#19 I hear His Voice

The Lord’s voice has never been louder in my life than when I started this new chapter in my life. I hear his voice in the conversations I pass, introductions of new friends, while typing on the computer for a class, but most importantly while I’m searching His word and works. College is so new and scary at times; I feel lost, small, and at times very forgettable which has been really hard for me because I’m used to being known. Having growing up with the title of honor ‘HESS’ it was a huge shock coming and having maybe three people who already knew who I was or that’s what it felt like at least. I was so lonely and depressed I just wanted to go home. I just needed a hug; the kind of hug that makes you forget why you were sad and you’ll never remember again.



 I got through the first three minutes until I realized in a greater abundance that I needed my Savior’s voice and the hug and comfort from His Atonement. I learned that homework is done quicker as you do it after scripter study (not just reading) and I would have better focus if I did that; I heard His voice. My roommate was super shy the first couple days and now we stay up singing Nacho Libre songs and laughing our heads off; I hear his voice in our late night conversations that help me know that He is fully aware of me and every aspect of my life. The temple is where I feel His voice; when I go to His house I’m surrounded by His love and guidance and I need to go more often. I’m so thankful for the temple and I really can’t wait to make sacred covenants with Him soon!  I'm also preparing to serve a mission and hopefully that while I'm there I can be an instrument for His voice and work.
