Sundays

Sundays aren't always easy for me. In fact they are hard. Today one sweet sister stopped and asked what she could do to help me as I started unloading my kids. I could have done things on my own more quickly but a little voice said "let her serve you, let her help you." So I let her carry one of my bags and we walked in to Sacrament together. Then another sister came over to me after sacrament meeting and told what Joy and  happiness Maggie brought to her. I apologized to her for Maggie being a distraction (she is a stinker) and she said "no not at all, She made me so happy, I loved watching her and her freedom and joy, just think of what happiness she brought to other people today."

The Lord is teaching me. I'm a slow learner and its hard, SO VERY HARD. There is no easy button to push in life. This quote has brought me a lot of comfort :

It will work out. It always does.

It's hard to feel as though you are doing Sundays alone. Boyd was in a YSA bishopric and Alyssa and I went to church alone for 1 1/2 years. Tough stuff. I'm glad that you have people in your ward who are aware and interested in helping you. Hang in there.
