The sun is just rising in my life

The title of this blog post doesn't exactly apply to what I want to talk about. But, I just love the song. It is called "No Regrets" by Chad Neth. it continues to read,
"The sun is just rising in my life
And these are the years
Where I am deciding
And I am defining
The way I will go   
In these moments of my youth
I want to live every day in the light of His truth;
I want to look back on this time
And be proud of the person I’ve been
I want to know that the choices I’ve made
Won’t leave me wishing I could make them again
That during these years my devotion was set
I want to look back on this time
With no regrets"
So today, I want to try and relate this! In young Women we have an AMAZING teacher. Today we had a lesson about scripture reading. We disscussed why we don't read, and how to make it more fun. We also had Ashley share her favorite scripture, which is found in D&C 122:7 "And if thou shouldst be cast into the pit, or into the hands of murderers, and the sentence of death passed upon thee; if thou be cast into the deep; if the billowing surge conspire against thee; if fierce winds become thine enemy; if the heavens gather blackness, and all the elements combine to hedge up the way; and above all, if the very jaws of hell shall gape open the mouth wide after thee, know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good." And it applies a lot in My life. All the trials we think are so HARD! and we think we can never concquer them, just read the scriptures. So, she concluded the lesson with a challenge. She challenged us all to read the scriptures everyday! I don't know if she knows this, but, I do. I have promised myself I will read EVERYDAY, even if it is only one verse! I really loved her lesson and the knowledge she shares with us. I will miss her dearly when she moves. I know Jesus Christ loves me, and I KNOW he answers my prayers. The scriptures truly do inspire and guide me. And I am so grateful for my knowledge of the scriptures.
