A peculiar people

"We should not allow our personal values to erode, even if others think we are peculiar. "

—President James E. Faust

Sometimes it's hard to be peculiar. Sometimes it's hard to have 'old fashioned values' in a world that's changing and becoming a power hungry society. It's hard to say don't swear. It's hard to say don't listen to that. It's hard to say don't talk about stuff like that. It's hard to keep encouraging others who should be 'peculiar' to be peculiar. It's hard to explain that I WANT to be peculiar.

It's so worth it to be peculiar. It's worth it to have a testimony. It's worth it to feel worthy to do anything priesthood leaders ask.

I like being peculiar. Yesterday I had such a spiritual day... that Satan tried ruining.

Sacrament meeting - Branch conference. Christ and Service

Sunday School -Service

Relief Society - Christs life and service

Missionary discussion- obeying commandments so we can receive blessings

Fireside - families and drawing closer to Christ

Missionary movie/open house- Finding Faith in Christ.

Home- awful rumors.

I hate it. Just when I finally feel that I'm not drowning anymore Satan TRIES kicking me back into the water.

I am so grateful that my family is peculiar too. I am so grateful that I have a strong enough testimony that it's going to take a lot more then the little stuff to get my head under the water.

I love that I can feel my spirit growing. I love knowing that I'm doing what I should be doing
