Day 243 of 2016

Today I was able to go my first full day with no sweets. I am not totally taking them out of my diet but I am cutting back. This is a miracle since I have 3 of my favorite kinds of cookies in my house right now. I have been praying the Lord will help me and today I succeeded. Now on to tomorrow....

God Loves You!

Day 242 of 2016

Today was a very busy day but I am very grateful the Lord gave me the opportunity to help my dad. It added to my to-do list but it actually made my stress level go down because I knew my dad was being taken care of and not home alone. I am so grateful that I am home during the day and that I could take my kids over and still take care of my responsibilities and take care of him. Being a stay-at-home mom is such a huge blessing.

God Loves You!

Day 241 of 2016

Today my dad was able to come home from the hospital. This is a miracle. His stay was short for his surgery but we all wanted him home. He heals better at home. I am so grateful the Lord gave him the strength to be able to accomplish what the doctors felt he should before coming home. The Lord truly has blessed us immensely this past week.

God Loves You!

Day 240 of 2016

Today we were able to get a lot of things done on our to-do list. I am so grateful the Lord helped us get so much done today. He also has been with my dad today. It's been wonderful to know that my dad is healing. I know he is because the Lord has been with him along with some family members who are helping from the other side of the veil.

God Loves You!

Day 239 of 2016

Today I was able to go out on a date and take my mother to dinner. I had two of my best friends in the same place. I also was able to see my dad and he is still making improvements. I am so grateful for all the blessings the Lord gave me this day but seeing my parents and having a date with my husband are my favorites.

God Loves You!

Day 236 of 2016

I had a fun talk with some neighbors and it strengthened my testimony that the Lord put us in this neighborhood for a reason and that we were guided to our house. It is a great blessing to live here and to have this house.

Day 235 of 2016

Days 231, 232, 233, and 234 of 2016

Sorry, I went camping so you get four days in one post.

231- I remembered everything we needed for camping and got it packed. With my memory this was a miracle. I know the Lord was promoting me to know what to bring ahead of time so we could have a good trip.

232- My little girl almost fell into the fire when we were cooking marshmellows. I know the Lord protected her and helped her catch her balance so she didn't fall. This particular daughter has a habit of falling down. She hasn't perfected her balance yet. I am so grateful she did fall and the Lord was watching out for her.

233- Watching my children play and have fun in nature was beautiful. I sat and relaxed under a big tree and watched my family have a great time together surrounded by all the wonderful creations the Lord has given us. It was a peaceful moment and a wonderful memory.

234- I was touched by a wonderful blessing given to my brother. I could feel the Lord's spirit and power as I listened. I am grateful for priesthood power to bless and heal all members of the human race. The Lord loves everyone and is willing to bless them and help them. I am glad my brother asked for help and that the Lord was there to help him.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 230 of 2016

Today my brother came over and played with my kids. The Lord blessed me with an amazing brother. We were not the best of friends growing up, he had his friends and I had mine. Now that we have gotten older he has become a wonderful friend to me and my husband and an awesome uncle. The Lord really blessed me with a great family.

God Loves You!

Day 229 of 2016

Today I was able to finish a labor intensive project. I know the Lord helped me with it and gave me the strength in my muscles as it involved shoveling a lot of rock. I am pleased with the outcome. I know I couldn't have done it without the help of my Father. We make a good team.

God Loves You!

Day 228 of 2016

Today we got the bill for our roof and it was for less than we thought. They had to put more boards down than was in our contract but the crews gave a good word for us and we were not charged extra. This is a tender mercy. I am grateful for the Lord looking out for us and also for helping us to become the people that impressed the workers to the point that they did put in a good word for us. We have been blessed.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 227 of 2016

I was prompted to go and comfort someone who needed a little boost. I am grateful for the Spirit guiding me to go and to know what to say. I think it helped but it also made me feel better. I felt I was helping and doing what the Lord wanted me to.

God Loves You!

Day 226 of 2016

Today I was able to go to the Antiques Roadshow with my oldest and my grandmother. We had a blast. I am so grateful the Lord helped us get tickets to go. I haven't seen my grandma that happy in some time. It was really fun to be there with my oldest as well. The Lord blessed us with a wonderful time.

God Loves You!

Day 225 of 2016

Today we got a part replaced for our air conditioner that would have been very expensive but the store let us exchange it for a new one. I am so grateful for this as we are doing a lot of projects on our little budget right now. The Lord has been looking out for us.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 224 of 2016

Today we were blessed numerous times with things pertaining to our new roof. The crew was nice and polite, fast and skilled and it was done in perfect temperature. The house stayed cool even though they had to unhook the swamp cooler so we could install a new one. We have received many blessings and I know the Lord has been looking out for us.

God Loves You!

Day 223 of 2016

Day 222 of 2016

Today I watched some home videos of my children when they were younger. I am so grateful that the Lord gave me the means and the opportunity to get so many short videos of my children. I do not miss the stages they have passed but it warms my heart to look back on sweet memories.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 221 of 2016

Today I was able to recover something on the computer that I needed. The Spirit prompted me to search online for the solution. I found it and was able to retrieve the video I had lost. I am so grateful for promptings and for the technology we have. The Lord inspired great men and women to give us so much in way of technological advancements. I sometimes want to pull my hair out with technology but it really is quite awesome what the Lord has given us.

God Loves You!

Day 220 of 2016

Today I got up and wasn't going to go to church. I was in pain and not feeling well. I decided that I needed to go. I knew that it would do me good. I got to church and my pains went away and I was able to enjoy all 3 hours. I am so grateful the Lord took my pain away so I could enjoy my Sunday. It was wonderful.

God Loves You!

Day 219 of 2016

Today I was able to get a lot done. I had the energy I needed and accomplished many tasks. I know the Lord was helping me and giving me energy beyond what my body had. I am very grateful for the motivation I had and all the help I was given.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 218 of 2016

Today I was able to fix something on our old suburban which has been bothering me but I could never think of a way to fix. I am getting it ready to sell and was cleaning it when the solution just popped into my head. I know it was inspiration and I am so grateful that the Lord makes me smarter than I am. Without the Spirit to prompt me I would be only a third or half as smart. What a great partnership!

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 217 of 2016

I went to the eye doctor today with one of my girls. She failed her school eye test so I made an appointment. Our doctor was wonderful with her and she does not need glasses and my prescription hasn't changed either. I was so grateful for that and see it as a tender mercy since we have a lot of money going out right now and buying two pairs of glasses would not have been cheap.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 216 of 2016

Today we found a car for a good deal. We have been looking for one and we found one.

God Loves You!

Heather

Day 2015 of 2016

Today I was inspired in a way to help my husband and brother with a project they are doing. I know it will help. The Lord is concerned with His children even when it has nothing to do with religious stuff. He wants His children to succeed.

God Loves You!

Day 214 of 2016

I hate being sick, especially for long periods. The Lord has helped me to still be able to accomplish what I needed to and to fulfill my responsibilities. I have also been blessed with family who take good care of me. Even being sick I know how blessed I am.

God Loves You!
