"I have sometimes of late been so filled with the love of God, and felt such essence of his favor as has made me rejoice abundantly indeed. My Heavenly Father has been very gracious unto me, both temporally and spiritually."
This quote from Mary Fielding Smith is one of my favorites. It was written in a letter to her brother after a time of great trials. I have not been asked to give some of the things that she was, but I do share her gratitude to Heavenly Father for all that I have been given. The title I chose for this blog references Luke 12:48; For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required. I know that I have been given much, both temporally and spiritually. It follows, then, that much is expected of me. My goal for this blog is to use it as a medium to give back- to share the blessings, experiences, opportunities, lessons, and adventures that I have been given so that I am not the only beneficiary.
