My Heavenly Father Loves Me Pt 3

Don't you just love it when you feel God's love for you through your friends or people around you? Don't you just love it when your friends see you as God sees you?

I might have to change the title of this post "I Am Blessed With Great Friends" because I am.

Friends who motivate me.
Friends who encourage me.
Friends who change me.
Friends who make me laugh.
Friends who comfort me.
Friends who put a smile on my face.
Friends who listen to me.
Friends who give me advice.
Friends who serve me.
Friends who uplift me.
Friends who teach me.
Friends who compliment me.
Friends who cheer me up.
Friends who see my potential when I don't see it.
Friends who love me as God does.
Friends who see me as God does.

I can feel God's love for me as I think about this because He has put these wonderful friends in my path. I will give you an excerpt from yesterday's journal.

This is awesome!
"I rode with C. and S. to the reception and on the way back...they started coming up with this list of qualities I possess. I was very grateful that they were there to cheer me up, and I don’t know if I showed it to them but I am very very grateful to them. They are so great! Also, S. told me that once she and some of the girls from Brownstone were playing a game and they asked each other who they admire from Brownstone and supposedly my name came up few times. This entire time I was judging myself, beating myself up, depressed, etc but people around me saw a wonderful man who has a strong testimony of the gospel. Wow, I can really fake it. I am just kidding. I felt so amazing to know that I could be an inspiration to other people." -From Thursday, October 20, 2011-
I love my friends. I wish I can be more like them to be a friend like they are to me.

PS: I am kind of, maybe, possibly working on another post about "My Path" at BYU after my mission but I just have been slacking off so I haven't touched it since like two months ago. Sorry. I will finish it soon so I can work on the next big project.
So cute
Before I talked about how my patriarchal blessing says that I need to choose my friends wisely but I feel like they choose me to be their friends rather than me choosing them, and I am so grateful (that's not a perfect word to describe how much I appreciate them) that they chose me.
