Lyssa's inspirational thoughts for the day!

 New post ahead: 👏🏻🥰  The more time I spend on this earth and the older I get, I’m starting to realize more and more things. Who would’ve thought? Haha The more people I meet and talk with, make me realize that no one, not one single person has a clue what the future holds. 🤷🏻‍♀️They don’t know what their life will look like or what comes next. They might’ve had a plan, but it didn’t go anywhere near how they thought it would go. But nonetheless, they’re grateful for what they’ve learned and where they are now. I don’t know why, but growing up I always thought that at some point, you get to this place of knowing what’s ahead. Of knowing what your life will be like, and of what the future will hold. That you finally figure it all out. 😜 But that’s just not the case. Granted, I was a little sad to find this out 😅 but then I started to feel better because I knew I wasn’t the only one that felt that way.  It’s just not how life works. But this life does give us an opportunity to dig

 A couple months ago, I was messaged on Instagram with an opportunity to speak at a girls camp come August. This sweet soul said she followed me and loved everything I had posted, which was so sweet of her! 🥰 I jumped at the opportunity and said “of course! I’d love to speak.” Months passed and last night was my opportunity to speak. I was able to have my dad come with me and we had such a special experience together with these young women. 💕 I had prepared a few thoughts that had come to me over the course of the couple months, but asked Heavenly Father to guide me. That I’d say what He would want me to say. 🙏🏻 He is aware of these girls.  He knows what they’re dealing with and their struggles.  He knows them, because He loves each and every one of them. ♥️ I felt that love so strongly! My heart was full last night! After I spoke, I stayed for testimony meeting. Boy, were these sisters spiritual powerhouses! I needed to meet these sisters, their leaders, and the priesthood brother

Every time I travel, I’m always surprised who else in the world is traveling too. Who’s flying out the same day as I am, who’s going to the same location or different location as I am. Every time I’m around so many people, my first thought is that Heavenly Father knows each and every one of them, just like He knows who I am.   He knows everything about their life. Their likes, dislikes, their struggles, their successes, what their worrying about, what makes them happy, and etc. I’m really grateful that my Heavenly Father knows me, really knows me. I’m grateful that when I pray, I never get a busy signal or a “please try again later” answer. When I pray I have His complete and full attention.  🙏🏻  He wants to help me in every aspect of my life. What I care about, He cares about.  ♥️ Being single has given me a lot of time to think about my life and what I really want- in life and in my future spouse. The most important thing that I want is that we both have a deep relationship with Go

 New post: Into the unknown!  Save yourself some worry, and read it 🥰👇🏻 Recently the topic of trust and obedience has come up a lot as I’ve been talking to some of my friends lately. Why they think I’m “good” at that, I’ll never know, 😅 but I am trying my best to be that person- a faith filled, God trusting woman. 👊🏻🙏🏻 Amidst all the craziness in the world and all the unknown, for some, It’s hard to find peace and trust God in all the uncertainty. There’s so many reasons swirling around us that make it easy to doubt, question if God is there, or simply find the good.  But trust me, my friends-God is there. ♥️ He is the silent teacher at times during trials, gently reaching forth His hand in times of need, and even sending other people to answer our prayers. 🙏🏻 “Into the unknown” has been my theme the last year or so. (Frozen fans anyone? 🥶)The meaning and song really hit me and has resonated with me so much. Silly, I know. But God works in mysterious ways.  I've had my a
