not giving up.

I've been listening to conference talks on my iPod as I walk to class. 

I've been looking for peace and comfort. 

I've been struggling with some classes(2 in particular) and friends. 

I've been feeling alone. 

When it got to the end of the Sunday Morning session something happened. 

Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing came on. 

I started crying, tears of joy that things will get better. 

I was reminded of the love my Savior had for me. 

He sacrificed himself so I could overcome these feelings. 

I could be happy because of His atonement. 

The pain, sadness, frustration, and loneliness could be taken away. 

I could overcome these trails. 

I can't give up because the Savior didn't give up on me. 

I have made mistakes and will make a couple hundred more.

 Heavenly Father still loves me. 

Christ made up the difference for me.

I will make it through this semester. 

I have a testimony. 

And that is enough for me to not give up.

Enough for me to keep going. 

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,
Mount of Thy redeeming love.

Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Hither by Thy help I’ve come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for Thy courts above.

Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for Thy courts above.

O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for Thy courts above.
