"I think that's the biggest thing, is knowing that there's always room to grow and that we are divine children. We have a purpose here on this Earth, to continue to learn and grow to take it with us after this life."
"The only thing I can put it to is the true power of the atonement like it went from so negative to clean and positive. Such a testimony builder to me that it's possible for everyone."
" Everything that we go through in life, all of it, is part of our education, and more than that, it's part of our ministry. It's our ability to help, love, and care for other people. I feel like it has been an honor and a privilege to have lived my life, even though it has been incredibly hard. I want other people to know that the Lord lives and loves them, even if it doesn't look like He does."
" I've come to know that Heavenly Father does know. He knows not just what we do or choose to do or the mistakes we make, He knows who we are and what we want. And He's just waiting for us to just even look at Him or acknowledge Him. He has so much for us. He has so much for me. He's given me so much already."
" My life is not what I expected it to be, but it's beautiful and it's wonderful and it's mine and I built it and I made it this and I'm proud of what I did and I'm proud of how I built it and I'm proud of the relationship that I have with my Heavenly Father. Everything that I went through doesn't define who I am, but it helped me become who I am and it helped me to find the fortitude that I needed to get through it and to power through and power on."
