I must share this!! I am not usually surprised to see the Lords plan at work in many lives but today I had one of the most testimony boosters ever. I know that times have been tough lately and my little family is living that reality. I believe in the law of tithing and have followed that without any issue. After a difficult few days with personal issues, Paul and I received a truly remarkable gift. The relief society president stopped by to give me a small gift. She said “This is for your family. The ward wanted you to have these and wishes you a wonderful Christmas.” After her brief visit I went back inside and opened the small gift bag. What I found in there brought me to tears and I was shaking like a leaf. Inside the bag was a bunch of gift cards. We were blessed with $100 gas from Arco, $30 for Walmart, $75 for Target, and $100 for Winco foods. I immediately said a prayer of thanksgiving to my Heavenly Father. Even though times have been hard for us lately, we have always been blessed enough to get us through our trials. There are not enough words to express my gratitude and love I feel. It also amazes me how he really knows us all individually. The ward members that gave such a generous gift did not know what our situation is and the stress I’ve been under. What I feel is so much love. Yes I know Heavenly Father loves me.
