What Will You Say?

Sometimes I feel like giving up. Sometimes, trying just seems too hard.

And then I remember.

God gave me this desire to write. And along with it, He's blessed me with ability and the opportunity to learn and grow in my craft. One day, He might ask me, "What have you done with all that I've given you?"

"While we are not all equal in experience, aptitude, and strength, … we will all be accountable for the use of the gifts and opportunities given to us." ~ President James E. Faust

I hope I can say that I tried. That I believed with Him by my side, anything might be possible.

What will you say?

Your best is good enough, Ali. And so is mine, as long as we give it our all.

You are well admired Ali. I'd say you are doing more than trying. Keep going you are having an effect.

I think I'll be saying, "Don't beat me?" J/K I truly hope to stand before my maker and have Him be proud of what I became. And that He knows I love him.
