Oh Well

You know, everything has been so crazy around here. I kind of don't feel bad that i haven't blogged. Don't get me wrong, i love to blog, but sometimes you just cant get to it. so, oh well.

I went on a pioneer trek recently and that may have been the coolest experience. My stake went to Martins Cove in Wyoming. (is that spelled wrong?) We were given journals to write in so we could record our thoughts and all that good stuff. Well, i had not written anything the whole trip till the bus ride home. Though i don't believe i will forget anything of this trip. I will admit, I had a hard time leaving home. I didn't know what would happen while Spencer and I were gone. I was afraid. It turned out that my dad did go back into the hospital while we were gone. I felt like I should have been there. I should have been there. But i realized, I was not meant to be home. My friend was having a hard time because a relative had passed away. They came to trek anyway. Well, they decided that they needed to come find me, thinking "sarah can help". At the same moment I was thinking that I ought to be home. I think that our Father was telling me that I was needed here. And i was.

So, for the past like four or five months, I have been telling my friends how much I want to be a knight. I'm sure they are quite sick of it by now. I don't know what it is. It's not the fame or anything like that. i think I'm more drawn to the actual hard work they had to go through; and their rules of chivalry. I don't know why it fascinates me so. It just does. Well, I had a thought the other day that just made me happy. My thought was that I really am a knight. I am a knight that serves the kingdom of God. I serve, fight, and protect my king. I am a knight; as are you.
