Amazing day
Today was one of the neatest days. I feel so blessed to have been worthy of a day like today. First Kim was telling me about the book The Message. Its about a guy who goes into a coma and gets to enter the spirit world. So yesterday I went and picked it up and finished it this morning. It is as great as Kim said it would be. It confirmed everything I had thought and then some. I knew my dad and even Grandma were with me at times. I have always felt my dad left this life early to better help me. I feel like he could help and prompt me better on the other side. This book made me feel that for sure. I am so blessed to have my relatives helping me every step of the way. When I finished I was prompted to read my patriarchal blessing. I hadn't read it in years. I had always felt like nothing applied to me. Going on a mission, bearing my own children...but I decided to read it anyway. And one spot hit me. It talked about how I would have a great rapport with children. They will love you for your goodness and they will respond to you. I cried. I am in Primary. And I do love those kids so much. But you always wonder if they feel it, or if your doing enough, or whatever. Well today during church a young woman and her daughter came to church for the first time. She had been taking lessons for years but never came to church. I met her while going out with the missionaries one night. I instantly loved her. I only met her and her daughter once. So after church I went up to her and told her how happy I was that she came, her daughter pulled at me to hold her and just smiled at me. I took her to primary with me and another little boy came up to me and rapped his arms around me and looked at me with this smile. His mother told me he talked about me during the week...Im just the secretary. Here I was, standing in the cultural hall with one child on my hip and another on my leg, holding me. I felt so much love and peace from these sweet children that I felt like Heavenly Father was aware of me and wanted me to know I was doing just as I was supposed to. Im truly grateful for the sweet moment of today.
