MIRACLES

Sunday the Counselor in Westwood 1st Ward Bishopric started the Fast & Testimony Meeting with a neat thought and the theme which continued throughout the meeting. He bore testimony of "Miracles" and how we are blessed with so many miracles today. We have the miracle of revelation from a living prophet on the earth today and we also have personal revelation, for ourselves and for our family, as we go to our Heavenly Father in prayer and read the scriptures.

Then Sister Eyre spoke of the miracle of Family History and the New Family Search program referring to Malachi 4:6, Doctrine & Covenants 2 and 62. A sweet sister by the name of Ann Wallace who works in the temple much like Anna in Luke 2:37, bore testimony about the miracle of family and being sealed in the temple for eternity. Another spoke about the miracle of missionary work and how the gospel of Jesus Christ is being spread throughout the world...and it is our responsiblity to serve. Brother Howard Anderson spoke about the miracle of the Savior and are relationship with the Savior.

The thought came to my mind....yes we do have so many miracles...just walk outside and see the hand of the Lord everywhere. Whenever we get down or discouraged, maybe we should make a list of the miracles and blessings in our lives...that alone would cheer us up. I am so grateful for the scriptures which contain testimony of so many through word and example...and also grateful for those today who have affected and continue to affect my own life and testimony. HAVE A GLORIOUS DAY and LOOK for the Miracles All Around You.
