Mountains to Climb

As I watched this video I realized that everyone has some type of mountain to climb. We all struggle with some type of difficulty at some time or another, I know that no one is immune from pain and suffering in this life and that the Lord will never give us more than we can handle.

This past week has challenged me as I have wondered if I am able to handle everything that has happened over this past week. As I have looked back at what I have been able to do I have realized just how much the Lord has played a hand in my life helping me to find a strength beyond my own. At times I have felt like giving up because times were just too difficult, but I know that as I have faith and pray, that my prayers will be answered, and I will be given the strength I need to endure.

I received a text from a very special friend who is struggling in her own life right now. She shared a song with me that has helped her realize that the Savior is all she needs to get through her difficulties at this time. It is through these trials that we gain a testimony of our Savior and learn that it is only through him where we can find peace. He suffered more than any of us can comprehend and he did it for all of us so he could know how to help us in our times of need.

 I want this friend to know I am so happy that my blog has helped her on some of her difficult days and I want to dedicate this post to her. I also want her to know how much her kind thoughts and words mean to me and how they seem to come on the days I need them most! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
