"The race that is set before us."

Why do I love The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints so much? It really is quite simple. It's perfect!  It makes me so happy and I always find comfort in it. Yesterday I came across a few comforting things that stuck with me.

"...Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us." ~ Hebrews 12:1

 Another great quote is from an article in the May Ensign of 1994. This one, I believe, is the simplest truth there is to know. "Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ live, and they are in charge of this world. They know me. They love me. They have a plan for my future. I will obey the commandments, work hard, and trust in their plan. (Here it is...) Sooner or later, everything will be okay." Ah I love it! Do what is right and everything will turn out okay. Now that is happy.

Well before any readers get worried, life is good! I haven't had any tragic moments or anything, I just love that when my trials do come that I have something to find comfort in. Ok the end!
