don't know where I'm going with this. I guess, ultimately, I want to bear my testimony. The Lord hears. He wants to help and He will help. We will not get lost if we listen to His voice. He loves us. He loves you, He loves me, and gosh darn it He even loves Cambria! But really. We all can find Him if we look. We all can find Him if we choose to hear His voice. Now, how do we get others to hear it as well?
P.S. remind me to see if i have extra tickets to forgotten carols. i think you'd like it.

How do we get ourselves to hear His voice? The interesting thing about coming to Christ is that it is not a decision that can be made once. The decision is remade every single day, every moment, with every choice we are confronted with. It's hard, and we slip and forget, which is why we need constant reminders. That's why we read our scriptures, pray, and go to church. Not to necessarily learn new things, but to remember.
