Tender Mercies

Wow. The Lord has blessed me so much this week! He really is mindful of us and cares about our strife no matter how small. I have tried to follow Elder Eyring and recognize the Lord's hand in my life each day and then record it some how. Well, this week I had two experiences that may seem trivial but they really caused me stress. One was I lost the mail key, for my work. This would mean I would have to pay alot of money to have the lock changed and the service charge and blah blah. So I was just really stressed out and didn't know what to do. So I kind of threw out a prayer knowing that it was in the Lord's hands and He can do anything but also thinking, I probably should not be bothering Him with this right now. Went home, felt better, the prayer brought me peace of mind. Went into the laundry room and had a feeling to look in the shorts I had worn last week. Lo and behold the keys were still in there! :) I was so relieved. Then today I got a call from my mom: Did you know you lost your phone? Me: Um, no. Mom: Well you did and this lady called me from it this morning saying she found it on the highway. Me: Where? Mom: By Walmart. Okay, that's the craziest thing because I wasn't even in that area yesterday. So this little saint of a lady somehow saw my phone as she's driving 40 mph down the road, pulled over, and rescued it! First of all, how did it not become totally smashed by oncoming traffic? Second of all, who would take the time to do something so wonderful? Third of all, phone how did you end up 15 miles from my house? Not coincidence, the Lord's hand in my life. I didn't even have to pray this time. He just knew that I struggle with keeping track of phones and how badly I didn't want to lose this one (it was a nice phone)- and He blessed me. No matter how undeserving you think are, or how trivial your trial my seem, the Lord knows about it, and He wants to help you.
