a good reminder
Remember back in March when I did this? It was a 21-day journey that I didn't take full advantage of. I read the challenges, but never felt like I was super into it.
Fast forward to now, when there is so much going on in my life, my head and my heart. So much more so than months ago when I first did the challenge. Which is why I decided to do it again. To invest myself in it more than I did the first time, to really pour my everything into truly coming closer to my Savior.
And you know what?
You wouldn't believe the results. Everything in my life is so much more wonderful than it was before, because I've centered my thoughts and my life on Christ. Opportunities I have been searching for for many months have finally presented themselves, (hopefully I'll get to post about these soon) and I know it is because of the change I have made in my life.
Today is Day 15: "Be Still." (Each day has a little 'theme')
"Find...the quiet place you can go to focus on the Lord. Make haste and invite the Lord into your home. How will you prepare to receive Him?" (quoted from Emily Freeman's 21 Days Closer to Christ)
I am so grateful for the chance I had to repeat this challenge and to really implement it into my life. It has been such a blessing, and every day I am grateful for that. I think it's been especially wonderful during the Christmas season to purposefully study and focus on my relationship with Christ. I cannot thank Him enough for everything He has done for me, and for sticking by my side and waiting for me to come around. I am so excited to see Him again and to thank Him for never, ever, giving up on me. I am grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and for the wonderful blessings it brings to me.
