I was reading Stephanie Waite's blog today.....she is the one who recently lost her baby- I mentioned her blog several posts back... Wow. I find myself checking her blog sometimes more than once a day, just to see what profound or uplifting thing she has to say. I find it ironic that she has the comforting words. She is so spiritually high, I cannot comprehend it. Today, her post made me stop and REMEMBER my word for the year. And it gave me a new purpose. Something else to remember. In her quote, she is talking about her little girl and how she loved watching people:
"I wonder how she must have seen the world and all of us in it through her perfect baby eyes. I wonder if I can ever be the woman she knew me to be -- the woman I was before -- the Queen I am supposed to become. "
"I feel her helping me now to see myself as I was, as I am, and as I ought to be. It strengthens me to know I was a valiant follower of Jesus Christ and an advocate for His plan for us to become more like our Heavenly Parents. "
"We all chose to follow Him. We all were on the same side. The whole human family came here with one purpose: follow the Savior, live like Him, follow His steps of repentance and baptism so we can return HOME clean and pure to live with Him and Our Father again. "
"We lose that vision here. We let life cloud our view. But babies, they are so fresh from heaven, surely they must still remember. Camille must have known who we all were."
"I feel that bit of divinity crying out inside 'Remember, Remember, keep your eye on the Plan. This is all a part of that Plan. Use your agency to draw closer to Him. You are far strong. You are valiant. You are steadfast and immovable in your faith. You are His and He is with you. Live up to who you REALLY are: a descendant of incredibly strong, faithful men and women whose greatness echos in the blood that flows through your veins; a sister to siblings as valiant, strong and faithful as Captain Moroni; a mother to sweet, loving, strong daughters, a mother to an angel, a noble heir and daughter of the Almighty God. '"
"Remember, Remember, Remember"
