The Savior Loves Me

• As I have been to college for a little over a month I have realized a lot of things. Such as
• I miss my moms cooking (college food isn't as great as I thought it would be)
• I miss my queen size bed (I love sharing my room with my awesome roommate, but I would like my nice soft queen size bed back :) ) 
• I miss my best friend Kelsey (It just happened that my roommates name is Kelsey and it makes me miss my best friend back home more and more.
• I miss the warm weather of St. George (although it hasn't been that cold it has been cold enough that I need the warmth of Sunny St. George back) 
• The most important thing I have realized is that my Savior Jesus Christ, loves me. 

I have had many hard things thrown at me while over this month and it has been quite a ride. I have learned how to handle relationship with roommates, how to do all my school work and make dinner and go to work all in one night ( doesn't sound so bad.. but some nights it is), I have learned that I procrastinate and maybe that is why that last one is hard! I have had to rely on the help from my loving Heavenly Father. He has billions of children but he knows me Allison Madsen and what I need and the best way to help me. He knows that I am stubborn at times, and he seems to humble me. He answers my prayers every night. Even if they don't come automatically or it isn't the answer I wanted, He answers them.  At times when I have felt so alone and all I have wanted to do was go home and be with my parents He has put his arm around me and made me feel like on in a million. He has made me realize that life isn't as hard as I had made it seem in high school.. (sorry parents) That wearing a smile everyday makes the day 10 X better and I am a firm believer of that. I am going through something that may seem so small to others but it is a HUGE thing to me and really I have been waiting for an answer for a couple years now and all I know is that the answer is coming but we go by the man upstairs timing now ours :)! I am so grateful for the relationship that I have made with the one who means the most to me. I wouldn't trade all the hardships and trials I have had to face while in this last month because I wouldn't have experienced the LOVE that he has for me without all of the trials.
