Eternal Companion

Dear Eternal Companion,

I often spend time searching for you. I know you're out there and will hopefully meet you soon. Its possible we already have met or crossed paths. If there is any question I would want to ask God is where you currently are??? He may have even told me but, I didn't listen. Someday when I figure out my life maybe He will let me find you and take you to His house. I hope that time comes sooner than later. Im excited for the amazing kids that we will raise together. For the many service hours that we will do together to better the world around us. Im excited to be able to support you in the church callings that the Lord will give you. I promise to pray for you every time I fall to my knees. You will be the light of my life along with the kids that you will give me. I working on investing in our future as I attend college. Im not perfect and I want you to know that. I have so many things to work on but, I have a good heart and I try to do my best. I may not be the smartest or most handsome but, I will give you all that I can.

Your Future Husband,

Jake

The Heart

An organ that is so vital to life. We often associate it with love. The reason being I think is because love is essential to life. Everyone wants to feel loved. There are many kinds of love: family, friendship, and relationship love. Love is usually learned as we grow up in families. Our parents teach us what love is and how to show love. Love can be very much a feeling. Its hard to explain where it comes from but, all of us can feel it. The mind doesn't always agree with the heart. Sometimes we are torn between what our minds tell us and our hearts. Sometimes things make logical sense to us but, in our hearts we can tell something is wrong. I have often felt this struggle especially when it comes to making decisions. To make things difficult the Holy Ghost will tell us the truth of all things in both our heart and our minds. The Lord requires that we study things out in our minds and ask him with real intent. I feel like the Holy Ghost can give us answers in a way that is personal to us but, it often comes to me as a feeling in my heart. I struggle to understand what my heart tells me sometimes because it doesn't make logical sense. I'm a person that does things when they make logical sense but, also feel right. Often this results in a stand still because I don't know what to do because my heart tells me one thing and my mind says another. There are many questions that won't be answered because the Lord trusts us to make these decisions. I know that He will help guide me but, I can't help but feel lost sometimes.
