Little Things

       Shaved legs and clean sheets. This is the most magical combination I know. Had a bad day? Wash your sheets and shave your legs, it always helps me. This is probably not a good idea for guys though, sorry.  I was thinking how bizarre this was today. How can something so simple, be so amazing? I've mentioned it before: life is hard, you can loose control of everything, but one little thing, so simple, can make it seem better - even if it's just for ten minutes.
        I love the tender mercies of the Lord. Without them, I would not be where I am today. Cliche, yes, but there it is. Every once in awhile, during a bad day - or even an alright day - something will happen that I will know that Heavenly Father is watching out for me, and that everything is going to be okay. The simpleness of the gospel always amazes me. God chooses the simple and the weak - by small and simple thing are great things brought to pass. It's not the monstrous miracles in our lives that create a lasting testimony (how often do these happen, anyway?), it's the tiny, steady steps we take towards perfection. Minuscule changes we make within ourselves, to become better.
      I am thankful for God's love notes in my life. The little things that remind me that although I am far from being the greatest, the most beautiful, the smartest, the fastest, and the most talented person in the world, He still loves me, and He accepts me for who I am.
