Hope in Promises

     I can remember making pinky promises in kindergarten. They were so simple but seemed to be life or death back then. As we grow up promises start to shape or break us - or both.
It seems like trials seem to also shape people, especially the ones that are centered around a promise. I recently found out that no matter the promise that is broken or the trial at hand, there are far larger promises that are guaranteed. These promises are from our Father in Heaven.
     I have learned lessons and seen more blessings and promises in the past couple months  than ever before. I would feel ungrateful if I didn't share them.

I have learned that our Heavenly Father knows everything we go through. I have felt pure comfort. I know that He sends angels to help lift us when we fall. I know that He sometimes uses us as his tools to show people the gospel. It isn't always easy and sometimes it hurts. But I also know that He pours blessing upon us when we have faith in him.
I promise to anyone reading this that there is hope. I promise that if you are hurting or feel alone there is always someone there and He is a simple prayer away. I promise that there are good people out there. I promise that love will find you. I promise that if you look at the bigger picture your goals and aspirations will become reality.

I pinky promise that no matter what~ there is hope and light at the end of the tunnel. Everything happens for a reason and it's all in His plan.
