Quick quote

I was going to put this as a comment on Mom's blog because of something she said yesterday, but then I thought it was so good that I should put it on my blog. So, here is an Elder Holland quote I heard today. (I am working on a mundane project at work, and so am listening to his talks while I work. I love July at the Church Office Building! It is great to have it a little slower). Anyway, here is the quote:

"I bless you that with His unfailing companionship you will find your way through your most difficult days and receive answers to your earnest prayers. I especially bless you if you are troubled about someone else—about your spouse, or your desire for a spouse, or your children, or your parents, or your friends. I bless you to know that God loves and honors the earnest pleadings you make and that He is pleased to rush to your aid, to assist in the problem at hand, and to heal not only your heart but the heart of those about whom you worry and for whom you pray and sometimes weep.

"I bless you to know that there are good days ahead, always, that the darkest clouds always part and the most fearful days always flee before the beneficent face of the Father, the redeeming grace of the Son, and the sweet influence of the Holy Ghost in our lives." (From "What Time is This, BYU Women's Conference, 2007)

Wow! That quote was absolutely perfect for what I am feeling about my children, all of them, not just the two I mentioned. It could have been a direct answer -- maybe it was! It gives me a great deal of hope.

Thanks Sweetie
