thankful, day 7.

the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

every sunday we don't have to attend our church meetings.
we WANT to attend our three-hour+ church meetings.
we have had many spiritual experiences that validate our membership.
we spend our time and energy towards this most sacred work.
a still, small voice guides and if we listen, teaches.

prior to our activity, something was missing from my life. andre's too.
an emptiness existed that we tried to fill with superficial activities & things.
we do not want our children to experience this void.
we want them to know their worth. to know their purpose on this earth.
we want to share our joy and journey with those around us.
the love that Jesus Christ has for us. it is a gift.

good, better, best.
to treasure my membership in HIS church is good.
to gain knowledge and maintain a strong testimony of Christ is better.
to openly share my testimony and succumb to missionary opportunities is best.
