Everyday

This post is based on a song called "Everyday by Maren Ord." I wasn't sure what to post, so I wouldn't have much to say. This post will also be short and sweet. If you haven't heard the song before, watch the Video below

If you can't see the Video above, here's the link below

If you have listened to the song, what part did you liked the most?
What part did you liked the most? .. and why do you like that part?
I liked towards the end part the most which is shown as an Image below.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "No matter how far it may seem, I'll always be there for you everyday."

Girls, I hoped a few of you's or some of you's liked that part. That part makes me happy because I know it relates during the wait. It is related during the wait by knowing that you are always there for your Missionary everyday.

Inspire Others

I was surprised by one of my guy friends that he mentioned to me through messages "I've been inspired by you and your virtue." He also mentioned a lot along with that and it made me feel so happy. It was a great feeling to know that it was something that I really needed to hear!

Girls, I hope that I have inspire you all through each blog post, either it helps you for spiritually or helps you in general. Don't be afraid to ask me anything. I will try my best to answer your question. If you are having a rough week or struggling or  you are having a hard time, I can put your name in the Temple Prayer Roll.

I love the saying on the Image below and I hope you all like it.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "to inspire others, you must first inspire yourself."

It is so true. I encourage you all to inspire others with anything. It can be anything! I also encourage you all to think about the following a few questions from the list below.

What does "inspire others" means to you?
How do you inspire others by?

What does "inspire others" means to someone who is around you?
How do someone else around you inspire others by?

Girls, you may ask "how do you inspire others by?"

"Well I inspire others by trying my best to set a wonderful example to them through attending Institute every week, attending the Temple often, attending Church every week, trying to spend some time with Sister Missionaries, and sharing the gospel with non-member friends."

Don't Limit Yourself

This post is short and sweet. I hope this post is helpful to you today.

Girls, I encourage you all to not limit to yourselves because it may feel like that you are not including yourself into activities that you could be missing out on heaps of fun and having memories. Have fun when you can while your Missionary is away. Girls trust me, he should be able to understand the reasons why you have fun and that you are making heaps of memories while he is away. If he doesn't, then I don't understand.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "Don't limit yourself and don't let others convince you that you are limited in what you can do. Believe in yourself and then live so as to reach your possibilities. - Thomas S. Monson."

What does it mean "Don't limit yourself" to you?
I will give you a few minutes to think about it and then ask yourself.
What does it mean "Don't limit yourself" to someone else around you?
You may ask me what does "Don't limit yourself" means to me.

Well "Don't limit yourself" means to me, don't limit myself to do things because I might be able to.do things that I don't expect myself to do and giving new things a go. For having Heavenly Father's help, love, support and guidance each day, anything is possible for me. Therefore, I don't need to limit myself with anything.

Always remember to believe in yourself that you can give new things a go. Start something new that you haven't done before! It can be anything. Don't be afraid! Fight over your fears today with anything!

Satan is the one who makes us to feel fear and sometimes it can be a natural man too! I encourage you all to remember the quote that I have shared with you today!

I Choose To Be Happy

Girls, I encourage you to think about what the Image says and it says "When was the last time I chose to be happy rather than demanding to be right? - Linda K. Burton."

We all have choices to make in this life. The choices that we choose, can make us happy or sad. Always remember this, "It is YOUR CHOICE of how you feel today or this evening. When you are happy, you are deserved to be happy. When you are sad, you deserved to be sad."

Don't hide your feelings away from others who cares about you. There will always be someone or your true friends will always care about you. I know who my true friends are and I am grateful for who they are. I am grateful to have true friends because they have made me happy for who I am, they have helped me whenever I need them for, they know that I always try my best in anything and they know that I always try my best to find time to talk to them.

True friends, you know who you are. So thank you for everything that you were able to do for me and talking to me when I needed someone to talk to. I know that I can think of some more thank you for's but I wouldn't be sharing it with you for this post. I think it would be a very long list if I did.

If you ever need to someone to talk to, I am always willing to listen. I am always willing to care about what you have to say. So don't be afraid to message me today about anything. I will try my best to reply in a response that you would like to hear. I know that can be hard when there are other distractions happening around us.

Do you choose to be happy today? I choose to be happy today.

At All Times, and In All Things and In All Places

I know some readers aren't members of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints which I understand that they may not have a full understanding of who Heavenly Father is. Heavenly Father is God. If you don't know who God is; God is a creator of the Earth, he is perfected and glorified.

As growing up in the Church, I learnt that God is our loving Heavenly Father. I remembered each Sunday in Young Women's, the Young Women's stand up and say the Young Women's Theme outloud. I remembered loving a section of The Young Women's Theme that stood out to me the most which was "We stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places."

If you can't see the Image above, it says "stand as a witnesses of God at all times and in all things and in all places. Mosiah 18:9."

Girls, I would like you all to remember that Heavenly Father does loves you. He knows your weaknesses, he knows your trails, he knows your tribulations, he knows your struggles, he knows your strengths and HE KNOWS WHO YOU ARE!

You can talk to Heavenly Father by praying to him at any time of the day and at any time of the evening. He is always listening. He may not answer your prayers straight away, but don't feel discouraged if he doesn't answer your prayers. He will answer in his own time and when we are ready to willing to listen to him.

If you have spare around 10 to 15 minutes now, I encourage you to watch the Video above that talks about "At All Times, and All Things and In All Places," and mentioned about her story. I loved listening and watching the video. It helps to understand that Heavenly Father is there. If you can't see the Video above, here's the link below

Coming, Keeping, and Working Together

Girls, I encourage you to answer the following questions honestly and you can ask someone else who is around you to answer the same questions about what it means to them.

When you hear "Coming together," what does it mean to you?
When you hear "Keeping together," what does it means to you?
When you hear "Working together," what does it means to you?

I love the Image below, it explains what is coming together is, keeping together is, and working together is very well detailed. I hope you can relate it to those things during the wait. It may make the wait worth it.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success. - Henry Ford."

Has your thoughts changed of the meaning to "Coming together," to a better perspective?

Has your thoughts changed of the meaning to "Keeping together," to a better perspective?

Has your thoughts changed of the meaning to "Working together," to a better perspective?

"Coming Together" can be like saying "You are getting to know your Missionary better, you and your Missionary are becoming a couple."

"Keeping Together" can be like saying "You and your Missionary are keeping each other, keeping each other's company before he leaves for his mission, during his mission and after his mission. You and your Missionary stay in contact with each other constantly."

"Working Together" can be like saying "You and your Missionary can work together by serving a mission at the same time. If you don't go on a mission, you can always try to look out for opportunities to go out with the Missionaries during the day and experience Missionary Work. You and your Missionary can work plans out for the future either through letters or emails or both."

To Be with You

This post is based on a song that I loved, called "To Be With You by David Archuleta." Girls, I am very lucky to know that my Missionary comes home in a month. It is crazy that he comes home so soon and it will be an exciting moment for me, his family, his relatives and his friends. 30 Days until he comes home.

Below is the Video of the song. I hope you like it.

If you can't see the Video above, here's the link below
www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2AHsfytKoE

If you listened to the song, what were your thoughts about the song?
Did you liked the song? If so, what was your favourite part?
Girls, my favourite part is shown as an Image below.

If you can't see the Image above, it's says "And when you're standin' here in front of me, That's when I know that God does exist. 'Cause He will have answered every single prayer, To be with you, just to be with you, yeah. You ...."

Girls, I hope you like that part too while listening. "Can you believe it?" is the question to some girls might ask. "No." is the answer. If you may ask me "Why not?" as response of "No."

My response is "I said no because for almost the last 2 years, I have kept myself busy. I completed around 6 Certificates, I graduated my final year in School and my final year in Seminary when he reached around his 6 months mark. I have been attending the Temple and attending Institute classes often. I have been grateful that I used my time wisely. I hope you all will use your time wisely during the wait."

Girls, I will keep you updated how things goes between me and my Missionary when he comes home. I already know that his mission has changed his life because he mentioned it to me in his first email that he has sent me. I look forward to when I get to text him again.

I look forward to when I get to Facebook message him again. I look forward of being with him again when I get to see him again.

Don't Be Ashamed

This post is short and sweet. Girls, I love how some of the girls has been reintroducing their stories between them and their Missionary. I decided to do it because one of the girls has asked me "What's your story?" I was grateful to able to reintroduce my story to everyone again. I remembered joining the groups within the last 2 years and I already know that I will miss the groups when I leave.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "Don't be ashamed of your story it will inspire others." I know that my story could inspire others by knowing me and my Missionary met at Brisbane LDS Temple one evening that happens to be both of us going to the Temple on the same evening.

Girls, feel free to share your story about you and your Missionary if you haven't reintroduce the story as yet. It would be great to hear all the stories again. I know as for myself, I love reading stories of girls that has been reintroducing their stories about them and their Missionaries.

10 Ways to Love

This post is short and sweet. We may seem to forget the 10 Ways to Love while waiting and it is a great reminder to know the "10 Ways to Love" again. I hope you will be grateful for me reminding you.

If you can't see the Image above, it says
"1. LISTEN without interrupting. (Proverbs 18)

2. SPEAK without accusing. (James 1:19)

3. GIVE without sparing. (Proverbs 21:26)

4. PRAY without ceasing. (Colossians 1:19)

5. ANSWER without arguing. (Proverbs 17:1)

6. SHARE without pretending. (Ephesians 4:15)

7. ENJOY without complaint. (Philippians 2:14)

8. TRUST without wavering. (Corinthians 13:7)

9. FORGIVE without punishing. (Colossians 3:13)

10. PROMISE without forgetting. (Proverbs 13:12)"

Girls, there are scripture references to go with the 10 Ways of Love. If you click the scripture references above, it will take you to the link of the scripture references is found. It will save you time of looking it up.

I think this post will be good for a Family Home Evening lesson, what do you think? If you think it will be a good idea for a Family Home Evening lesson, I encourage you to share it and add more things to it to make it more meaningful.

If there are a few ways that you need to improve on, I encourage you to have attempts to focus on how to improve on the few ways. You can always ask Heavenly Father for help and guidance during the process through personal prayer.  It doesn't hurt to ask him, and it doesn't hurt for you to ask someone else for help as well.

I Love You All

I know times during the wait that you may not feel someone has not loved you for what you are now because someone may say to you, "I miss the old you and I don't like the new you." Remember the Saviour, Heavenly Father, your family, your relativities, your true friends and your Missionary (if it's meant to be) will love you always.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "I love you for all that you are, all that you have been and all you're yet to be."

Girls, it is so true. I may not know each of you but I love getting to know one another. I want you all to know that I love each of you, all that you all have been and all that you all have yet to be. I know some girls has been able to help me by strengthening my testimony while helping them along the way and being there to support them.

Girls, don't ever be afraid to ask me through messages for help because in a high chance, I will be able to help you. I am here to help you. If it's a situation that you are going through and asking me to help you how to get out of that situation, I can help you because it's either that I have been through that same situation as you or I have been through a similar situation than you and I know how to get through that situation.

A reminder, I love you each of you. I would love to get to know you if we don't know each other already. I would love to be friends with you if we aren't friends already.

He'll Carry You

This post is based on a song that I loved, called "He'll Carry You by Hilary Weeks." It may not relate to this Easter Weekend. We all need to remember that Jesus Christ knows how it feels like when we are feeling down, he knows how it feels like when we are alone, he knows how it feels like when we go through heartaches, he knows how it feels like when we go through hard times, he knows how it feels like when we go through trails and he knows how it feels like when we go through struggles.

Below is a video of the song, and I encourage you to listen to it. If you don't have time to listen to it now, I encourage you to try to find a time and listen to the song.

If you can't see the Video above, here's the link below;
www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O1_5HNWiBM

What did you think about the song when you were listening to the song? Did you felt the peace and the comfort while listening?

If you can't see the Image above, it says "He'll bring you peace And leave you hope."

"I would like to share my testimony with you all. I know Jesus Christ knows how it feels like to be me whenever I go through trails, struggles, tribulations, heartaches and it's not a nice feeling. I know whenever I ask forgiveness, peace and comfort through prayer; I will be able to feel the instant knowing that I have been forgiven, given peace, given comfort and that's a nice feeling to have. Don't ever forget that Jesus Christ does loves you, he knows you are imperfect and he knows what you are going through.

I know when you pray, you can feel those same or similar feelings. I know he knows you personally, he knows your weaknesses and he knows your strengths, I know when you allow him to be apart of your daily lives, he will be able to be with you every step of the way. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen."

Coping with Rough Nights

Ask yourself the next two questions, "Am I going through rough nights during the wait for my Missionary?" and "How am I suppose to do to cope with the rough nights?

Girls, I can tell you this right now, "It's normal to have rough nights throughout the wait," and you can even ask the girls who have finished waiting for their missionaries. I have been through rough nights myself and it took me a few nights to realise that I was going through rough nights. When I realise that I was going through rough nights, I thought about some ways of how to cope those type of nights. It wasn't easy at first, until I continually found ways to cope myself with the rough nights.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "Don't lose hope. You never know what tomorrow will bring Good Night!

It is so true. I would like to share with you, of how I cope myself with the rough nights. I encourage you to have some tissues nearby as it may make you cry. Try to stay strong while reading. You are more than welcome to do these things for coping your rough nights.

I prayed to Heavenly Father to ask for peace and comfort. I attended a session at the Temple because I know that it makes me feel peace and comfort a lot. I read a few past General Conference talks based on peace, comfort and love. I think about The Plan of Salvation.

I read my Patriarchal Blessing. I read my scriptures based on the scripture references that my friend Elder Garcia has given me to read each week and scriptures that are based on peace and comfort. I do my own studies on Preach My Gospel.

I hope a few of these ways or some of the ways has helped you to cope with your rough nights. Remember Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ is always listening to our daily and personal prayers.

#BecauseHeLives

Girls, I know that this upcoming weekend is the Easter Weekend. I would like to share with you the message "#BecauseHeLives." This post relates to my blog "Hold Onto This Journey" under the name post title.

If you can't see the Image above, it says "No matter who you are, or who you were, if you seek him, HE IS HERE. #BecauseHeLives. HeLives.mormon.org."

I encourage you to think about that for a minute to a few minutes.
What do you think about when you hear #BecauseHeLives?
I think about some sentences with #BecauseHeLives. It's so true.

He made sacrifices for us #BecauseHeLives.
He makes us to feel peace #BecauseHeLives.
We can live again #BecauseHeLives  He loves us #BecauseHeLives.
He comforts us #BecauseHeLives. He is here #BecauseHeLives.

Those were examples and it is true. I have felt the peace, I have felt the love and I have felt the comfort when I go through hard times, struggles, trails and tribulations. The most comfort that I felt was most when I was crying during some personal prayers and crying because something bad has happened. I always try my best to do what Jesus has done.

In your own time between now to Easter, I encourage you to look up the website on Easter which is www.mormon.org/easter. While you are on the website, I encourage you to watch the video and read about Easter.

That Love Never Changes

When we go through trails, struggles and tribulations, we may seem to forget who loves us. I know that I don't ever forget that someone who loves me when I go through trails, struggles and tribulations. 

If you can't see the Image above, it says "Heavenly Father loves you - each of you That love never changes. - President Thomas S. Monson."

That quote is so true and I know that it would be a great thing for all of us to hear that quote at this time during our wait whatever month we are in. It can be hard remembering that Heavenly Father loves us and that love never changes through daily distractions.

It's like saying "When Heavenly Father loves us, we choose to do other things and he still loves us."

- Heavenly Father still loves us when we make mistakes because he knows that we all imperfect.

- Heavenly Father still loves us when we do service for others because he knows that service can bring a lot of sacrifices.

- Heavenly Father still loves us when we show love for others because he knows that other people can choose to feel the love that has been shown.

- Heavenly Father still loves us when we show sacrifices for others because he knows that some people will appreciate our time for being with them today.

Girls, we all are making progresses each day. It's either making someone happy and cheer up someone who was sad or helping someone by putting their things in their car. We need to know that Heavenly Father encourages us to be happy.
