“We cannot see the future with precision, but we can know what the Lord intends and what it will take [for] each of us to qualify personally to participate.”

Henry B. Eyring

 

Today I intend to ponder this beautiful hope filled promise from President Eyring all day long.  I want to take it in, I want it to become part of the fiber of my being.  I want to believe with all of my

heart that this is true.  I want a testimony of this promise.

 

I went to bed last night with such anticipation of how many things I could accomplish with a day all to myself with no distractions in the house today.  I woke up with such excruciating jaw pain that it had to take priority this morning.  I spent time with heat on it.  I did not even begin on my list of what I wanted to be important.  I prayed for relief.  I thought about how nice it would be to have my sister work her magic hands on my jaw and get it to loosen up.  Heavenly Father knows me and is aware of my struggles He cares for my needs.  Before noon there was a ring at my door and there she was, my sister, I had not called her but she had come by to get something she needed that I had and she had time to help me.  I am so very grateful.

 

 

Thoughts on a Monday

Today my man came home for lunch, thanks babe it was great to see your handsome face. And it was funny that you spilled on your shirt and had to change.
My favorite talk, if I had one from October's General Conference was Elder Jeffrey R. Holland's talk. Angels are one of my favorite subjects to learn about, study, and consider right now. He said, "I testify of angels, both the heavenly and the mortal kind. In doing so I am testifying that God never leaves us alone, never leaves us unaided in the challenges that we face. And always there are those angels who come and go all around us, seen and unseen, know and unknown, mortal and immortal." I can think of no more powerful witness than to have this added to the witnesses I have already received. Angels are real they help us and Love us. I believe we can even be angels to those around us and that to me is fantastic.
I recommend any book by Allison Dubois for learning about angels, she herself is one in my book!
These are pictures of my very favorite Angels!! My Family. Me, Carlin, Christian, Mollie, Sister Warren (on the day she went home, we miss you), Naomi (Carlin's wife and our daughter in law), Jared holding Isaac (our grandson), and Stephan. And then of course my favorite angel of them all, Isaac.
