It is only my Monday
Well, here we are the second day of the work week and the first day of my work week. It seems like so much has happened in just these few short days.
Let's do the updates:
The Queen has spent the day working on the throne room. The ceilings are white, the walls are powder blue, the counter top is brown not green, and the floor is covered in new tile.
Tall Man has spent the day servicing the public. In fact, he is doing such a great job that he was offered a job with another company while working at his current one. He is excited for the prospects.
Tenor Man is patiently waiting for try out tomorrow. He came home sing "Luck Be a Lady". It is all we can do to keep him focused on other homework.
Horn Man came home late after trying out for the volleyball team. We learned that he made the cut and will now find out on Thursday if he is varsity or junior varsity.
The Princess is busy at school. She is in day two. We are waiting to find out how things are going to be. I am sure we will get a full report later tonight or tomorrow afternoon.
There it is.
The past couple of days we have been reading in Mosiah. Certain verses have been sticking out in my mind. King Benjamin talks about how those who do not keep the commandments will suffer the justice of God, which is living in guilt. A never ending guilt of their disobedience to God. How would that be? I cannot imagine living that way forever.
I have experienced the smallest of small seasons of guilt in this life, compared to that of eternity. Just the knowledge that I am or have not been living according to expectation has been heart wrenching. I find myself turning on myself. The hardest part of climbing from such a pit is convincing myself that I can, that I am worth it, and that the Atonement applies to me as well. I cannot fathom the idea that one would live endlessly without the possibility of getting out,but knowing that they could have.
Think about it. Do what needs to be done now. I know I am working on it.
