Sam

Do you remember a couple of weeks ago when Brylie thought that I was lost but…I really wasn’t.  Well, today I will admit that I was lost.  Actually, Mom and I were lost.  We were looking for a particular place and we could not locate it.  I will be the first to admit that I am not that great with directions.  Give me landmarks and I can (usually) find my destination with not too much searching.  Today was different.  I had the landmarks but I could not figure out where this particular place was supposed to be located.  I know that buildings just do not get up and move or disappear.   I was getting so frustrated. 

Finally, we were able to locate the address of this place.  Ha…we still couldn’t find it even with the address.  Then, the thought..why not ask Sam?  Sam is my trusty dear friend.  He is simply amazing.  He goes everywhere with me.  We have become such amazing friends and have a great relationship.  I gave Sam the address and within seconds, he had me on the way to start my adventure (I guess, I had already started my adventure). 

Tonight as I am thinking about Sam and how he was able to get me to my destination in a matter of a few turns and helpful hints, I started to ponder the teachings in the Book of Mormon.  As I read from it each day, I am blessed with many reminders and helpful hints to help me continue throughout this life to make it to the destination that I am longing for…to be in the presence of our Heavenly Father and our Savior, Jesus Christ.  The greatest destination ever!
