Back from vacation, I love the Gospel

I wish I could take a break without having to come back to chaos. Monday morning was chaotic. But now it's Wednesday and I think I got most things under control. We had a good time in Moab. It was warm and we got some sun. I love the landscape there. It makes me want to paint again...which I haven't done in a while.

We also got to listen to General Conference this weekend, which was inspiring as usual. I'm so glad we have a living prophet and apostles that speak to us today. When I listen to them I know they're called of God and that this is His church, as He organized it when He was on the earth. I'm not sure what my life would be like without the Gospel but I know it would not be as near as good as it is. I'm not perfect BUT I am very happy and I have a very happy family and I attribute it all to the Gospel. The Gospel doesn't immune us from struggles- trust me, we've had them. But it does provide a perspective and peace that we otherwise would not have. It teaches us there is life after death, that families can be sealed together forever, that we are meant to be happy, that God loves all his children and wants us to return to Him, and that we all can return by obediance and through the Atonement. I am so grateful for this knowledge.
