Life is incredible. It is always nice to have one of those moments that makes you want to jump up and down and giggle. I had one of those moments last night.
I found a old friend on facebook last night. Not only did I find her but it turns out that during the time I "lost" her, she has joined the church. It sounds dumb, but I am completely giddy. I am so excited that she has found the gospel. I am so happy for her!
I truly know that this gospel is the gospel of happiness. It brings joy to my life and to those around me. As I tried to fall asleep last night, I realized that the gospel is all about love. Service is love. Obedience is love. Charity is love. The Atonement is love. It doesn't matter what we look at in the church, it is all based upon love.
That is really what is missing from the world. Love. I firmly believe that if we taught people to raise healthy families that much of the hate and hurt that happens in this world would go away. If we all really loved one another, there wouldn't be wars. Love heals wounds.
Last night, I felt the love of many of my friends and relatives and I realized that there is not reason for me to ever feel lonely. Besides my family and friends, there is always my Heavenly Father and Christ. They know me better than i know myself. I just need to remember to put my faith and trust in them. They will lead me down the paths I need to go.
I guess the point is that faith and love change lives and make the world go round.

All you need is love.
Love. Love. Love.
Love is all you need.
aww, I liked this entry. It's not dumb to be giddy about your friend! It's always wonderful to hear good news like that. Reminds me of how I felt when Kat was baptized :)
(I'll echo "All you need is love" because I was thinking that too)
