I have learned so much as new challenges have been thrown at me. but I have learned that everything we are given is a blessing. Like Lehi says to his son, 2nefi2:2, all of our aflictions are just a blessing, for our advantage. And even if we don't understand this, we can have faith in the words of Nefi. when he says, 1nefi11.17, I know that the Lord loves his Children, but I don't know the meaning of all things. He loves us and just wants to help us develp faith in his Son Jesus Christ, 2nefi2:9

I know he loves us. To put aside all, like Nefi says again in his last words, 2nefi26:24, he doesn't do anything, unless it is to bless us as his children.

Even though we may not understand his will, we can look to someone who did, our Savior Jesus Christ, as he submitted to his fathers will completly, as Abinadi explains in Mosiah 15:7, HE understood HIS purpose here. And we need to strive to do the same, to understand and remember, (never forget) who we are. WE  are HIS children, and he LOVES US. Remember that the things you can count, usually don't count,however the things that you can't count do count.  Look to be like CHRIST. This gospel or better said, this ATONEMENT, is not a burden, like Elder Utchdorf explained, it's a blessing, repentance is a blessing. We can become like HIM. and that's all he wants , is for us to have the full potential to receive these promised blessings, as we strive to become like HIM.

HE LOVES US! AND WE ARE HIS CHILDREN!


AND I LOVE YOU MOM!


the GREATEST FAM of all Time!


YOUR SON, ELDER CLARK
