I am just so grateful for the daily miracles and interactions with Christ over the past month or so. His presence has made such a positive impact on my outlook of life lately. I feel like he has truly just taken the reins and has led me down a fruitful and prosperous path. I've fought for many years to keep the reins in my care and control. I've fought until I was so tired and weak that I had two choices- curl up in a ball and quit or to turn the reins over to Him. He has embraced me in His arms of mercy, comforting my heart and whispering to my mind, that I am his dear child, that He promises he will take care of me. He reminds me of all the times that he has taken care of me and finally I can see it. Finally, I trust in Him enough to just LET GO.
"As He surrounded you with His loving embrace, the Spirit sweetly reminds you of the time before your birth. He held you gently, whispering loving words of assurance, "I will not forget thee, nor forsake thee. I will not fail thee . . ." And then you were born."
For this new year I hope that you all will come to know the Savior personally in your lives. I hope you will feel his presence and see his kind acts of love and support daily. He IS real. He IS there. He IS our master our salvation. He WILL NOT fail you.

Shauntell,
Thank you for that inspiring message. I know that I have to keep reminding myself to let Him hold my reins. I hope you and your family had a great Christmas and a wonderful new year.
WOW I have missed your and your inspiring words. This was awesome and always a good reminder. I have been reading up alot on this topic and have found some great articles. Then read this. I love it.
I'm glad you posted that! I have a tendency to want to do things on my own, and it isn't until I'm way over my head that i realize, again, that I can't do this all on my own. That i need His help and love in my life! Your so right about just letting go, and trusting that He does know what is best for us!
