words of comfort and inspiration...
Yes. It's been a long time. Yes. "So many" things have happened. No. I'm not going to talk about any of "those" things yet..............in the mean time I'm searching for all the comfort, peace, joy, hope, and encounters with the Spirit I can possibly find.............here are some words from yesterday............
"I am led to believe that our Heavenly Father loves us so much that the things that are important to us become important to Him, just because He loves us. How much more would He want to help us with the big things that we ask, which are right?
"...our loving Heavenly Father wants to bless you. But because He will not infringe upon our agency, we must ask for His help....Prayer is one of the most precious gifts of God to man.
"We must not only say our prayers; we must also live them. The Lord is much more pleased with the person who prays and then goes to work than with the person who only prays.
"It takes faith to remember that the Lord answers in His time and in His way so as to best bless us."
--Elder J. Devn Cornish
Ensign, Nov. 2011, pg. 101-103
"The object of prayer is not to change the will of God, but to secure for ourselves and for others blessings that God is already willing to grant, but that are made conditional on our asking for them."
--Bible Dictionary, "Prayer"
"To those within the sound of my voice who are struggling with challenges and difficulties large and small, prayer is the provider of spiritual strength; it is the passport to peace. Prayer is the means by which we approach our Father in Heaven, who loves us. Speak to Him in prayer and then listen for the answer. Miracles are wrought through prayer."
--Pres. Monson, Ensign, May 2009, pg.68.
