Oh that we could live life without these hard trials that come upon us.... but then, I guess we wouldn't grow and become better. I thought about deleting the post about Jacob's upcoming marriage, but it is part of us and who we are. We had a lot of fun, planning and making things for the wedding, but the wedding will not be happening on Saturday. It is one of those hard things in life. Doubts crept in, and they took a step back to think about things. If I delete the post and make it go away, then it is as if I am rejecting the trials that come in life, and not accepting the challenge they bring to help us grow. I choose to grow and move forward. I think Jacob and Sarah Jane choose the same. I hope that we all attain what it is that we are striving for.
"Trials that are not the result of sin can also help you become better. These kinds of trials can test your faith or patience or can teach you about yourself. To use these trials for your growth, ask yourself what you can learn from them and what you can do better." Ensign Magazine
