Balance

Hi!!! so it is a BEAUTIFUL Monday, it has made work all the nicer since I was out and about on the job.

Here is the thought of the day given by MEE. Balance. She starts out by asking you to imagine a scale and on the one side stack up all your frustrations. I tried this exercise, and the stack was HIGH! Lets see, my lack of patience, work, the fact that I am STILL single, the frustration with myself for not being able to overcome flaws, oh the list goes on...and on. But here is the kicker she then asks you to put the Savior on the other side. And honestly no matter how hard I tried, I could not alter the image of the Savior making everything balance. As MEE reminds us He "reaches our reaching" and where we lack, after our most devoted sincere efforts, He makes up the rest. The Savior knows all of our frustrations, all of our pain, as well as what behaviors we need to change, and what areas we need to improve in, not only does He know it, he has experienced it first hand. The beauty is He also knows our hearts, our intentions, and all of our wonderful talents and strengths. If we allow Christ to work in out lives, truly accept his role as the Savior, we become whole, his love and mercy completes us. Gives us the ability to change, and the strength to start over, if need be. I am so thankful for my Savior, I have needed his forgiveness and love more times than a little, and know that through HIm and by Him I can be a little better each day.

As MEE asks....What are your thoughts?
