Day 29: Faith

Day Twenty-nine. I am a very religious person, yet down to earth, so I am not very verbal about it all. I try to live my life by example and be the best I can be, I am not perfect. I do not claim to know everything, and I know I have much room for growth and development within my religious beliefs. However, today, during our visit, I was able to take part in Sacrament Services at the hospital. The spirit in the room was so strong. I was able to reflect on Christ and the great example he is to me, he gave his life, so that I can live again. That one day I will be perfected, you my little man, will be perfected. That this trial we are going through will just be like a second in time, and that we will be able to be together, exalted and in the presences of our Savior. He set the way. I strive to live like he would have me do.
 
As I looked around the room, it was filled with doctors and nurses. Dressed in their scrubs, me in my everyday clothes, in an office with cubical walls. It didn't matter though. We bowed are heads in remembrance of the life of Christ and the sacrifice that he made for us.
 
Now this is just me, it has nothing to do with how the doctors and nurses work or their knowledge of the medical practice and medicine, but it was so neat to stand with them as we partook of the sacrament. To know that there are so many of us with the same purposes and beliefs, I was in awe. Speechless. And felt so grateful again, to my Savior, for sending me you, for your purpose here in this world, and how much you have blessed my life. And ever so thankful, for ALL the people (regardless of religion or anything else) who are caring for you and helping you, so you and I can share a lifetime together.
 
I couldn't get through this time of life without my faith, my beliefs in the blessings that have been promised to you, to me. And without the support of our Heavenly Father and Christ our Savior. Let this be an example to you, my sweet, sweet boy, "through Christ, all things are possible".
