There are many times where I feel very inadequate. Especially since I have gotten married and have been striving to be the great wife that Clayton deserves, and now even more so since I have become pregnant, as I am preparing myself to be a good mother and raise a new child of God in a very scary world... It seems overwhelming a lot of the time, as I try so hard to be everything I want to be, and what I seem to think everyone wants me to be. As I am sure many other people feel this way, it is something that is a very large struggle for me. However, this morning I woke up and had a feeling to read Pres. Ukdorf's talk at the Relief Society session of last conference. I was not able to attend that session, so I was not very familiar with what the talk was on. I just know that a lot of people talk about it and people really liked it!
As I read it, he addressed my problems as if I had sat down and told him everything! He talked about creating something, and bringing us that much closer to our Heavenly Father by doing so. I have thought about this many times being pregnant. I am helping in creating a new life and bringing a new spirit child of our Father in Heaven to this earth to fulfill their mission here. If I have no other talent or ability to create, how great is the privilege that I have to help create life! What a blessing it is that I will have the chance soon to be a mother! I cannot wait for that day! As for anything else, all I can do is do my best, and to take one small thing about me at a time, and just try to make it better!
What a blessing it is to have truly inspired men of God to deliver his messages to us in a day where we need it most. It's always good to have a bit of good news and council in time of sorrow and need. I am so thankful for our Heavenly Father and our Savior, Jesus Christ and their knowledge and awareness of us as individuals and our needs. I love them with all my heart, and I love their gospel and teachings. I consider it an honor to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and that I can benefit from these great councils of the Lord.
