Day 365 of 2015

Today is the last day of the year! Crazy how time flies! Today I was able to get my oldest a phone which will let her call people but I control who she can contact and it tracks where she is. I am so grateful for this technology so I can feel she is safe. She is too young for a cell phone but this watch phone makes it so she can be as independent as one her age needs to be. The Lord truly has blessed us all with wonderful technology. He sent us a tender mercy today since we took the last one in stock and they were doing a special today and we also got some free items. I feel so blessed.

God Loves You!

Day 364 of 2015

Today I was inspired with a fun idea. My mom and I participate in a stair climb for cancer. This last year we were on someone else's team. This coming year I had the prompting to make our own team in honor of my mother, who so valiantly fought and survived stage 4 cancer. I know it touched her and hopefully we can raise money to help those still fighting and those who's battle has not even begun yet. I know the idea didn't come from me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 363 of 2015

Today I was able to make it through my workout. This, I know, only happened through divine help. My body is rebelling at becoming fit. I know I have heavenly help everyday to curb my appetite and get through my workouts. I know our body's are a temple so it is important to the Lord that we take care of them. I am grateful He is helping me in my effort to get mine healthy.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 362 of 2015

Today I was blessed with the energy to do the things that I wanted and needed to. I haven't gotten this much accomplished for a few days because I haven't felt well. I am so grateful for the healing I have recieved and for the motivation. 

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 361 of 2015

Today the Lord finally was able to soften my heart. I have felt Him trying to get in for days but I was too prideful to let Him. Today He sent my sweet husband to help me. I am grateful for the perfect match He sent me and how RJ helps me daily to want to be better.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 360 of 2015

I made it through today. Sometimes that is how I see the Lord in my life is He gives me the strength to make it through one day and into the next. He never leaves me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 359 of 2015

Today we celebrate the birth and life of our Savior. He makes everything possible as He created all things under the direction of the Father. Without Him we are nothing and have nothing. I am so grateful for His willingness to fulfill our Father's plan and to rescue a soul as repetitive in sin as mine. I try so hard but sometimes I don't get it right. I am grateful He is there to help me pick up the slack and to help me reach higher. I know my Savior lives and loves me. I also know He loves you.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 358 of 2015

Today we spent a lot of time as a family. I am grateful for this season and for family. The Lord blessed me with a wonderful family to spend this special time of the year with. I am grateful for His sacrifice so that I can be with them forever. At this time I celebrate His life, His atonement and Him conquering death so that we all might live again with our Heavenly Family. Life is good because of Him.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 357 of 2015

Today I prayed and prayed that a package that the postal service had lost would be found. It had a present for my brother. He would be very disappointed if Santa did not bring it. The Lord listened and answered my prayer. The package was taken to a neighbor and they brought it to me. I was so happy and so grateful. The Lord really does care about all aspects of our lives.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 356 of 2015

Today I was able to get a lot done and to spend time with my kids. I am grateful for these moments the Lord gives me with my children because I know I don't have many where we are all together. They will grow and with them growing so will our relationship. Having these moments when they are young and so full of life is a precious gift. I wish it was one that I unwrapped more often but I am learning to enjoy them and slow down a bit.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 355 of 2015

Today my sister in law hosted a Christmas party for my kids and her son. I am so grateful the Lord gives us good family that we can do these things with. It was very nice of her and a welcome change of scenery for us. We had a great time and made some good memories.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 354 of 2015

The Lord lessened my pain this morning so I could attend church. I begged last night in my prayer that the cramps in my stomach would be manageable so I could still attend church. He listened and granted my request. I felt wonderful all throughout church and had a great time. I would have missed a very well put together Christmas program and would have missed my little Sumbeam class. I am so grateful I was feeling well enough to attend.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 353 of 2015

Today when I was shopping the stuff I needed for the kids to finish their Christmas was all on sale AND I found an extra coupon. I know the Lord prompted me to go today and look at the things I had given up on getting because buying 4 of most things gets expensive. With the sale all the things were within my budget. I got almost 3 for the price of one. The Lord answers prayer spoken and unspoken!

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 352 of 2015

Today RJ got a bonus we were not expecting but really needed. I am so grateful for the Lord blessing our lives. I know it is because we pay our tithing and try to do our best. The Lord's promises are sure.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 351 of 2015

Today I was prompted to investigate something with my sons school work. It paid off. He is far ahead in a few subjects because I had him doing a lesson everyday. He actually only needs to do 2 of them a week, not every day. This will help his work load and his stress (and mine!). I am very grateful the Lord prompted me to look into it so that I could be pleasantly surprised and relieved.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 349 of 2015

Today I was able to get all the things done I needed to. I am grateful to the Lord each time this happens. I know I can't do all I am responsible for with out the Lord's help. He is with me everyday providing strength and peace and clearness of mind. I am blessed to have access to Divine help.

God Loves You

Heather

Day 350 of 2015

I love snow. I am so grateful for the beauty of snow and a loving Father who gives it to us. Looking at the snow fall tonight made my spirit happy.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 348 of 2015

Today I was warned about an electrical problem by my nose and then the Spirit told me the place. If I hadn't been warned promptly it could have caught our wall on fire. I am very grateful for the companionship of the Holy Ghost so that we can be warned of dangers.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 347 of 2015

I love being at church and feeling the peace and comfort. I am grateful for the sabbath and that time I get to renew myself. The Lord blessed us all by giving us the sabbath to rest from our labors.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 346 of 2015

Today I was able to sleep in. This was a much needed rest. I am so grateful the Lord has blessed me with a thoughtful husband who cooked, cleaned and watched the kids while I rested. I feel very blessed today.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 345 of 2015

I was able to have a quiet moment with my two younger kids today. With being teacher to my two oldest I am very busy. I found an hour today where I had nothing that had to be done. I was able to play a game and relax. It did wonders to my morale. I am so grateful the Lord gave me a break and let me have a little fun with the two who don't receive as much of my attention.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 344 of 2015

Today my dad was able to leave the hospital early. This I think was good for all the family. I am grateful the Lord blessed him to be well enough to leave and return to his home and family.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 343 of 2015

Today I am very grateful for someone who was inspired to go into the restroom at my dads work right when my dad was having a stroke. He was found promptly and recieved medical attention quickly. I know the Lord was watching over my dad and sent someone to his aid. Now he is in very good hands at the hospital and is comfortable. My dad has always been my hero. He was who I wanted to be like when I got older. I am so grateful the Lord is letting me be with one of my heroes for just a little longer on this earth. I am not ready to give him up yet.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 342 of 2015

Today I was able to help my daughter understand something with English. This is a miracle to me because grammar is my enemy. I hate grammar. And it hates me. On my daughters test today she was failing the same number of questions so I sat with her and watched her and through inspiration figured out her problem and was able to help her understand. She finally passed her test and we could all go to bed. I was very grateful.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 341 of 2015

Today our Family Home Evening (FHE) lesson was in the car on our way to see some lights at our local zoo. I am so glad the Lord prompted me to instigate our lesson. We normally just have our activity be all of FHE if it is a time consuming one far from home but in December we make sure that every Monday the story of the Nativity is told so our kids will remember why we celebrate this time of year. I won't go into the issues I have with Santa and we DO want our kids to have fun but we also want them to always know and remember who is the real center of CHRISTmas. So we sang a song and had prayer and then RJ gave the first telling of the story. (We all take a turn so by Christmas everyone in the family has had a chance to tell the Nativity in his or her own way.) I could feel the spirit and it started our little outing with a feeling of the true Christmas spirit. So, I am grateful for the promoting because it made the night better.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 340 of 2015

Today the Lord prompted RJ to grab something for my primary class which I thought was odd and he thought was odd at the time and kinda an after thought. It was a book with a story about Pres. Monson and a train set. I didn't wind up teaching and just left my stuff on the table when my partner showed up to teach. She had it planned to tell the story in her lesson and was going to just show a little picture and paraphrase the story. I felt the spirit tell me that RJ had been prompted to get the book for the lesson and I gave her the book to read. I felt the spirit strongly in the room as she read the story from our book. I am so grateful the Lord is in the details and helped with our lesson today. 

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 339 of 2015

Today I was able to spend a lot of time with RJ. I am so grateful for this time the Lord gave me. We don't get time together too often and I treasured today. The Lord knew we needed a break from everything and He supplied many opportunities for RJ and I. I am very grateful.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 338 of 2015

Today our car passed emissions! I prayed so hard and I felt at peace. I know the Lord knows how important that vehicle is to the transport of our rather odd family. It seats 9 and we use all 9 a lot taking family places. I am so grateful for our car and that the Lord has made it work for our family for so many years. We are very blessed to have two working cars.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 337 of 2015

Today RJ was inspired to check something on our car and it fixed our 'service engine soon' light so we can pass inspection. I am so grateful that he was promoted to check into something before we went and spent a lot of money.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 336 of 2015

Today I have gotten back my normal attitude. I have prayed much and I am not as patient as I wish to be yet but though lots of prayer and help from a loving Father, Who has lots of patience, I feel myself again. The cloud of irritation is leaving. I am so grateful for the answer to prayer and the blessings that our Father gives us.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 335 of 2015

Today I was able to make it all the way through a workout I haven't done in years. This may seem small to you and you're wondering how God's hand comes into it but I prayed hard this morning that my body would be able to handle it and the Lord helped me, I know it. He will help any righteous desire and wanting better health is, in my mind, a good desire.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 334 of 2015

Today I was able to go for a long walk by myself. I know I needed this walk and that the Lord prompted me to go so I could calm down. I was a little over stressed today and needed some cold air on my face and a brisk walk. The Lord knows me best.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 333 of 2015

Today I was able to rest a lot. I have not been well and am very grateful the Lord blessed me with a wonderful husband. He took wonderful care of me. The Lord blessed me for eternity by putting RJ into my life. Through him I see the Lord's hand often with all he does for me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 332 of 2015

Today I was able to see and talk with my good friend who went away to college. She is such a sweet girl. I have missed her smile and energy. We always have a good discussion. The Lord blessed me with the opportunity to be a teacher to her and now we are great friends. The Lord sends people to you who you need and who need you. It's a win win.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 331 of 2015

Today I was able to have a lot of time with some extended family. Family is the reason for this life. We all have our family unites and I am so grateful for the people the Lord has placed in mine. They are not only my family but my friends. It is a major blessing to have them be both.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 330 of 2015

Happy Thanksgiving! Today the Lord blessed our family with really nice day. The food was great, it was calm and peaceful, the clean up was easy and everything turned out wonderful. I know that the Lord helped to make today so restful. My dad really needed it. We all really needed it.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 329 of 2015

Today my RJ came home safe. He had to go on an out of town trip. He was prompted to leave the job site before a storm rolled in so that he could drive home safe and make it home in time for Thanksgiving. The Lord has blessed me by bringing him home to me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 328 of 2015

Today I received a prompting that my dad would be okay. He has been very sick and has been going through some trials. We have been very worried for him. As we prayed as a family for him I could feel the Spirit whisper peace to me and that he would be okay. I am so grateful for the gift of the Holy Ghost and the comfort He brings.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 327 of 2015

Today I am grateful for family. I had a thanksgiving party for the kids at our Mimi's house. She is such a wonderful woman and a blessing in my life. I am so grateful the Lord has given her to me to be a grandma and a friend. Any day I get to spend with her is a tender mercy from the Lord.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 326 of 2015

Today my lesson in primary went well. I am grateful for the help I received from the spirit to make it a good class. We talked about the scriptures and the kids listened to the stories. I will miss my class next year. When they move up it will be sad but happy for them moving on. I was glad for the Spirit to be with us and I hope it is for my last lesson of the year.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 325 of 2015

Today I was able to do everything I needed to plus some. It was a very active Saturday and I owe it all to the Lord. He got me out of bed, He prompted me as how to organize and maximize my time, He sent help to get some things accomplished that I couldn't do myself and He blessed me with the energy and patience I needed. I am so grateful for today.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 324 of 2015

Today I went to a discount store and when I was about to walk in I felt a very strong impression that something was there for me if I wanted it. I thought it was a weird impression. I walked through the door and was not there 1 full minute before I was presented with what I knew matched the impression. I was thrilled. RJ didn't question (I hadn't told him about the impression) and he had the cashier box it up for me. It felt so right I couldn't even argue. I brought it home and still feel that it was a gift from my Father. The item, to you, is weird but has come to mean a lot to our little family. It was a complete set for 12 of a beautiful China. For the price we paid I could not have gotten half the pieces. I am trying to bring back the tradition of family dinner and a nice table and linens. It has been fun for our family and has brought us closer as we all sit around a table with nice things. It makes one feel valued to be eating off something of value, to feel like you are special enough to have someone set a special table. This will be a great addition to our collection and hopefully become something our children cherish.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 323 of 2015

Today I was saved from a fall. I fell backwards getting out of my suburban after buckling our youngest in her seat belt. The fall should have been bad but I don't think I will have any lasting effect from it. I am grateful for the Lord cushioning my fall and also prompting me as I was falling so that I fell in a way that I was not severely injured. I know He protects me everyday from mishaps and I am happy I get to stick around for my family.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 322 of 2015

Today I was prompted to make a card for my oldest to remind her to remember to read and pray everyday (with ADHD we both have a hard time remembering and focusing). I placed it beside her work station. Later tonight RJ gave her a beautiful blessing and reminded her how important reading and praying was so she could obtain her own testimony. She looked at my card and a light went on. I know the Lord prompted me to make it so that she could make that connection with her blessing. It was fun to see it all come together. The Lord is in the details!

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 321 of 2015

Today while I was doing Sariah's history lesson with her it brought tears to my eyes. The Lord's hand in my life and every citizen of the United States is that we are free. We are free and it is all because of a loving Father who inspired men and woman to want something for themselves and their children and their descendants and their neighbors and their friends. They wanted equality and freedom. They wanted liberty from bondage. What a noble cause and what courage they displayed. I am so grateful for our freedoms and for the Lord who gave them to us. Also, for the men and women who sacrificed so much to make it a reality. God bless this nation every day.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 320 of 2015

Today we were able to go see our Mimi and have a family night with her. It was a wonderful night and I am so grateful the Lord inspired me to make the plans. I think it was needed for us and for Mimi. I know the Lord had a hand in it. He knows we need to relax and spend down time with each other to be happy and to be rested. I believe tonight helped all of us.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 319 of 2015

Today I was able to keep my temper in a difficult situation. Also, I was able to help a small child get away from a bully. I am so grateful the Lord put me in the right place at the right time to help. This little boy has already been through so much. The Lord loves him and was watching out for him.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 318 of 2015

I witness God's hand in my life everyday. I write about it and it gives me also a time to reflect on the day and see all my blessings. Today I saw family I normally don't see because they live a far distance. We had a great conversation. I am grateful the Lord placed me in a store at the exact time I needed to be there. It was awesome.

Also today, I wanted to add how I saw God in someone else's life that touched me. As I was at this same store I spoke of above I witnessed a woman collapse. She was elderly and she had just done too much and her body was letting her know it. The family with her became panicked and were trying to help her. It just so happened (I don't believe in coincidences) that a pair of paramedics were right there at this store getting groceries. They were right there on seen within seconds to help this woman. As I watched all this unfold I knew the Lord had placed us all there at the right time. The paramedics for this woman but also in a small way, me. I witnessed this act and saw God working in someone else's life and moments like that touch me just as much, sometimes more, than when I see it in my own life.

So to wrap up- one store, two tender mercies and many lives blessed. The Lord is in the details.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 317 of 2015

Today I got a confirmation from the Spirit about my children being home for school. My oldest child received her best report card. She has worked so hard and come so far in these few weeks. I am so grateful for the peace I felt as I watched her excitement and knew that this was where she was supposed to be. The Lord knows each of us and He knows what is best for us. He will let us know if we listen.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 316 of 2015

Today I was inspired how to help my mother retrieve some journal entries she thought she had lost forever. I am so grateful the Lord prompted me on where to look. I know that journal entries are important. I know the Lord wants us to keep a journal. It is important and He will help in any way He can.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 315 of 2015

Today I was able to go to a ballet performance with my three oldest and my RJ. It was a great experience on the whole and I am so grateful that we had the opportunity to go. I know the prompting I had to enroll the children in an online school was a good one. I know the Lord is watching over my children and helping me to do what is best for them.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 314 of 2015

I was able to run today on the treadmill. I know the Lord prodded me to do so because He knew I needed it physically and mentally. I am so glad I was able to get it done and that the Lord made it happen. Jogging is good for Heather.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 313 of 2015

Today my oldest had her birthday. She is a blessing in my life everyday. She is my helper and my friend. The Lord showed His tender mercy to me 11 years ago when He entrusted me with one of His choice spirits. I am grateful for that confidence. She may be small and she may be active but she is perfect to me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 312 of 2015

Today I made it to church when odds were against me. I was so grateful to get everything done and make it on time to church. I know it was the Spirit that helped kick me out of the house and got us there. I love church and I love to be there and listen and be happy. I knew I needed to take the sacrament and to renew my spirit so the nudges of the Spirit were appreciated.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 311 of 2015

Today my brother came and helped us fix our play castle in the backyard for the kids to play on. I am so grateful for the love and friendship that has been developed between my brother and his family and our family. The Lord has helped us both to grow and progress to where this bond is possible. My brother and his family has become one of our dearest group of friends.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 310 of 2015

Today I was able to have a last minute date with my husband. Totally awesome. I am so grateful the Lord put all things together to make it happen. We don't go out often because we love doing things as a family but it is really nice to get out and just be a couple sometimes.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 309 of 2015

Today I was able to use a scripture to teach a lesson. The kids learned a scripture in primary. I had totally forgotten until the Lord reminded me at the right time so I could use it to make the scriptures come alive and show that they are there to teach us.

God Loves You

Heather

Day 308 of 2015

Today I was able to get a lot done. I have been under the weather and it was so nice to have the strength to be able to do what I needed. I know I received that from the Lord along with a flare for multitasking to get the maximum out of my lower energy level. I didn't run a marathon but I did get everything done, which is also a great accomplishment.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 307 of 2015

Today I was able to make a really good soup. I am so grateful for the skill the Lord has given me in the kitchen. I am no chef and I don't claim to make the best food but the Lord has given me a talent for making good food. I can follow a recipe and improve it the next time to make it fit me and my family better. I was able to 'fix' a soup recipe today and it was very yummy. The Lord has given us so much to use to make great things and talent to make it.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 306 of 2015

Today I was able to get everything done even being in pain and having lack of energy because of a minor health issue. I am so grateful for all I got done and for the ease at which the day passed. The Lord blesses the willing at heart.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 305 of 2015

I am grateful for disagreements that end with family time because RJ and I listen to the promptings of the Spirit. We had a rough day around the house because of hyper children and some disobedience. Our weekly family dinner at my moms ended with us leaving in a huff because of our children misbehaving. RJ and I both calmed down after we got home and then talked honestly with our children and expressed our feelings and concerns for them. It ended well and we all had a good night after that. It was great. I love that the Lord will help anytime we need with a little Parental advice.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 304 of 2015

The Lord has blessed us today with our car passing inspection one more year. We have older cars and they all run but sometimes we have to put some work into them to get them to pass inspection to be licensed. We are very blessed in that we have always owned our cars and have no car payment but the trade off is that they are older and need some maintenance every once and a while. We thought we would have to make a few repairs this time, which we might not have the funds for but our car passed. I am so grateful for this tender mercy.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 303 of 2015

Today the kids were able to have a fun party for Halloween even though they no longer attend a brick and mortar school. RJ's sweet mother designed and put it on for the kids. They had a great time. The Lord blessed us today with a fun party and blessed us with a great family.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 302 of 2015

Today I am grateful for a working heater! I think I take for granted all my comforts. Today was cold I am so grateful the Lord has blessed me with shelter and a heater.

God Loves You

Heather

Day 301 of 2015

Today my sweet mother took care of dinner for me so I did not have to because I have been sick along with my children. It took a weight off my shoulders. I am grateful for her love and that the Lord prompted her to take care of it.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 300 of 2015

Today I was able to get my dogs taken care of at the vet. This made me think about how grateful I am that the Lord blessed me with great dogs. They truly have been good dogs and are a part of our family.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 299 of 2015

Today I was able to finish a project that was important to me. I was able to have the energy and materials to do so. I am grateful for the energy the Lord gave me. Also, the kids had the day off from school so I could just concentrate on that while the kids took a break.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 298 of 3015

Today I was able to spend time with my family including my parents and brother and his family and my niece. I love my family and am grateful for everyday the Lord lets me spend with them. We have a good time together and I pray we always will.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 297 of 2015

Today I was able to spend time with many wonderful ladies. I am grateful that the Lord organized the Relief Society. The Lord knows that women need each other to be able to lift each other and help each other. I am grateful that I went to the activity today and was able to have a good time.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 296 of 2015

Today I was able to go on a date with my husband. This happens far less than I want it to. I love being with him and spending time with him and being able to focus just on him. I am very grateful that the Lord made it possible that we could be together. He provided sitters and time and a place to go. It was a good night.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 295 of 2015

Today a prayer was answered for our family that we had been praying for. For over a month we have prayed and fasted and today we got a good result. I am grateful for the answer to prayer, even when we haven't been as patient as we could have been. He loves us, even through our weaknesses.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 294 of 2015

Today the kids were able to do all their work and we had an outing. The Lord has really been strengthening my oldest. She is getting better at being on task. This has been helpful to me and my sanity. I really can see the Lord's hand everyday in their schooling and my ability to help them.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 293 of 2015

Today I was able to help the kids get all their work done before RJ got home and they had free time. This hasn't happened since they started home school. I was very grateful for the help we all had from the Lord so we could prioritize our time and use it wisely.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 292 of 2015

Today I was saved, again, while jogging. My legs were very tired and didn't want to jog. While I was jogging I didn't pick my foot up high enough to go over a rise in the side walk. I was jogging with my  100 lbs Labrador. For all purposes it should not have turned out well. I know the physical laws of gravity and momentum and all that great stuff. With my momentum and gravity working very well and also the momentum of a 100 lbs dog jogging ahead I should have been on the ground with a much flatter face than God blessed me with. The Lord granted me a tender mercy and I caught myself before I fell and also my dog stopped as a stumbled so he was not pulling on the leash. With the extra strength given my legs to catch myself and without the force of a run away dog I am not injured. The Lord blesses His children in ways we don't even pick up on sometimes. This time I knew He was there.

God Loves You!

Day 291 of 2015

Today I was able to see my niece and visit with her. I am grateful the Lord gave me this opportunity. She broke her leg last week and I haven't been able to see her or talk with her much. It was very nice to be able to see her and see she is okay. I am grateful for her in my life and that the Lord blessed me with a chance to be so involved in her life.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 290 of 2015

Today I was saved from serious injury and so was my dog. I was out jogging with my 100 lbs Labrador when a neighbors dog, who was out in his yard with his owner, came running in full attack mode at my dog. Both dogs were large and both were upset. I know the Lord prompted me on how to react and also I believe He promoted my dog. The other dog lunged at my dog and my dog clobbered him and the other dog just turned and jogged back home and into his own house. I was amazed. I have been involved in many dog fights and have never seen one end so abruptly and with no injury. I am so grateful the Lord was with me and my pooch.

God Loves You!

Day 289 of 2015

Today I was able to bring comfort to my husband. You may be asking, "How is that God's hand in YOUR life?" It is very simple. The Lord blessed me with an incredible man. When he is hurting, I am hurting. The Lord has blessed me with a gift of being able to calm my husband and bring him some peace when storms rage around him. I know this is a spiritual gift from my Father and I am so grateful I can use it to help the man I chose for eternity.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 288 of 2015

Today my oldest finally got caught up in school and was able to actually enjoy her vacation day. I am so grateful for the Lord helping both of us make it through her stuff so that we could all have a break. We have sorely needed one.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 287 of 2015

Today was a lot better than yesterday. I know it is because the Lord granted me so many tender mercies. He was with me helping me to get the tasks done that I needed to. I am very grateful for the 180 difference of today.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 286 of 2015

Today I had an inspired talk with my oldest about self esteem and how important we are to our Heavenly Father. It made me so grateful for the love of our Heavenly Parents and what that teaches me about being a good parent. I will never be perfect while in mortality but I know I can give it my best and the Lord will make up the difference. He who has never failed, I know, will never fail me, or my children.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 285 of 2015

Today I was able to get up and exercise this morning when I really didn't want to. I know the Lord helped kick me out of bed. He knows better than I do how I need it and how much my body likes it. So, I am grateful for motivation when I really didn't have any this morning.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 284 of 2015

Today I received a witness of the pure love of Christ in a small child.  I know that he chose to come down and receive a limited mental capacity and be in a less than perfect family environment because his spirit is strong enough. He didn't want someone else to be hurt. This boy is so sweet. I am so grateful for the knowledge I have that he will be whole someday. Today he is just a sweet boy but someday he will suffer no more.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 283 of 2015

Today I got a lot done that I wanted to and I didn't really have the physical strength I needed to do it but it needed to be done. The Lord knew I was just going to do it and He showed me a tender mercy by giving me the strength I needed to get it all done. I didn't even collapse. I am so grateful for the added strength and support I received from Him.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 282 of 2015

Life throws you curve balls and seems to like to do it one after another. RJ and I received many reports of bad news today. I know that the Lord has been with us both prompting us to act in such a way as to help all involved. I am so grateful for the gift of the Holy Ghost. I seriously don't know how I would survive sane and healthy without it. I could possibly not even be on this earth as it has warned me of danger more times than I can count. I am so grateful for the Lord's active hand in our lives.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 281 of 2015

Today was the birthday of our little sunshine. Our 3rd child is such a ray of joy. She radiates love and happiness to people. Strangers in the store have noticed it and I get comments all the time. She has been a blessing to this family since time began. I am so grateful that the Lord trusted her special spirit to me and that I get to be honored by being her momma. All children, if we look properly, can show us the hand of God in our lives because they live so close to Him. She shows me faith everyday and how to live it. I know God loves me because I have my children.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 280 of 2015

Today I was able to help a sister of mine with a little problem she was having. She needed an ear to listen and I am glad I was there. I felt prompted to say some things I felt the Lord wanted her to hear. I am grateful for the Lord being there when I needed some guidance. I believe she got off the phone a little lighter and hopefully feeling love and hope.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 279 of 2015

Today the Lord has blessed my temperament. I usually get very snappy under stress but I have been much better today and I know it is because the Lord has helped to calm my inner storm. Being a stay at home mom AND home school teacher is a hard adjustment but today was a good day and we got a lot done because the Lord helped me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 278 of 2015

Today the Lord blessed me with being a 2nd and 5th grade teacher. This learning curve of being a learning coach for my children as they do their courses online is a hard one. The Lord has been with me and has enlightened me and strengthened me. I am so grateful for His extra dose of patience today. 

God Loves You!

Heather 

Day 273-277 of 2015

I have been camping since Wednesday so here are all my posts from those days. I wrote them down so I could post them when we came back to civilization. 

273-

Today I was prompted to help a little girl find her mom. She didn't know me and ran from me but I was prompted to follow her until she met up with her mom. Our neighborhood is all interconnected so I knew she would run to her mom at some point but I just felt she needed some watching over. I don't know if anything would have happened but I am grateful I followed the promoting and she got safe back to her mom. Sometimes you don't know why the Lord asks you to help, especially when it seems the help is unnecessary, but I know I did the right thing and I am grateful that the little girl made it back. Children are so special to our Father. 

274-

Today the Lord blessed our camping trip. The kids all got along and no one got hurt. The temperature was perfect. The mountains were beautiful. All these elements combined to make a wonderful experience for the kids and I am so grateful for that tender mercy so that our children will have pleasant memories. 

275-

Today our prayer was answered and a major storm was diverted long enough for us to get breakfast done because the prayer and faith of my mother. While we were standing and waiting and hoping the storm would not hit us my mother suggested we pray. Cooking outside while camping you are a little vulnerable. After the prayer my mother uttered, it calmed a bit and we had just enough time to finish breakfast before it started to really pour. I am so grateful for the faith of a good mother and for the attention of a loving Father. 

276-

Today two members of my family were saved from serious injury by tender mercies from the Lord. First, my dad was saved when he was trying to put away the wet side by side car he brought to drive. Only one tire slipped off the truck and he was not injured but it should have been much worse. Then, later in the day, my daughter was playing with all the other kids and was climbing on a log and fell off and poked a stick clean through her shirt and it honestly should have went into her but the Lord was with her and she only received a scratch that didn't even break her skin. I am so grateful for His watchful eye when we are away from home, and always.

277-

A lot of people have told me that a good thing to do when you are preparing for General Conference (semi annual conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) is to prepare a question you want answered and listen to see if it is answered. I was actually guaranteed it would be answered. I have never done it. I honestly could never think of a question. It's like when someone asks you what you want for your birthday and you can't come up with anything but the moment you walk in a store and it's after your birthday you find a ton of stuff. I just can't think of stuff on the spot. My mind goes blank. So this conference I thought of a question. This was not a trial of my faith or a deal breaker if it did not get answered, it was more curiosity. Today, when Pres. Monson spoke,  He answered my question. It was Pres. Monson's voice but I know the answer came from the Lord. I am grateful for modern day prophets and modern day revelation and that we can ask questions and receive answers. 

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 272 of 2015

I am grateful for the quick moments of inspiration while helping my children with their homework. I have found that I am NOT smarter than a fifth grader and I need all the help I can get to quickly and effectively help them with their work so that it does not take us forever to get through a day. The Lord is with me the whole day prompting and guiding me. The Spanish taking out the Native Americans never was one of my favorite stories but I helped my oldest get through it and she even got 100 on her test. Tender mercies are everywhere if you stop to look.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 271 of 2015

Today I was able to have patience and knowledge while trying to help my daughter understand math. Math has always been a struggle for her. I don't honesty know why. Today she had an end of level test and it was very apparent she was not understanding questions. I sat down and read them with her and felt inspired at times on how to help her visually get a concept so she could answer the question. We will be working on math a lot but today I was grateful for the extra help from Heaven so I could help her.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 270 of 2015

Today I awoke in a bad mood. Through constant prayer and prayers of my sweet husband it finally lift. It took most of the day but I was able to smile again by the end. I am so grateful for prayer and for the concern the Lord has even for my mood for the day. I know He loves me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 269 of 2015

Today was women's conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I love this conference. It is twice a year. I always feel so happy and I can feel the Savior's love for me and for all of us. The men and women who lead this church are truly inspired. I am so grateful for the opportunity to go and for the Lord organizing it. It lifted my spirit and soothed my soul.

God Loves You!

Day 268 of 2015

Today I felt strengthened and blessed as I accomplished all I needed to do- household chores, the kids school work, a dinner party and more homework. I am so grateful for the Lord's strengthening hand and for His always present support. I multitasked brilliantly and was very proficient. That is not to brag up me but to bring to the point that it wasn't me. I know the Lord was the one prompting my actions and assisting me work. I love help from on high.

God Loves You!

I am grateful for all the inventions He has inspired to make that possible.

Day 266 of 2015

Today I was able to get some muffins made for my sweet Mimi. I have not been able to find the time and honestly, today should not have worked out so I could but the Lord knew how important it was to me so He made it happen. I am so very happy that she got her muffins before tomorrow.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 265 of 2015

Day 264 of 2015

Today I took our oldest to the doctor and was waiting. The Lord made it possible for my husband to leave work and surprise us. I am so grateful because while there he was able to give our daughter a blessing so that she could be strong enough to get through the all the shots and blood being drawn, very intimidating for a 10 year old. The Lord blessed us with so many things at her appointment. I am so very grateful.

God Loves You!

Day 263 of 2015

Today we had I little scare with our oldest. She had a seizure and fell off a chair while eating. I am very grateful that the Lord helped bring peace to her heart and also He made it so she didn't choke on the mouthful of food she was chewing while she was not in control of her muscles.

Day 259 of 2015

Today the Lord looked after my brother. He is special needs and his work dropped him off at the wrong location and no one knew about the mistake for 45 minutes. I hurried over and he was locked out and in the rain. The Lord protected him and kept him safe and warm until I got there. I am grateful for the prompting to check why his transport was late and I am grateful for the neighbor who was home and could sit with my sleeping child while I went and found him. The Lord was with us today.

God Loves You!

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 256 of 2015

Today the Lord kicked me out of bed to go to church. I was not feeling well and I could have stayed home. I didn't really want to though. I wanted to go and I wanted to feel the Spirit and be with my family so I am grateful the Lord gave me a push out of bed and that I went. Especially since I forgot my daughter was giving a talk in primary. She did a wonderful job and I would have missed it. The Lord is good.

Day 248 of 2015

Today my keys were lost. I had a certain mindset and thought that they had been lost by a certain child at a certain time. As the night progressed we checked everywhere and couldn't find them. 2 hours went by and no keys. I said a few silent prayers throughout all of this and finally I am standing thinking and the Lord prompted me to ask a question of what I thought. What if it wasn't one child but another at a totally different time of the day that used my keys? If that was the case then we had been searching the wrong area. I went with the prompting and the keys were found within 5 minutes. I am so grateful for the answer to prayers. Especially when we are so certain we know what happened. I am grateful He still tries to get through our pride and touch us with the correct answer.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 247 of 2015

Today I was prompted to start doing the chores I normally do on Monday today. I thought it was not needed but I had time so I did them.

Now because of a sweet prompting from the Lord I can enjoy more time with my family because I got a lot of stuff done today.

God Loves You!

Day 246 of 2015

Today while making homemade spaghetti sauce to jar and put away I almost sliced into my hand.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 230 of 2015

Today I was thinking about why I know so many good people who seem to be always having trials and getting the short end of the stick and I know so many who are not the greatest people and they don't seem to have as many things go wrong for them. I was questioning the logic of it all and just.... Why? The Lord blessed me with an answer that enlightened me and then made me feel kinda silly for not just knowing it. Those good people use the trials to make them better. The Lord is polishing His diamonds and they really do shine for all the world. The people I know who have gone through some tough stuff and smiled and praised God, they are a light. They just shine. Those who choose the path of least resistance and who find fault with everything, those the Lord leaves alone. If He tried them it would only make them more bitter and turn from Him. He does not push them into activity because He might loose them all together. So, if you have trials in your life and you feel kinda picked on just remember you are one of the few the Lord is polishing. He will make you into something so beautiful and full of light if you will just close your mouth and let Him work.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 229 of 2015

God Loves You!

Day 219 of 2015

Today I was able to keep my mouth shut when usually I don't. You know how angels came and shut the lions mouths for Daniel? Today was kind of like that. I would have had problems if I had talked.

I am so grateful for all the happiness the Gospel of Christ brings to me. Everyday the Lord blesses me with comfort and knowledge to handle daily problems and concerned I have. He prompts me to action when need be and fills my mouth when I communicate with others. I am so grateful for this daily help with little things that in the end make up my whole journey here on earth.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 217 of 2015

Today I was able to spend some time with a sister of mine and have a good talk. I love times when I can sit down and have a quality talk with someone. I am grateful the Lord has presented me the opportunity to have more time with this sister. I am looking forward to the Lord helping our relationship to develop more.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 216 of 2015

Today I was able to help a friend by being promoted to remove something from her house that would have caused problems later on in the day. I am grateful she went along with the promoting and I was there to help.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 215 of 2015

Today I read a quote that really touched my heart and made me love the Doctrine and Covenants even more than I did before. These little tender mercies were the Lord sends me the right quote at the right time to make an impact on my heart and mind are wonderful. It made my Monday better.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 214 of 2015

Today I was able to teach my Sunday school class (it's not mine anymore as they have a new set of teachers but I still feel a connection with them) again by subbing for their new teachers. I love these kids so much and it was a tender mercy for me to be able to teach them again and feel of their love and trust for me. The Lord loves the youth. I know He does. I have felt that and I know that as fact. The youth are major concern for Him. I feel so blessed that He trusted me as their teacher and has made it so that I can still sub in the class sometimes but still be fulfilling my other calling as well. The Lord knows what makes each of us personally happy. He doesn't have a deck of cards and randomly pulls something out of the 'happy deck' to bless us with. He blesses us in a personal way that He knows will touch our hearts and fill us with joy. He did that for me today.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 2013 of 2015

Today I was blessed to get the things done I wanted to. The Lord made my day efficient and I am grateful for all I did get done. He helped me prioritize my time and it all worked out.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 2012 of 2015

The Lord has blessed me today in my correspondence with a friend. I feel I was guided as to what to say. It was nothing overly emotional or stressful or an emergency but I felt the Spirit whisper to me what to write. I hope that it touched her heart as it did mine as I wrote it. I am so grateful for the infinite wisdom of our Father and His help in what seems to be small matters that sometimes turn out to be big matters to us. I know He loves all of His children.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 211 of 2015

Today I was able to give blood. I am grateful that the Lord has provided a way for us to help those who are in need when they are injured or sick. I am grateful for the opportunity that I had to go. The Lord has blessed me in so many ways, one being that I am strong and healthy, so I am so happy that He lets me share my blessing of good health with someone else.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 210 of 2015

Today I was able to stay up instead of giving up on my morning and going back to bed. It was really nice. I read my scriptures and everything before the kids even got up. I was so much more productive. I am so grateful the Lord helped me stay up and awake so I could have a good morning.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 209 of 2015

Today I was able to accomplish a project I wanted to get done. My dad gave me some material he bought years ago, so long he can't even remember when or why, to reupholster my kitchen chairs. I didn't have the money to get any and was so happy for the donation. When I got the material home I found it matched the color of my cabinets perfectly. My dad never would have known this color was what I needed since he bought the material years before I even bought my house. I am grateful that the Lord knows the little things make for order in a house and He blessed us with the material. He is always in the details.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 208 of 2015

Today we got to reconnect with some really great friends,who moved states away, tonight. It was fun to be with them and to have a wonderful evening. The Lord has put so many good people in our lives and they are a wonderful blessing. I am so grateful for the opportunity He gave us tonight to be with them.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 207 of 2015

Today was a great day. I felt the spirit so many times and could write about so many things but I think I will pick seeing my good friends at church. I came out of the chapel and was so excited to see them there! I am so grateful the Lord had me come out at that moment so I could see them and have their little girl come with me to primary. Our friendship has grown with this couple over the past year and I am so grateful for it. The Lord has blessed us to have gained wonderful friends who I hope stay good friends for life.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 206 of 2015

Today the Lord blessed us with beautiful weather for our family reunion.  It was cool in the shade instead of just less hot and the general temperature was pleasant. We had a great time.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 205 of 2015

Today was a great day. The Lord blessed our family with a down day that we really needed. We had no plans and nowhere we had to be. We got to stay home and enjoy each other for the most part of the day. I am grateful for these little times where the Lord blesses us to slow down and to breathe.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 204 of 2015

Forgot to post this yesterday, sorry! So, I was blessed with help with my attitude. I silently prayed for help to better my mood. Hormones cause me to be a bit short. I wanted help so that I could have a good day and not upset other people's day. The Lord blessed me with comfort and joy so that I could improve my attitude. Today was a good day.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 203 of 2015

I am so grateful for the rain to water my garden. Along with that, the Lord gave me some wonderful shade as I worked outside today for 2 hours before the rain. It made it easier with the cloud cover. I love when the Lord blesses us with rain and cooler temps in the summer.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 202 of 2015

Today I had energy to accomplish what I needed to even though I have not been sleeping well. I was even able to exercise. I know this came from the Lord and I am very grateful!

God Loves You!

Day 201 of 2015

Today we found an item for RJ that he has wanted for awhile but we couldn't afford. We found it for $8. I know the Lord led us to it because of His love and Him wanting to reward RJ for being a good son. The Lord is always waiting to reward us, not punish us and He is very happy when He gets opportunity. I am grateful for His love for my family and for helping me to help them be happy.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 200 of 2015

I am so grateful today for a wonderful husband that will take my kids and let me sleep. I have had people overload over the past two months and today I am just tired. Another fun weekend with family and friends but very tiring emotionally for me. I am exhausted. The Lord blessed me with a wonderful husband who is taking the kids and putting them to bed so I can go to bed early. What a blessing. I am so grateful the Lord prompted him to let me rest. I am falling asleep as I write this even. The Lord is wonderful and my husband's my favorite blessing.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 199 of 2015

Today we had a sweet experience with our oldest that only came because of promptings from the Spirit to talk with her. She has much anxiety for one so small and it gives us opportunities to bond with her and help her often. I am so grateful for the Spirit and its whisperings.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 198 of 2015

Today I was grateful for time to think on some passed blessings given to our family. I was grateful the Lord blessed me with this time of silence to reflect and to read. I enjoyed the spirit I felt and the love of the Lord.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 197 of 2015

Today was fun. My oldest had some family questionnaires that she asked my parents. It was fun watching her interview them and seeing their responses. I am grateful the Lord gave me such a sweet daughter to enjoy and be with as her 'assistant' while she was the 'investigator'. I am truly blessed with the posterity I have.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 196 of 2015

I am blessed to have cousins near by for my kids to play with. The Lord blessed me with family close. My kids loved having a play date with their cousin up at his house today. I know they will have more fun with him on other days. Family is ordained of God and such a blessing to have.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 195 of 2015

Today I was able to type a blessing I had received. I am so grateful for the technology that the Lord has given us so that I can record my blessings. I never remember all of what is said so I love to go back and type it up. I learn from the blessings everything I read them. I am so grateful for the priesthood that the Lord has given His children.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 194 of 2015

Today I was helped by my 2nd mom on a errand that needed to be done. I would not have been able to do it without her. I am so grateful that the Lord prompted me to call her and that He gave me such a great mom to help me.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 193 of 2015

Today I was able to listen to my cousin speak. He is such a sweet boy. I am amazed at how the Lord works in the lives of others and the good that is still to be had among His children. I am grateful He blessed me with the opportunity to listen to my cousin and for His spirit in the meeting.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 192 of 2015

Today I was blessed with further knowledge about someone who has passed on and who is very dear to me. I was so relieved and grateful to hear what I did and it brings get comfort to my soul. I am grateful for the Lord blessing us with knowledge.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 191 of 2015

Today I was blessed in many ways. First, it is my 8th wedding anniversary. 8 years and I still can't get enough of him. Also, RJ was able to get the day off so we got to spend time as a family. We were able to have dinner with Mimi, which has been our tradition for 5 years now. Every time I turned around we were being blessed by something. It was a great day.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 190 of 2015

I am so grateful for all the rain the Lord has blessed us with. It has watered our very dry land and has cooled temperatures. I am so grateful for the love He has for not only His children but all His creations. He is a very loving God.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 189 of 2015

I am very grateful for the love of God for everyone. I am grateful that the Lord gives us opportunities to change and also to watch the change of heart in others. The Lord has blessed me with a friend who I am able to watch make baby's steps back to the path of the Gospel. It is a miracle to see the changes in her and those around her. She had surgery today and the blessing she received before hand has come to pass. The Lord truly does love everyone.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 188 of 2015

I am grateful for the sealing power and that my family is sealed together forever. I am grateful for the emotional bond which it creates with my family and I. I was speaking with my brother about this subject today as he recently got married and it just reminded me how blessed I really am to be with my family forever. God loves families.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 187 of 2015

I am very grateful for family. I am so very blessed to live by so many of them. Today I got to see both sets of my parents, my grandmother, three of my brothers, two of my sisters, one of my nephews and a very close cousin who is like a brother. All in one day. I amazed at how blessed I am to be able to do all of that on a normal day. No special family gathering or reunion, just saying Hi. The Lord knew where I would be happiest and I am glad I listened.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 186 of 2015

Today I recieved a blessing along with my mother. We both are a little sad because of my brother. Joe would have turned 41 today. He got to have his party in heaven. The blessings RJ was prompted to give made us both feel better. I am grateful for that because it is also my nieces birthday and that is a celebration. We wanted to be happy for her day. I am grateful for the comfort the Lord gave us so that we didn't waste our day on regrets.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 185 of 2015

Today I am very grateful for this wonderful, beautiful, free country the Lord has blessed me to live in all my life. The 4th of July will always hold a special place in my heart because it reminds me of all the great blessings I have living in this country. I am only here and we only have these freedoms because of the grace and blessing of the Lord. God bless America!

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 184 of 2015

Today I was able to go to the store without children. This was so very nice. I usually only get it once a week but I cherish time with my mom with no kids. I am grateful the Lord blessed me with the opportunity to go today. We had a good time.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 183 of 2015

I am very blessed. I was thinking and discussing with my husband tonight about how blessed we are. We do not have new cars, we did not buy a house in good condition, we have 4 children (who take a lot of money to raise), we don't have high paying jobs, etc. By world standards we should be miserable and poor and living off of the state. We are not. We are independent, we are happy, we are optimistic. The Lord has blessed and sustained us through so much and has never turned from us but always toward us. My heart swells with how much gratitude I have for all I have. The Lord truly does bless those who obey and follow Him.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 182 of 2015

Today I am grateful for peace when I need it. I was having a conversation and someone said something that in past years would have bothered me but today I felt immediate peace and a confidence that all was well. I am grateful for those times when I receive the Comforter and am at peace.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 181 of 2015

I am grateful for ideas I have. I know that most of my great ideas are whisperings of the Spirit. The Lord is in the details and I know He helps me to become the best and most efficient Heather I can be.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 180 of 2015

Today the Lord helped me find a set of keys that we don't have doubles for. They go to the locks on our fence to the garden. We keep it locked so the kids and dogs can't get in. I lost them outside and was prompted as to where to look for them, which is good since there was a lot of places to look.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 179 of 2015

Today I was able to listen to our Stake Pres. speak and that is always a good thing. He is such a great man and he has a wonderful testimony. He can bring the Spirit into a meeting or just strengthen it. I am very blessed to have such a humble servant petitioning the Lord on my behave. I am also grateful for the witness I have received that this man is truly one of the Lord chosen.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 178 of 2015

Today I had a get together for my Sunday school kids and it went great. The Lord blessed me with these wonderful kids to be friends with and I am so grateful for the opportunity I have had to be their teacher. I am so grateful for all who came and the fun time the Lord blessed us with.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 177 of 2015

Sorry, I apparently forgot to post for yesterday. So here it is.

I am grateful that the Lord has provided us with family that we were not born with. Family that we can choose. Some call them friends but mine I call family. I have one such friend that we have adopted as one of our brothers. He is making a life long choice by getting married and I couldn't be more happy for him. He invited us to the family dinner before hand and we were honored to go and support him. I am grateful the Lord has placed him in our life.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 176 of 2015

I was inspired on what to say to help my niece calm down from a emotional situation. I was grateful for the help from above and again reminded of how happy and blessed I was to have such good parents in my teenage years.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 175 of 2015

I am grateful for a loving Heavenly Father that has taught me how to work and to enjoy working. I am trying to teach this principle to my children and I know I got some of my ethic from my parents but I also know the Lord gave me the gift of doing a job and wanting it done right. My husband calls it OCD but whatever it is makes me a better person and harder worker for it so I am grateful.

God Loves You!

Heather 

Day 174 of 2015

So many of my posts are the same, well the same type of tender mercy that the Lord blesses me with. Most of the time the tender mercies are simple and not life altering in and of themselves. That is one things above all that I have had my testimony strengthened of these last almost 2 years I have done this. The Lord is in our lives everyday making small miracles happen that when stacked together make our lives happy and enriched. Tender mercies from the Lord can be as simple as someone in the store being prompted to smile at you when your day is bad, very simple but has a huge impact on your day. So, sorry if you don't like my redundancy but this is what makes my life. The small, simple everyday ways the Lord is there. Today it was just the simple whisperings of how to comfort my child who was crying. I am a seasoned mother of 4. I do this everyday but everyday I know I am given the strength, patience and knowledge I need to be the best I can be. The Lord always takes something and makes it better.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 173 of 2015

I had a prompting pop in my head as to something special for my last lesson on Sunday and I shared it with my team teacher, who is also being released, and she had had the same prompting and she isn't even going to be there Sunday! I love when you get a witness of the sweet whisperings of the Spirit by someone else get the same prompting. It was another testimony to me that this team teacher and I were inspired to work together and that we tried our best. I will really miss working with her.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 172 of 2015

Today I got released from a calling and called to a new one. I am grateful for the experience I had with being called. I was given a confirmation and know this was my path. The Lord blessed me to be at peace with the change before I even knew what to think. I really wanted to be sad and wallow but it just didn't come. I feel the Lord's love and I know this new calling will be very challenging but I also know it is where I need to be.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 171 of 2015

Today I was able to go to a reunion for my husband's side of the family and I felt the spirit whisper to me, as it does so often, how important family is. Family is the framework of life and happiness. Family is the work of a lifetime. I am so grateful the Lord has blessed me with this knowledge and with the wonderful family I have.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 170 of 2015

Today I was able to spend time with my niece. I love that girl. I have been part of taking care of her all of her life. She is like a daughter to me. I was grateful to spend time with her today and that the Lord has sent her to our family.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 169 of 2015

Today I made it to the temple. I love that place! It is so peaceful and wonderful. All the people there are happy and nice. It's what I imagine a bit of heaven is. I am so grateful that the Lord helped to make it possible. My mom took me and my other mom watched my kids. It was a great start to the day.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 168 of 2015

Today I was kept sane when my day didn't go as planned. I know the patience and the energy I did receive was from the Lord. He stepped in and helped me to be a better person than I normally am.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 167 of 2015

Today I saved lots of money by being promoted to go to another store for what we needed. Our house  gets very hot in the summer and we don't have central air. So to make everyone more comfortable we have fans all over the house. Last year we had to retire them because after four years of constant use three months out of the year they died. It was time to get some more. By being promoted to go to a different store for my purchase I saved over $45. I am very grateful for the Lord always looking out for my budget.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 166 of 2015

Today I felt impressed to mow our lawn for RJ. He was going to do it tonight but I wanted to make it be one less thing he had to think of. The feeling didn't leave me alone so I went out and did it. Wasn't planning on it when the day began but when a prompting pushes you, you do it. I am very grateful for it because we had a wonderful time at his brother's house for FHE and so we stayed later than we normally do on a weeknight and it started to downpour and thunder. He wouldn't have gotten it done. Is it something small. Yes but it meant something to him. So I am very grateful the Lord prompted me to do it.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 165 of 2015

Today we had a beautiful Sunday school lesson on the temple and how important it is. I am so grateful for the Lord pouring out His spirit during the lesson and for the joy I felt. The temple of the Lord is one of the best places to be.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 161, 162, 163 and 164 of 2015

I have been on vacation with no wifi so I am sorry for not posting daily but I do have a post for each day and will combine them all here.

Day 160- We had a little miracle. We have a hole in one of the skylights in our trailer. RJ taped it before we left but after the drive it had blown off and the hole was exposed. I saw it that morning and thought, 'I hope it doesn't rain.' Well, it poured while we were out driving. We were not anywhere near our trailer. We got back and we were making dinner when I looked up and saw that the repair was in place and no water had entered our trailer. I asked RJ when he had fixed it and he stated he hadn't. No one touched our roof...yet the tape was now back over the hole and had made it so no water entered our trailer during the down pour. I know Who fixed it. I am very grateful.

Day 161- I was inspired to try something with an iPhone and some binoculars. The Lord put the idea in my head and I went with it. Because of that I got footage and pictures of a black bear and her two cubs from about a quarter mile away on my phone. iPhones have bad zoom for far away. I had the camera pointed through the binoculars and it worked. I couldn't leave the car to go get closer so this was a tender mercy to be able to record this for my kids to see since they couldn't see the bear at all. The Lord made our vacation very fun.

Day 162- We had a run in with a bison on our Boardwalk. I was carrying our youngest in a pack on my back and would not have been able to get away easily. The bison decided to walk on and then block our path without warning. We couldn't get away and just stood there waiting to see what it was going to do. It finally left the path and left us alone. I believe harm might have come to someone on that Boardwalk had the Lord not intervened. I am so grateful He is there to help us when we are with some of His wonderful creations.

Day 163- We have made it home safe and our car lasted the whole trip with not one single problem. This is a miracle because our car is old and has many miles. It also does not have a huge engine to be pulling a trailer with. The Lord I know blessed our car to work properly. I know prayers are answered and that the Lord helps us even on leisurely activities. He knows we need the time to relax and de-stress.

I am grateful for the Lord being with us our whole trip. I know it was enjoyable and a great experience because of Him. Without His help we would have been left to our own devices and that never works out well for me. I am very blessed.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 160 of 2015

Today I got to Costco right as they opened and was the first in line to leave. This was amazing and awesome since I had lots to do and I needed to get back home. A trip to Costco there and back in 15 minutes, I say, is a tender mercy.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 159 of 2015

Today we received some funds for our vacation this summer. I have been praying for a way that we could still go with our family. A vacation for a family of 6 is not cheap. I am so very grateful for the Lord hearing my prayers and for the wonderful people who responded to the prompting and were able to help out.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 158 of 2015

Today I felt the Spirit as I taught my lesson and I am so grateful for that. I prayed for Him to fill my mouth and He did. It pays to have a great Instructor.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 157 of 2015

Today we got a lot done. I am grateful for the trailer the Lord promoted us to buy. I am grateful for a fully working body with strong muscles that the Lord gave me and a testimony of hard work. I am grateful for great neighbors who are willing to help when needed. I am grateful for the Holy Ghost's promptings so I could help a neighbor today. The Lord is truly in the little things of life.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 156 of 2015

I am grateful for days with play and fun. I am grateful the Lord blessed me with such a wonderful family. My husband is so great with our kids. They all sword fought with daddy today and had a blast. The Lord blessed our family with a bond and love that I cherish. Now, it has not come easy. We have worked at it but with the Lord's help and with His blessing we have become strong and we are wonderfully connected.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 155 of 2015

Today I am happy with what my body can do. I was jogging around my mother's neighborhood and I was honestly thinking of how I looked and what others might be thinking of me. Then the Spirit spoke to me and let me know that I was very blessed because I could jog around the neighborhood. I was physically able to do so. Some are not that blessed. Also, I have worked on my endurance. I am strong. I may have some cushion over that muscle but I am getting better. So I finished my jog with gratitude for the blessings the Lord has given me with a strong and healthy body.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 154 of 2015

Today I was inspired when making a recipe. That seems little I know but it makes it even cooler to me. I wanted to make something and I set out to do it. I hit a wall and the Lord let me know how to get around it. He is even concerned when I am making a recipe. What a wonderful Father we have. He is concerned about wars and global disasters but still takes the time to be one on one with His children and help them with little things.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 153 of 2015

Today I was very grateful for the little watch phones that the Lord inspired us to get for our kids. I send it to school with them everyday. If they don't answer after 10 rings it answers automatically. My oldest forgot to call me and tell me she got to school okay and so I called the phone and she didn't hear it so it answered itself but I could hear her at the school talking with her friends. The phone also has a gps in it so I tracked her and she was on the school grounds. This gave me great comfort. These little watches have been a great investment and I am so very grateful the Lord prompted us to get them.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 152 of 2015

Today I have had some great insights on how to plan my lesson for Sunday. I love when the Lord helps me with my planning. It gives me confidence.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 151 of 2015

Today I was very glad that I responded to the prompting to not stay home with my sick kids and let RJ take care of that while I went to church. Not only was I needed there but four of my Sunday school kids talked today in sacrament. I would have been so sad if I had missed them. I know that it was a tender mercy pushing me out the door. I am so very grateful that I went and that the Lord gave me the little push I needed.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 150 of 2015

Today I saw tender mercies when I went grocery shopping. Almost everything we needed was on sale and I saved a lot of money. I am so grateful to the Lord for looking out for the little things.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 149 of 2015

Today I am grateful for patience far beyond my capacity. My littlest one has been sick and even though I have been frustrated with how much I have not gotten done the Lord has calmed my heart and nerves and helped me to be calm with my little one. It surprises me every time with how disagreeable they can be. I should not be surprised but I am. As a mother of four I am very grateful to the Lord for the added attention on my part.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 148 of 2015

A blessing that has been ongoing in my life for a year is my niece's 180. She has totally changed. She went from having f's and an IED in school to no IED and has gotten a 4.0. She was student of the week. We just went to an award ceremony for the graduates of her middle school and she was one of the ones chosen to speak. The Lord has blessed her life so much and I am so grateful for the answer to prayer and fasting. I do have to say she kept her spunk during her speech though...she took a selfie of herself and the crowd when she got done. That's my girl. I cherish her and am so grateful to see the Lord in her life and His answer to many prayers on her behave.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 147 of 2015

Today I was able to go to a performance of the Vista Voices. It is the choir that my sister is in for school. This was her last performance because she has graduated. I can not say enough how cute and special these kids are. The performance was really great. I am so grateful the Lord blessed us with loved ones with imperfect bodies so that through them our spirits can come a little closer to becoming perfect.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 146 of 2015

Today the Lord prompted my body at 4:00 am to wake up. I was about to drift back to sleep when my mom texted me. She needed me to watch my brother while she took my dad to the hospital. I would not have heard her text if I hadn't been awake. I am so grateful that the Lord woke me up so I could be there for my mom and dad.

God Loves You!

Today we commemerate a way that God's hand is present in all our lives everyday. Those who have helped to keep this nation free and that have sacrificed so much to protect us. The Lord gives these men and women wisdom and courage to do a job that no one should have to do. The Lord has blessed our lives with so many willing to give their own life to make ours better. In doing so they emulate our Savior, willing to lay down their lives for their friends. I am so grateful I live in this nation and I have the freedoms I do. God bless America and all who protect her!

God Loves You!

Today I was able to talk to a lot of good people. The Lord has blessed me with a good neighborhood and a good support system of friends. I am very grateful for the association I have with all of these good people and the joy they bring into my life. The Lord has opened up my heart and eyes to other people and their goodness. Because I enjoyed today and talking with everyone, that shows how far I have come and how far the Lord has stretched me. I am grateful for all the chances I have to grow.

God Loves You!

Today our family got an amazing deal on something our family needed. RJ was inspired to go and ask about it and got the best price because the man selling it was a friend. I am so grateful that RJ followed the prompting and we got something that we have needed for a while. I know the Lord loves me.

God Loves You!

Day 141 of 2015

Being a mom is hard. Sometimes you have to show restraint and not rush in and solve the problems of your kids. My oldest has had a problem with a bullies for most of her school career. Not the same one every year but she is small and shy so she is a prime target. Today she called to tell me she had another run in with one of the bullies. The Lord filled my mind with what to say and how to console her and help talk her through a solution. I am so grateful for the added inspiration and the love of my Father for me and my child. She returned home in better spirits. The bullies will never leave but I know that the Lord will strengthen her to be strong enough to handle them.

God Loves You!

Day 140 of 2015

Today I was able to attend a graduation for some special needs students (one of them being my sister). I am so impressed with the Spirit that is present with them. These are very special people and I love to be there and feel their love and excitement one for another. I know that they have angels near them and that they are so special to our Father. I am grateful for the opportunity and I am very blessed that I have two of these special spirits in my life daily. The Lord has blessed me in so many ways through them.

God Loves You!

Day 139 of 2015

Today I felt impressed to write a letter to someone. I don't know why exactly but I could feel the Lord putting the phrases in my head to use. It is comforting to me to know that I can have help no matter what I do, even writing a letter. The Lord truly is in the little things.

God Loves You!
