(Catherine and Me at temple square)So President Eyring spoke in conference about recording how you saw the lords hand everyday. Today I was pretty down and I was wishing that I could Talk to my best friend because I knew that would make me feel better. She is one of the only people I can tell anything to and she will understand. And if she doesn't understand she will just listen. (with out any Deborah you are retarded comments)This was one of those stories meant for just your best friend. So I had faith that the lord would take care of things and help lift my mood. I thought it would be by sending me a letter from Catherine (my BFF) in the mail. I ran out to the mail box and there was nothing there. I guess I really don't know the mind of the lord. My whole family had gone to the temple for baptisms for the dead with the youth and I was chilling at home by myself. I was planning to sit at home and mope but then something made me get up and get in the car and drive to institute. No, I didn't have any huge revelations or spiritual experiences but I was out around friends which helped a lot. I even met a new friend that I am excited to get to know! Then I headed home. On the drive I started to think about my other best friend Jared and how I hadn't talked to him in FOREVER! Right as I walked in the door my dad told me Jared had called right before I came in! I immediately called him back and after catching up with him for about an hour I hung up the phone so up lifted and happy.
I am grateful that the lord knows that I needed a kick in the pants to get out the door and friendly banter with a good friend! I'm off to write Catherine a letter.
