Everything I Am

Sundays are an interesting day for me. I spend my Sacrament meeting managing my children. Following Sacrament meeting I spend the next two hours managing more children as I serve in the Primary. So I am always very thankful for choice bits of truth that pierce deeply into my heart.
I have already posted this on facebook so this is just a little more of the story.
As I sat in the chapel while the Sacrament was being passed a soft awareness come into my heart. A childhood friend that I haven't seen in some time was visiting our ward, as I sat there I realized that I was not different than I was as a teen or even as I was 3 years ago. I am simply and completely a child of God. He does not see me as married or divorced, old or young, strong or week. He simply sees me, His daughter.

In this life we will never know who we are until we learn to see ourselves through the eyes of our Heavenly Father. It is only at this point that the whole world opens to us and we not only see ourselves for who we truly are, but we also see those around us for who they truly are. Although I have understood parts of this concept for some time it is still difficult for me to implement into my own life, however I know that this is a process. I am slowly and surely being rewritten.
