Faith in the Middle

It's interesting that it's the hardest times in which one reaches out to Heavenly Father. Then, sometimes after a while and sometimes almost instantly things become so much better. In this case, things got better quickly. These past couple weeks went especially well. I celebrated Halloween by going to a place called Gardner Village which is known for their holiday decorations, little shops, and witches! This week started with Stake Conference at the Assembly Hall on Temple Square. That is such a beautiful building to have church in. The mom of the first kiddos I babysat told my mom that I was always their favorite babysitter. The senior director of the hospital I used to work at talked to my mom and told her to have me call him when I started looking for jobs. The social worker I work with on the floor brought me a chicken fried steak because she knew I missed it. My Texas girl heart almost exploded from happiness. My mom's Plano counterpart texted her and said the child life team there had nothing but good things to say about me. I RSVP'd for my graduation, and I found out because of my GPA I get to be in a slideshow before the ceremony. As I was leaving work my supervisor told me I had done a really good job that day, but she said it again as she pulled me to look into her eyes so I would know that she really meant it. I walked out to find surprise, beautiful, and delicious treats in my mailbox. Every day I get to come home to the sweetest and happiest puppy I have ever met. And, after this week I will only have three weeks left of my internship! So yes, sometimes we are going to go through tough times. But, I know I am supposed to be here for a reason, and because I had faith through the middle of the tough times, He helped me through it and brought me to the other side.
