Today is Fast Sunday. Today is the day that I can get up and bear my testimony. Anyway our Bishop asked everyone to close their eyes and think of a time when prayer has helped us in our lives. I immediately was overwhelmed with all of the thoughts that came. I so wanted to get up and share, but my children were not allowing this at the times I could have gone up and every time I thought I could go, someone else got up. I was really taken aback by the true spirit of Christ that was present today. We have a bigger ward now and we have more children & babies that make noise, but that didn't deter the spirit.
So I just wanted to express my feelings that I was having & not able to say earlier today. Prayer has influenced my life greatly. I am married to a very wonderful Husband because of prayer, I have two fabulous kids because of much prayer. I believe in the Book of Mormon because of deep prayer. But none of this could come about with just prayer. I have had to put forth a lot of faith also. I am very blessed even with the trials that have been upon me lately. But because of my faith and prayers I have been able to over come them at this time. I'm not saying that everything is perfect. I still would love to have 1 more child, but that doesn't look real possible anymore and I am trying very hard to accept this! It's not easy, but it's OK. I do know that my Heavenly Father loves me and blesses me with wonderful friends! They truly support me in ways they don't even know. My trials are not much compared to others, but they are mine and they make me stronger. I am grateful that I have the true Gospel of Jesus Christ in my life!!
