blessings.

Psalms 121: 7-8

"The lord will keep you from harm-- he will watch over your life;

the lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore"

You can receive blessings in many ways:

• receiving a fathers, bishop or priesthood blessing
• serving others
• patriarchal blessing
• Choosing The Right
• and more..

Now don't get me wrong but i have not been very active these last couple years and i have recently started back up at going every sunday to church. But i have never felt so much comfort and joy in my life since i have been back. It is crazy how you can see your life change so much just by knowing that you are in the right place and being where you should be. I may not know much about the gospel, but one thing i do know is that i have been receiving so many blessings in my life just by the acts of kindness i have done, by returning back to church, by the choices i make and so on and so forth. 

I had the chance to receive a blessing from my bishop today as i am preparing to go in for a serious surgery and the comfort i felt as they had their hands laid upon my head and the words that the bishop had to say, i knew right there that those were direct words from our savior and that everything was going to be ok. This is just me wanting to share with you guys that i know that our lord and savior are here to helps us on this earth and to receive these blessings is what is going to get us back to thee to live with him once more! I have felt such comfort today that it has put the brightest smile up on my face and has made me feel of the gospel and has taught me. 

"not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them

is the true measure of how we give thanks."

I feel so blessed to be a member of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints and know that if i follow what the lord has in store for me i will receive many more blessings to come! I am so grateful for my family and my friends who have all helped to to get back onto the right path and to hold on firmly to the iron rod and to never let go so that i may get back to heavenly father, jesus christ, and my loved ones who have past on before me!!
