Amazing

This one's a little deep even for me....

I just finished reading Mistaken Identity: Two Families, One Survivor, Unwavering Hope. And I am still in a state of amazement over the faith of these two families.

It is truly awe inspiring to see these families overcome such a horrible tragedy and base everything on their faith and knowledge of God. It made me take a step back and evaluate my own relationship with God. Although religion has been part of my life since I was born, I don't think I have ever really based everything on faith. I haven't pulled out my scriptures every time I have been overwhelmed or needed help - I have relied on myself and those around me.

I still can't fully put into words the feelings or thoughts that this book gave me. I have been mulling it over and over in my head for days, and I am still somewhat overwhelmed by my lack of faith compared to the families in this book. Looks like a bit of soul searching will be in my future.
