Who Am I, Where Am I From, Why Am I Here and Where Am I Going?

I added a widget to our blog today, "The Mormon Channel". I don't think I'm ever overly in anyone's face about what I believe, nor do I want to be. But I know a lot of my friends wonder and have asked questions, I have too. The content is set up like any other online radio station, it streams content on various topics, or you can click on different sections. What I'm loving right now is the section called "Music With A Message". You can click on whatever topic you want like, Faith, Repentance, Peace and Service. It mixes some spoken word with "faith promoting" music, not just hymns.
I haven't ever really taken advantage of all of the things our Church has set up for us to use on a regular basis- but this website is gold. I started looking at it more closely as I prepared my lesson for last Sunday and it's set a completely different tone in our house since, especially this afternoon as I've cleaned. I have to admit the section Family,Home,Children has made me shed a few tears- but not in a bad way. "If I Only Had Today" by Hilary Weeks is probably the one that does it every time, but it's so true. This sounds like a plug, but it's not, I'm just really appreciating that I belong to something that is so far reaching and answers every question I've ever had. I'm so grateful that this gospel isn't just a Sunday thing for us, even though some weeks it seems like it is. I'm also grateful for how music can speak to my spirit, and help things sink deeper and affect me more- for the better, everytime.
