Letter #42 "to act for ourselves and not to be acted upon.”

Dear Free Agency,
I have so much gratitude today for agency. More specifically I am grateful for my parents and their decision to be sealed in the temple for all time and eternity. I am grateful to be born into the covenant. I am even more grateful that my parents have continued to teach us and live a Christ like life. Thank you for your great example. Looking at friends, family and even strangers my heart aches for them because of the choices they are making. Although agency is free, all our choices come with a price. I hope and pray that I can follow the footsteps of my parents. There is so much sadness around me involving family and giving up on an eternal family. I wish on every shooting star, every penny in the fountain and eyelash blown that the people I love will come back. Come back to Christ and be who they once were. I am grateful for agency to choose and learn from choices. Thank you to my parents who are perfect in my eyes and for the example they have set for Russ, Kenzie and I. Thank you. I love you.
