So my time being sick has given me alot of time to reflect and realize all that I am grateful for, it has also allowed me to see the hand of God in my life, and to see how the lord takes care of people who put faith in him. Sunday I was not feeling great still. I made it thru three hours of church, and a little more. I came home and colapsed on my bed. starving, but with no strength to cook, all I wanted was some soup. I felt I should ask for a blessing, and while I was at it, I did something I usually don't do, and let someone know I needed help and some one to help with dinner. Two Melchezedick priesthood holders arrived and gave me a blessing, which was very personal and helpful and unique. and my roommate showed up with her fiancee who was one of the two blessing givers and made me soup. throughout this week I have had meals magically appear for me at work from various sources and I have been well taken care of. I am almost better now. but Still struggling finacially a bit. Sunday In an act of faith I paid my tything,and it was hard to do, but I knew if i did I would be taken care of. and for that I atribute to all these blessings.I've also had numerous voluntiers to let nick and I stay at their place in august while I work out my housing/ roommate issues. I will have multiple couches to sleep on, and possibly a bed, I feel well cared for and that all happend in the past week. the lord wasn't lying when he said in malachi 3 "" 10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts." True that folks. what it means to me right now is have faith, keep the commandments, trust God, pay an honnest tythe and "prove me here with" if the lord will not open the windows of heaven and send people to take care of you, and bring you food and help you find places to stay, and make sure you dont die from your illness. thats what i know to be true.
