Drops...

This morning for my personal study I was reading a blogpost by Kathryn Thompson called "Drops of Awesome." The whole idea of the post was how we can use each moment in our lives to lift us higher and to bring us closer to the Savior. She used an analogy of drops in a bucket. Each drop of good was called a Drop of Awesom! Each time something good is done it adds a drop of awesome into the bucket, but, the part I really liked, is how she pointed out that when we make mistakes it doesn't take any drops out of our bucket.

"You don't loose drops for every misstep. You can only build. You can only build." 

Lucifer on the other hand would make us feel that each mistep we take brings us back down! He makes us feel that because we weren't "perfect" that there is no way to make it back to where we were before. To finisth the analogy she brought out a picture of water, labled "the atonement", it fills the rest of the bucket. The Savior makes up the rest! I just want to testify that I know that is true!  As we do our part to do our best and fill our buckets with good, he will do the rest! He has done that for me and know he can do it for you! I know He lives and loves us! He wants the best for us and has paid the price for us, if we will draw near to him!
