What I feel vs. What I know

I think there can be an important distinction between what we occasionally feel, and what we know. Sometimes I feel like chocolate is a food group, but I know that too much of a good thing will make me sick. Sometimes I feel like my house spontaneously produces messes, but I know that I and my kids just have some bad habits. And sometimes I feel like the heavens have selectively shut me out and that I'm just not worthy of certain blessings and answers, but what I know is that everything is on Heavenly Father's timetable, and even if those certain blessings and answers never come, my Heavenly Father loves me, there is a reason, and I will be better for the experience.

Couldn't have said it better myself. So I simply say, Amen.

I truly appreciate this post. It is so true. I do think it makes it easier to handle when you recognize the difference.
