Isn't She Awesome? |
We were going somewhere, really with no plan. I felt like I should knock a specific door, and did. Nobody came out, even though the family was very obviously home and very obviously noticed us. We looked down at our planners and really realized how few ideas we had to finish the day off. Then my companion looked up and said, "let's help that guy rake." we went over, arrived just in time to offer to help and do nothing, and then shared a lesson with him. We'll see what happens. Don't confuse the street signs with the destination, but keep going. Nephi didn't confuse the land bountiful with the promised land. Things will work out. Prayer is the expression of our will to God, whether it be in action, on our knees, in conversation, or anything else. Revelation is the expression of God's will to us, whether it be in miracles, a thought, a general feeling, a way things just seem to work out, or even a way they don't.
Anyway, I've also been practicing more specific gratitude in prayer and it's pretty cool. I try to think of ways that other people have blessed me and how others have been an example to me. I realize that it happens much more often than we might like to think. SSSOOOOO many people help us on a daily basis. Isn't it wonderful?!
God loves us. I might be Elder Brown. I might be American. I might be a son. But I'm DEFINITELY a child of God. and You are too. Nothing can change that and nothing will separate us from His Everlasting Love. That is evidenced in Christs Sacrifice. I know that Christ came to help us. He came to hlep us in everything.
Anyway. Good week. :) love yall!
