This tree in my front yard reminds me of life. There are so many challenges that occur, but there are also so very many beautiful blessings!
Same tree - different weather - just a day apart. Isn't it beautiful?!
Reminds me so much of this from Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf: "I have seen enough ups and downs throughout my life to know that winter will surely give way to the warmth and hope of a new spring. I am optimistic about the future.... for our part, we must remain steadfast in hope, work with all our strength, and trust in God...."
I can choose to focus on the challenges, or I can choose to see the blessings right outside my front door!
When I trust in my Father in Heaven and the blessings He always gives me, life is filled with beauty!
