A long time family friend has created this go fund me for my husband and I. We may not end up getting the funds we need but I have faith a miracle can come from this in one way or another. Thank you to all of you on here praying for us❤️
Husband and I are on track to get sealed by the end of this year!!! And we both now have our temple recommends. I know it’s going to be important for us to attend as much as possible and stay close to the Lord.
Before conference I had these painful thoughts of “what if I am being lied to? What if this isn’t true?”. Watching that Book of Mormon video President Nelson shared brought the most powerful feeling of “This is true. Christ lives and this is His church.”

I know we announced our pregnancy early but a miracle is a miracle and we wanted to share with the people who have supported us so much. Internet friends are amazing.
We are praying this little baby stays put and we have a healthy pregnancy. Thank you to so many of you, truly❤️
I just have to shout out my twitter family because you all have played a huge role in my journey back on the path. Thanks to those who held my hand and pushed me to greatness. And even to those who bullied me back on the path 😉 God is good
I had a phenomenal meeting with my branch president today. I am getting so so close to getting my temple recommend back. I could use some prayers that my priesthood leaders will be guided and I will find comfort in the counsel I receive. 💛
Me and my husband’s biggest goal of 2023 is to be sealed in the temple. I feel it in my soul that this is our year but also know that Satan is gonna work hard on us.
Going to conference tomorrow morning with my husband. I am soooo excited!!! Many of you know my husband is a convert so this will be his first time!!
#GeneralConference
Although I’m in so much pain I know my Heavenly Father is here with me. I know He loves me and I know His angles are surrounding me. I haven’t lost hope and I know I’m see my baby one day❤️
My sisters in Christ, you do not need to find your worth in speculating ideas or doctrine about Heavenly Mother. We know we have Heavenly Parents who love us. We know they are a unified couple. Nothing more needs to be said until God says otherwise.
Could you guys send some prayers my way? I am heading to the doctor tomorrow morning to hopefully get on a medication to help me in my fertility journey. Hoping to get some answers and also hoping my doctor will listen and help me. 🤞🏼
Wasn’t able to tweet since I was at conference this morning but oh my word I need to repent and I ask all of you saints to repent as well. We have all participated in a contentious interactions in this app and we have got to be peacemakers.
A porn addiction almost ended my parents marriage and was the main reason why my dad abused me. If you struggle with it, stop. Get help and seek the Lord for a way out of that trap. It will cause so many wounds in your life that can be hard to heal from.
Just paid my tithing. Whoo this a good feeling. It’s taken me a while to really have faith in the commandment of paying tithes. But here I am. Thank goodness for the atonement.
This picture was shared to me today and it accurately depicts the pain I feel daily but the hope and peace I can feel knowing my baby is with the Savior ❤️
An inactive member in our ward came to church for the first time in 10 years. He stood up and bore as much of a testimony as he had and the spirit filled the room.
Anyone else feel the intense sense of urgency after conference? Like nothing else matters as much as making sure you are prepared to meet the Savior? I did.
As I struggle with infertility I have become a little angry over the past month. I have prayed and hope to find comfort from the words shared today. I just need to know God hasn’t forgotten me…
#GeneralConference
I did baptisms today and felt the spirit so strong. It was so nice to escape the chaos that is in the world rn. I felt my Savior’s love as I sat in the chapel of the temple.
Just studied Elder Bednar’s talk from conference and it is SO powerful. His words really hit me: “Our short-term preoccupation with “the things of this world” and “the honors of men” may lead us to forfeit our spiritual birthright for far less than a mess of pottage.”
Dad has triple bypass surgery wednesday. I am consumed with anxiety and the fear of losing my dad. I am fasting tomorrow for him and praying so hard that everything is okay.
My mom got released from her Young Women’s calling because the leaders were fed up with her trying to put an end to “we don’t want to hurt the YW’s feelings so we won’t teach gospel standards”. She was tired of these girls walking all over the leaders and they canned her 🤦🏻♀️
So people can be like “oh that makes sense I respect that” when an Orthodox Jew explains what it means to be Kosher but it’s suddenly the end of the world for Latter-Day Saints to refrain from drinking coffee and tea..🙄
There’s an old wives tale that says if you wrap a baby blanket and place it under the Christmas tree, you’ll have a baby by next Christmas. It seems silly to some but to us, as we wrapped and placed that blankly under the tree tonight, we had hope❤️
I’ve been working on the repentance process for 4 years now and one thing I have learned is that it takes a mighty change of heart and converting faith to keep your foundation firm. Elder Bednar’s words reminded me of that once again.
#GeneralConference
Elder Bednar shared the parable of the Royal Marriage Feast and something that I’ve been thinking about non stop since conference is about how the man in the parable rebelliously chose not to wear the wedding garment.
This loss is really breaking me down but everything on the outside has to be rainbows and sunshine because “at least you know you can get pregnant” and "you can always try again". I don't want to try again. I want the baby I had.
I’m struggling so bad in life rn. I have no desire to attend my dumb branch, my friends are toxic, I feel so empty since my miscarriage, and I feel so lonely all the time. I just don’t feel like myself since my pregnancy loss.
my baby didn’t even look like a baby yet when the pregnancy ended. it was a tiny ball of growing cells with no eyes, nose, or anything. so it’s weird grieving someone i never saw or met. I’m grieving what could have been. I’m grieving a child I could have given all my love to
i thought today was the 19th. TODAY IS MY FLIPPING ANNIVERSARY and my husband and i didn’t do anything! We both didn’t realize 😭😭😭 happy 2 years to us I guess
i will never stop complaining about how every time i go to the doctor they have signs about how you can’t be more than 15 min late yet EVERY SINGLE TIME I GO TO THE DOCTOR I SIT FOR 30 MINUTES BEFORE BEING SEEN
You’re not a hypocrite because you have a bad habit you are trying to break. You are a hypocrite if you hide it, lie about it, or try to convince yourself the Church has the problem for maintaining such high standards.
-Bradley R. Wilcox
Going into 2024 with no baby hurts so much. It all feels so lonely. The people closest to me in my life aren’t there for me (besides my husband). You all are the only ones that seem to actually care and listen to me.
I’m just devastated.
My therapist reminded me today that even Joseph Smith asked God where He was and when he and the saints would see relief from their trials. She told me it’s okay to feel plead with God for the end to our suffering. She reminded me that Joseph was still blessed in the end.
I am still struggling to have faith in my trial. I want to be the strong woman people can look up to while I go through such a heartbreaking trial but I am not. I guess I have a lot to work on.
i hate that the utah mormon girl gets so much hate. i’m not ashamed that I dress modestly, love pebble ice and say things like “oh my heck” and “frick”
People say church history caused them to leave the church by I bet 99% people who say that are lying. I can bet that almost all of them just don’t want to live the standards set forth by God. And it’s become easier to blame something else other than themselves.
I apologize for the raw emotions I let out on this app last night. They were intense and I was in a state of total hopelessness and grief. I’m doing better today. I’m not always like this, I just have some bad days.
The exmos are latching on to the Enoch murders and saying that it makes sense that he would murder his family because he’s LDS. I’m sick. Are people really this stupid?!
Teren was a beautiful soul. My heart absolutely aches for his family. What a blessing it is to know that his family will see him again and that he is reunited with his father. 💛
my dad is in the ER again. i’ve been trying to be positive for several months now but im tired of it. my dad is not doing well and we are all so scared he is going to leave us sooner than we ever anticipated. i’m so scared i don’t want to lose my dad.
My husband passed the sacrament for the 2nd time today and when he passed the water to me and i knocked over two cups and spilt water all over me 😭
#WifeFail
My grandma always told us growing up that she didn’t want any empty chairs when we all reunited in Heaven. Even during my time away from the church, I never wanted my Grandma to see my empty chair.

Okay we had some scheduling conflicts so our sealing will probably happen the beginning of January! Calling to make the changes tomorrow:) Then we will have an official date set!!
Haven’t been to church in a month. We made it today. Since my miscarriage it’s been really hard for me to get up and go each week. Something about having to go put on a smile and talk to a bunch of people I barely know just seemed too much for me.
Question, my husband and I need have to drive to Idaho in a couple weeks. We really don’t want to miss church but we also need to get there sooner than later. Is it ok to go to church just to take the sacrament and then hit the road before the whole meeting is over?
