help thou mine unbelief

I have always loved the story of the man with his son, coming to Christ to heal him. I loved the way Elder Holland spoke about it a few years ago in conference. How sometimes we may believe but our unbelief is still there. I love that even though the man had doubts, he still had faith strong enough to overcome them and bring his son to the savior. There are times where I feel like if I could just have more faith I'd be able to do anything, or that if I had more faith I'd understand everything better, but what I learned from this scripture is that Christ will take me as I am and help me overcome my doubts. With him I'll be able to accomplish the things that Heavenly Father wants me to do and has planned for me to do. 
Sometimes I can't always see what he has planned for me, and often that's something really hard for me to overcome. I hate not being able to see the end from the beginning. But something I will forever love is that I am not alone on this pathway he's put me on. He will continue to guide me daily through any unexpected twists and turns and lead me to exactly where He needs me to go. After all these years of following the Savior, He hasn't led me anywhere I didn't want to go, and He's taken me further than I'd have ever imagined.

  1. Great post Janessa. I too wonder what He has in store for me. Some of this I realize, I have control over, and some I don't have any control at all. Faith is the key however. I think that you express this doctrine very well. Thank you!!!
