Three Things to Remember

I had a professor at BYU whom I loved and learned a lot from. He taught us three important things in each of his classes. He told us that if we remember only one thing from his class he hopes it would be these things. I have never forgotten.

1. TTT=Things Take Time

2. When things don't go as planned, make the best of it!

3. Life is hard but with the help of the Lord we can do hard things.

Every time I find myself in a hard spot or when I get frustrated because things don't go like I think they should, or even when I'm so tired of waiting for something that I think I need right now...I hear these three things in my head. I repeat them over and over again. I can't tell you how many time these wise points have helped me relax and realize that everything is going to be okay no matter what. Life is a test. We learn and we grow. It is not always easy but if we remember that there is a plan and a purpose to it all, life can be a joy. Yes trials can be joys when we realize that they are molding us into who we need to become. So when life goes wrong remember that in the end the things that go wrong helped to make everything go right.
