Quote - living what we pray for

 I knelt to pray when day was done, 

And prayed ,Oh Lord, bless everyone.

Lift from each saddened heart the pain

and let the sick be well again

And then I woke another day

And carelessly when on my way

The whole day long I did not try

To wipe a tear from any eye

I did not try to share the load

Of any brother on the road

I did not even go to see

The sick man just next-door to me

Yet once again when the day was done

I prayed oh Lord bless everyone

But as I prayed into my ear

There came a voice that whispered clear

Pause Now, my son, before you pray

Whom have you tried to bless today?

God’s sweetest blessings always go

By hands that serve him here below 

And then I hid my face and cried

Forgive me, God, I have not tried

Let me live another day

I will live the way i pray.

 This morning I woke up super early again And this time I just decided I’m gonna get up So I did, and I started my day  And then I started to ponder Why is my Heavenly Father waking me up this early? What is He trying to tell me? What do I need to do in the mornings that I have not been doing? It is in the mornings, when it is the most calm, the most peaceful That is the best time to talk to God No distractions from the world Everybody is asleep Your  home In the peaceful morning It’s just like being in the temple you can have ultimate peace In your home In the morning, right when you wake up In my opinion This is the best time to reach out to God To pray, and to talk to God however you do it  just keep doing it (( sometimes I wonder, am I saying these things for me or am I saying these things for other people that are reading my blog.. Because I just hit the microphone and I just start talking and then later on I go back and look at what I’ve said or wrote and I’m l...

David my Hero

 Today I am writing on my brother’s post, I am searching for some answers. David’s last post said he was out serving the homeless, he does that quite often. This time he said he was going to keep posting until he got home. He never made it home. I am searching for him. If you know of his whereabouts please be in contact with me. I would love help in searching for my loving brother David. Thanks for all your prayers. I love you David. Please reach out to us and let us know you are okay! You are greatly loved and missed by many! Please come home soon.  Love you!  Ginger 801-369-9089 7/19/24 Doctrine and covenants 101:16 Therefore, let your hearts be comforted concerning Zion; for all flesh is in mine hands; be still and know I am God.  8

 First, this is going to be an apology to anyone reading my blog and not seeing your scripture show up that I got from you earlier I just opened up my wallet and discovered a bunch of sticky notes that I haven’t used yet or written down yet because after I use them, I go and put them in a pile  in the same pile  so I can review them later unfortunately I don’t know when I got these ….on some of them,  but I have every color of sticky notepad in front of me So I feel bad for those that were waiting for their scripture on their day But maybe…maybe they will all go together and it will make sense in someway to me This one I got this morning Which is Saturday by the way Today when I am writing this So I guess this is Friday part two and Saturday  OK, my 1st scripture  Alma 17:13  Sister Ramage Gave me this morning ( Saturday) And then she wrote this at the bottom of her note The next scripture that I found in my wallet  going according to color I gues...
