Yesterday I hit a bump in the road. I was struggling with self-doubts. I was worried about whether I was saying the right things when I wrote my testimony and just basically afraid of messing up. Why do we allow Satan to make us feel bad? Why are we so quick to recognize our faults, our weaknesses or believe we are just not good enough? Luckily, Heavenly Father came to my rescue with the scripture in Mormon 7: 13.
"But behold, that which is of God inviteth and enticeth to do good continually; wherefore, every thing which inviteth and enticeth to do good, and to love God, and to serve him, is inspired of God."
Then I realized it's okay if I don't write or say the right thing. It is not my words or my testimony but the Spirit of the Lord that will work in their hearts. Heavenly Father is pleased with our efforts whenever we are doing our best. The best part is that He will make up the difference!

Jen soon met a lot of us Mormon moms at the YMCA. It was the place to be in the community. The Y offered free childcare so we would get together to chat and workout and our kids got to play with their friends everyday. Seriously, Win-Win! Before I moved I thought about giving her a Book of Mormon but didn't. I hope that with this book and the example of others still there she will want to know more.
