So, I was just thinking about this month’s visiting teaching message. As always there are multiple nuggets that can be found in the message, but there was one quote that hit me particularly hard, actually it was one sentence of a quote:
Wow. How powerful is that? This statement is so comforting. It tells me that no matter what is going on in my life, if I am living up to the covenants I have made, then I will be blessed in POWERFUL ways. And you know, when I think about it, I can pin-point specific times when I knew that there were people beyond the veil lifting me up and helping me out. This quote makes me feel so humbled and at the same time so important to my Heavenly Father. It’s a neat feeling and an awesome message. Happy Visiting teaching this month!

I’ve always loved this quote Amber. Particularly because I’ve had times in my life where it really helped me out.
When I was in the mission field I was learning how to ride a bike in my last area. It was really hard and I fell often. Now one of the times I fell I had been riding pretty hard and I head planted right in the space where my helmet didn’t cover my head. But as I got up, it wasn’t my head that hurt. Instead my arms and back hurt. And my head should have been all sorts of bloody. I believe that Angels caught me and kept my fall from being much worse than it was.
Just thought I’d share. Have a great day!… Oh I nominated you for a Kreativ Blogger Award. Just thought you would like to know. :D

Love the thought and explanation! Jayrod, I love your reply. I hope it helps Jeremy when in the mission field too. He hasn’t ridden a bike for years and very little as a kid. He will need angels if he goes to an area he has to ride a bike in! Thanks for the thoughts, both of you.
