Well I had a pretty good day right up till the end, right before we left the Gardner's from Sunday night dinner a comment was made that has caused me a lot of doubt and stress. I was told that I cuss to much, now I know when I get excited I tend to let a few loose however later when I told Kenna about it I mentioned how this person had also said the would be at the temple for me and Kenna if they can make it,this was no big deal in till I was told that they had already gotten the time off to come. So now I'm plagued with the annoying thought that this person might not feel that I am worthy to go to the temple, I know I have some ruff edges and with time I can smooth them out however I know in my heart that I am ready and worthy to take my family to the temple and I hope all of those who can come and do come do it out of joy and happiness and not obligation. If you doubt my worthiness's or my commitment to the gospel and church you are welcome to that opinion but please don't feel obligated to be a part of something you do not have trust in.
I know the person who said this comment that this whole rant is based on will be reading this and I want them to know, " I love you and respect you and I understand that I come off many way's as rude and unbearable and possibly a little offencive, but it is never intentional I never try to offend or hurt anyone. I'm sorry if I have. "
My favorite scripture so far is Moses 5:9
" And in that day the 'Holy Ghost fell upon Adem which beareth record of the father and the son saying: I am the only begotten of the father from the beginning, henceforth and forever, that as thou hast fallen thou mayest be redeemed and all mankind, even as many will. "

Ya Weird!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fun fun fun
A Day At The Beach Sounds Nice.
people often say things before speaking. It's a common mistake we all make. I would be a little offended myself. Good luck getting past it. I know a lot of GREAT people that have "rough edges" I think that the important thing is that you know for yourself that you are worthy and ready. I have no doubt that you are!!! Keep moving forward! Nick and I are very very happy for you and your family!
ReplyDeleteThank you I really hope you guy's can make it.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I've had to learn, is that you can't be worried what people think. I know we all worry about people's judgment, but they surely aren't perfect either. God knows who we really are. I know I've said things like that and not even known it was offensive to the person. Don't let it get to you. ( I would say you should confront the person instead of making a post about it.) Sorry if this offended you... not my intention :)
ReplyDeleteAs you know all to well sometimes you just need to vent and the blog is a good way to do that.
ReplyDeleteI think this got really blown out of context. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get so frustrated. I love you an Kenna and I don't want any hard feelings. I realize that I assumed things way too much. I hope you two can forgive me and we can move onto a happy time at the temple on Saturday. None of us are perfect and I will be the first to admit I'm not.
