Paige Anderson @creating.heavenly.homes talks to us about her battle with anger and postpartum. She shares how the Lord paved the way for her to become the mother she wanted to be.
We talk about the ease of accepting the atonement, and how it can seem more difficult than it's meant to be.
Our Father in Heaven knows and loves each one of us individually and can give us line upon line direction to help better refine us.
Our memories of our mistakes and circumstances aren't there to hound us. We are blessed to remember so we can see where we have come from and recognize how far was have come with His help.
Our experiences also pave the way to help others struggling. We can become His hands and outstretched arms to comfort those in need.
That is why I love these lives. I learn so much from each of you. We are journeying together on earth with a supreme creator to guide us and it is usually through each other that our needs are met.

Lee Burdge @thedentsinmyarmor shares an inspiring story of watching her father deteriorate while watching him grasp to his Father in Heaven through his Chronic condition.
She learned so much from her father including grace, patience and so much more.
She tells of a life lesson learned as he was walking alongside a wall. He felt frustrated that the wall was in his way, when his therapist quickly reminded him that the wall was there to help balance him and keep him upright.
We can learn so much from that example. We may see things as roadblocks in our way, but in all reality they are just the things Christ sends us to guide and direct us.
What roadblocks have you felt in your life? Can you look at them in a different light now and see Christ's hand in your life?

Her experiences with PCOS, infertility, cancer, job loss and more have strengthened her testimony.
I love how she mentions that because went through the ultimate hard, we need to go through hard things too to become like him.
He is our exemplar and our advocate through this life.
We talked about feeling broken down and relying on the light of others. Sometimes we are the ones needing help and sometimes our Savior sends us to help others.
I hope you all feel of our love and Heavenly Father's love for you.
You are not alone in your battles. He is in YOUR Story.

His commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ and his desire to have a happy family has blessed his life.
He also opens up about loosing their first born son and the parallels he has grasped to understand the Savior's plan. It's definitely a time him and his wife held close to the Lord.
He has written a book called, Exclude Not Myself. He talks about no matter if we feel we are the exception to God's plan, there is still a pathway for you.
The Savior stands with open arms to receive
you and wants to bless you,
Our Heavenly Father's love is something divine. It allows experiences to strengthen us beyond what we can comprehend ourselves.
Skyler's faith has kept him grounded in the decisions He makes alongside his wife for his family. Faith will build us up when we are feeling uncertain of things to come. Build up your faith and joy will come.

Two near death experiences plus so many more has drawn Markell @simply.stressless closer to her Savior Jesus Christ.
Her stories are inspiring and encouraging.
It is amazing to me that when we are intentional how our hearts can change for the better.
Through our faith, great things can come to pass. Our Lord is ever near when we reach out for His hand.

Kaylee McArthur shares her story of reaching out to her Aunt in a time of need. She was dealing with Axiety at that time, and found out her Aunt had also experienced it as well. The Lord is mindful of us and usually answers our prayers through other people.
He knows and will guide us to those who can uplift and strengthen us. Then, in return will allow us to strengthen others through things we have experienced.
She also talks of her parents divorce and how she navigated that as the oldest sibling of 9 children. She felt she needed to step up, but also found joy in finding the Savior at this time as well.
Our own testimonies will develop as we put in our own effort and draw closer to Christ. He desires us all to seek Him and strengthen our own relationship with Him. As we do this, we will be guided and directed through mortality.

Our first Christmas Live featuring YOU! We pulled up some friends on Instagram Live to share how Christ walked with them this year.
Sounds like a lot of us are encountering change and have been grateful for His guidance this year.
He is the hope and certainty we can lean on when we don't know what's coming.
Thanks so much for joining in and chatting with me.
If you weren't able to join us Live, please take this time to share how Christ has walked with you in the comments. I'd love to hear.
Merry Christmas!

Trust God's timing for you. Erin @seekthisjesusstudy shares her experiences of serving in Church callings and the time table that Heavenly Father outlined for her.
Sometimes we wonder why we are called or why we may be released at certain times in our lives, but He knows where He needs you.
He knows where our hearts and talents can best be put to use.
He will guide us each step of the way and strengthen us along the way.
What has been your favorite calling you've had? Did you feel fit for the job? Did you experience growth and blessings because you were willing to serve?
What was one takeaway from this episode you loved? I'd love if you shared it with a friend. We are here to strengthen and uplift one another.
-
Divine Confidence comes when we know and trust God. He blesses us as we gain perspective through the experiences we go through.
I hope we can all recognize those blessings in disguise. Michaela @simply.striving shared that hope actually means to expect. When we expect those blessings and keep looking for them, they will come. We just need to condition out eyes to see them.
If you are wondering, like we all do, how to instill confidence in your children, look inside yourself first. Once we find that divine confidence in ourselves, we can more easily be that light for our kids to emulate with help from our Savior.
Did you relate to this? You are not alone. We are all journeying together.
Let's open our hearts and share our experiences to uplift and draw closer to Christ.
-
Beautiful words of wisdom from a striving mother journeying with Christ.
Jeannen McLauchlan shares how she embraces growth over perfectionism. She redefined her motherhood, parenting, and adulting roles to ensure she got the help she needed to get through the rut of depression.
She encourages us to start where we are at and embrace the journey with Christ one step at a time.
Our journeys are all individual and you can find peace and guidance as you reach out and share your story. You are not alone.
-
Corri Ann Lazarte shares her journey of grief and continued healing with Christ.
So many things stood out to me including the idea to honor your capacity, connect with your people, and that God is always near. He is willing to listen and mourn with us when we extend ourselves just a little bit more.
We may not be healed in this life, but we can practice healing. Step by Step, Line upon Line.
Give yourself grace for what you are going through. It will be the source of learning, growth, and strength.

Come listen as Karolyn Butler @seekingsofthearts of how her family has been protected and watched over.
Her amazing journey raising 11 children alongside her husband is inspiring and heart warming. They truly are doing a wonderful work.
By keeping and holding true to our temple covenants angels will watch over us and others will be guided to help us.
-
Shima Baughman has a beautiful testimony of attending the temple every week. She is a shining example of what blessings come as we follow our prophets counsel.
What blessings have you seen in your life from attending the holy temple?
Did her experience uplift and encourage you to go more?
President Nelson has said that temple attendance can bless us with spiritual protection, peace, clarity of mind, comfort, rest, miracles, increased faith, and greater love, just to name a few.
We are so blessed to have so many temples being built around the world. Let's utilize them and reap all those beautiful blessings our Father in Heaven has in store for us.
-
So many miracles in such a short period of time... but only after trusting and waiting for the stars to align.
Alicia Wood @_alignacademy shares how her experience on how building this program came to be. She followed through with the prompting to use her expertise and help Mothers navigate and align their values in the tech world.
She urges all of us to look to the Father and the Son for guidance and direction in our lives. No matter our circumstance.
Miracles will come. Just keep looking for them. He is preparing a way for all of us.

Trust God.
Moving forward with faith is so important, but so is giving things up that seemed tight when you are told to HALT.
I have three experiences (that I quickly came to mind) when I felt Heavenly Father telling me to halt.
In each of these instances, I couldn't shake the feeling
to let go of something I felt good about or felt a responsibility to.
But, each time when I listened and retreated that uneasy feeling went away. I came out a lot happier person and more at peace just for following through even if it was hard.
Our father in Heaven is truly mindful of us and will stop us in our tracks if there is something better we need to focus on in our lives or warn us of.
Have you ever had an experience like this? I'd love to hear it.
-
Ashli's journey with Jesus Christ started at a young age attending the Catholic Church.
Although her parents stopped attending, she knew Christ was in relentless pursuit of her. He kept reaching out.
She had many experiences and people in her life that prepared her to make joyful covenants with the Lord within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
She shares beautiful ties with her family and friends and their example in her life. She loves connecting with people.
She is a wealth of knowledge and goodness. I enjoyed learning from her and hearing how her testimony of Christ evolved and continues to grow.
-
Chanelle @chajenbat shares her beautiful experience of how Christ has shown up for her through music.
Music is healing and comforting to the soul.
She attributes her healing to the preparation she did through music and her Savior Jesus Christ.
I loved how she shared of an experience when they were singing the song her grandma used to sing to her. A whole flood of memories came back to her about someone she was so close to. Music has the power to connect us and strengthen us.
As someone who has ADHD, Chanelle's mind is continually running, but she finds peace and stillness as she listens to music.
How has music played a part in your life? Does it provide peace, comfort, and inspiration as it does for her?

As a young widow, @kelseyoldroyd has had her own fair share of trials these last two years. She is holding on to her faith and hope in her Savior Jesus Christ. He has helped pave her way through the storms of life.
From loosing her husband of 15 years, to her son catching on fire, and struggles in between, she shares a beautiful testimony of no one being immune from trials. BUT also knows that with Christ at the center that those trials can become triumphs.
Prayer unlocks the power of heaven. Our Father in Heaven is ready and standing at the sidelines to support and prepare us for all the tackles AND touchdowns to come.
We don't need to fear the unknown because He knows.
Putting faith into action is more than just believing. It is trusting and moving forward with Him.
Kelsey encourages all of us to come to know Christ on a personal level. We need to seek Him so when it comes time to trust Him, we KNOW Him. He will help us overcome and refine us into the person He created us to be.
-
Jill @jilly_mcauley is a bright light sharing goodness about identity and putting Christ at the center of your life.
She knows she is being refined through her trials.
Her accident does not define her. Although it seemed like her identity of being a singer and horse rider was taken years ago, she has come to realize her true identity isn't in the things she does or her achievements. It has always been a daughter of God.
She has truly seen Jesus Christ within her story and knows each of us can too.
