The New Addition


So, I finally decided to start my blog!! Inspired initially by my friend ElizaBethany Benson, she is amazing. Well, for my introductory blog I think I will start with my first winter away from home.
I came to the exotic paradise that is Rexburg, Idaho about six months ago. Who'd thought that this Big City dweller would end up here. It just goes to show you that the best things in life aren't always the things you plan or even the things you initially want.

Sam that is a very deep and TRUE statement!!! I was just thinking today about how I have done and am doing so many things with my life that I never thought I would do, infact many of them are things that I never wanted to do. Not just indiferent but did NOT want to do it ever. It just goes to show how the Lord leads and guides our lives. That may sound discourageing "If I let God lead me then I'll have to do the things I don't want to do" but the true miracle is that when you desire his will and follow it you find joy so exquisite that you never would have allowed yourself to have. I would have denied myself of the greatest blessings I have ever had if I had stubornly stuck to what I wanted.
