Time tempers all things....

So it's been a few crazy weeks. My apologies for not posting sooner. Sometimes so much happens at once, it gets difficult to mentally keep up with everything you learn and learning from.



Thankful:



-I'm thankful for my heart. It's senstive but it's also strong compassionate and tender and I'm gratful to God for blessing me with this heart.



-I'm grateful for support I feel from the Spirit and unseen hands everyday. It astounds and amazes me how manys things touch my life in so many different ways.



-i'm grateful for the sun. It reminds me of how beauty exists in all things and that it's not how something looks but how deeply it contributes and gives to you and supports you that truly makes something or someone beautiful. More than what you see but what is felt.



-I'm grateful for answers to prayers and revelation. I am so blessed to be guided everyday and receive constant communication from God to guide my life.





I am so grateful for so much, I'm starting to feel overwhelmed by it all. there is so much to be grateful for and yet the things that touch my heart and life the deepest are not things I can express with words or descriptions. It's in the quite tender moments either in contemplation or when I'm with someone I love and simply talking and the presence of God can be felt that moves my soul to pieces.





Here's where things get difficult: so much has happened to me in the last 2 weeks that to put it all down would take me all day and then some.



It's my prayer that I'll be guided to share things that need to be shared in a manner that only the Spirit can convey.



It's tough to share on my blog because I've made a committment to keep this blog completely annonymous and I have no desire to point out the stories of my life that would reveal personal or even sacred details concerning my or others lives.



I'm a pretty private person.



Still there are important things I want to share so here goes:



Recently I've been blessed to witness 3 individuals in my life who expressed and showed me such courage it has astounded me. Courage to trust God and listen. In that courage I've noticed that God's hand supporting them in growth and learning.







All things denote a God...even your life.



I had a revelation/dream a while back. In that dream I was looking up at the stary skies and suddenly struck with the deepest impression that the very hand that guides the stars to move them was also the hand that guides my life and how much more important I am then a star to God.



Since this time, I've been noticing more and more miracles show up in my life and even been blessed to have some come to pass in my own life. I have been witness to miracles I can't even share here and yet it astounds me how far removed I was from ever even noticing them at all in the past.



How can a fish notice the sea or a tree see the forest or a man and his purpose except through the eyes of someone who sees it all.



There is reason and purpose in all things. There's a reason I'm writing this in fact. It's no accident. I originally told myself I wouldn't share that dream about the stars and yet I feel compelled to. Why? I do not know but I trust and believe regardless of what I see to think or comprehend.



Recently a tragedy entered my life. Some of you may know it, some of you may not. Regardless I couldn't understand why until many reasons that came later. It saved a friends life, placed me in a position to be able to help 3 people going thorough tragedies similar to mine and also helping 2 other people bring about similar miracles into their life and this is not the end of it. I've been blessed to see the deeper and longer consequences of their lives and choices not only in the past but the road ahead.



What astounds me even more in particular was a revelation I received a while back that was like no other that had ever been revealed to me before and has tested and pushed the reaches of not only my powers and abilites to exercise faith but learn of it as well and puch me beyond what I ever thought I was capable of sustaining or learning before. I never would have received such a miraculous blessing and experience had I not been blessed with the trial I received. This impression changed not only my life and understanding of it but opened gateways to strength, understanding and develpoment that I previously had no access to or ability to attain.



It was this trial that exposed me to rely on faith in such a way as to invite something greater in my life and push and test myself in ways I cannot expound upon.



In so doing it prepared me to receive something I was not prepared for or expecting or even thought I was worthy of receiving let alone possbile.



It's one thing to repent. It's one thing to become a new man and have a true change of heart. And it's another thing to become someone who God sees fit to bless with things you never thought were possible. Not just repentance or a change of heart or power to transfix faith into greater things...and it's one this to be privileged to see what the one who created the trees can see, even a glimpse.



I will not go into greater depth.



This much I will testify:



Miracles of the past are the same today as they were then and literally.



If there are any part of the scriptures you read and say "Well that could never happen to me"....well why not?



The very power that moves the stars, influences and guides your life. Ponder that and pray about it and seek understanding about it more and how to apply this knowledge to your life.



I wish I could expound upon this more but I cannot. Learn about faith. What it is, how to apply it and what you can do to increase it's power in your life.



Here's a great question to ask "Why does faith exist?"



Faith serves a purpose you know. Everything serves a purpose. Everything...



Once you understand somethings purpose, you're nature and relationship to it changes forever.





Find the purpose in the things around you. and in yourself and in your life. They are often just sitting before you but we cannot see because we neither believed, exercised enough faith (more than belief) or have quite exercised faith long or hard enough...but all things can be revealed "to even the least Saint as fast as they are willing to bear it" (Joseph Smith Jr.) To bare it...Interesting word to use, no?



I hope my life continues to develop and the powers of faith I've been blessed with increase and the recent miracle I've been blessed to receive will fully come to fruition soon to so that it can bless the lives of others beyond my scope and understanding.
