La La LA!

I woke up this morning and felt like I hadn't been to church in a life time..honestly..but i got up and went and ended up tearing up actually! If you know anything about me i rarely cry about anything..but something got to me today. With any group of people there is always someone who is made fun of..in our religion it is often the "Molly Mormons and Peter Priesthoods"..ya know the ones who follow every rule. The ones who seem to never slip and are often categorized as up tight. But those are the people who are trying they're hardest to live up to what is expected of us. Those are the people we should be looking to as an example. Shouldn't we all just try a little harder. We are fortunate enough that our Heavenly Father does not expect us to be perfect. All that is expected of us is that we try our best and hopefully improve a little bit every day. With this simple expectation it is not hard to want to be the best you can be all the time. Even by doing little things like not watching rated R movies or honestly loving every person around you and being more Christ like. It seems like a silly challenge, but it truly is hard to put aside our human tendancies and ignore temptation. But it is comforting to know that it is never to late and whatever we have done in the past is forgiven and truly forgotten.
