The Lord is on our side!
I am in Young Woman's in my ward and I absolutely love my Mia maids! They are like little sisters I've never had and are so fun and filled with the spirit! I often get them to come over during the week to just hang out and talk or go shopping or whatever.I went to temple square and decided to invite some of them. I am so glad we did! We had so much fun!Giggles, pressing buttons in the elevator at the Joseph Smith building, watching the Joseph smith movie, tears, good food, watching the live nativity, being freezing etc! It was so great to see how the spirit touched them during the movie. One thing I did notice though was that one of them didn't have a coat, she had a light sweatshirt zip up on. I asked her where her coat was. She told me she doesn't have one and can't afford one. So I immediately felt very strongly that I needed to do something to get her one.Thinking about the money situation and how Heavenly Father has blessed us with what we NEED the past 6 months I figured, well I'll find a coat for her that we can afford and that she can be warm in and He will bless us with the money we need for it. I took her shopping a few days later just to finish up some christmas shopping for my family. My friend Jolene needed to go to Walmart so we went along with her. We walked into the store and the first thing I see is a sign that says $7. Guess what was under the $7 sign? A bunch of way cute down coats! It was as if a beacon of light was shining over it. Even better she went up to them and said these are so cute! I said a prayer in my heart thanking Heavenly Father for this small blessing and making it possible to afford a coat for her. I told her to pick the one she likes the most and I'll get it for her. She was way excited and said thank you. She put it on the moment we stepped outside and said I'm not cold! This small experience has made my Christmas season! Just to see her beautiful smile and know that she can go outside and not freeze. Heavenly Father is here for us. He is watching and he knows when good is coming out of our choices, and he will help when it is needed we just need to have faith in Him that He WILL help us when we need it.
