Miracles!

I am grateful for miracles!

I'm am definitely witnessing miracles in my life.

When I was called as Relief Society President at the beginning of this semester, my bishop's wife told me that if I needed to, I could call down the powers of heaven.

I have thought a lot about this comment since then.

I think that my biggest challenge this semester has been time. Twenty-four hours in a day just hasn't been enough. It always seems that I have more to do than I can physically get done.

For example, Monday night, I wrote out my schedule for this week. Allow me to share it with you: (I know, my scheduling skills need work. Note how I don't have times listed... so it is more like a to do list in the order I want to get things done.)

Tuesday:
Wake Up.
D&C Homework
Get ready to go to class.
Go to Shakespeare class.
Convince Professor Fox to extend deadline for paper.

Notice how I didn't schedule myself to sleep for Wednesday night? Yeah. I was already planning an all-nighter.

BUT! That was before class on Tuesday. You see, I planned my schedule as if Professor Fox decided not to move the deadline.

But he did!!

Now I can sleep!

The truth is, I was really praying for help.
So, I see this as the Lord showing me that He's watching out for me.

Things like this happen all the time. Every week it seems like there is another impossible challenge to meet in getting everything done so that I can succeed.
And every week, something in my schedule changes to make things more possible for me.

Every week!
