Good Things To Come

I came across this video yesterday, and I think it's definitely worth five minutes of your time.

Bad things that happen are really inconvenient. For me, having cancer was never part of "the plan," or so I thought. But I like it when the video says that "we all have times when we need to know that things will get better... and that's what the gospel of Jesus Christ offers us."

One word comes to mind: hope.

What do I hope? Well, I hope that I can be completely healed, I hope to be able to serve the Lord through a mission, I hope to marry in the temple, I hope to meet my Savior again one day.

Throughout my treatments and recoveries, the thought that "things WILL get better" always stuck out in my mind. Isn't it comforting to know that at some point in the future, it will be better?

For some points in my life, things have gotten better. Life really is good. I can't complain for all that I've been blessed with. And for some other points, I'm still waiting. But that doesn't mean that I'm hating life. It's frustration to deal with myself and my life sometimes, but not frustrating to a point where I regret anything. I love my life, and everything in it!

So remember, if things aren't "good," reevaluate yourself, count your blessings and always remember that no matter who or where you are, there are "good things to come."

Keep running!
