His Hand in All Things

Well what a day we had yesterday. Joey taught his first Gospel Doctrine lesson and did amazing. He was so relaxed and well prepared. He delivered his lesson with a calm confidence that I was envious of. Yesterday I was called to be the second counselor in the Relief Society. Talk about feeling unprepared for a calling. I will be serving with Janet Scott and the Bishop's wife Serene so I know that they will help me a ton. Then last night we got a call from the Bishop asking us to speak this coming Sunday. Are you kidding me Heavenly Father? was the first thought. I was already feeling tremendously overwhelmed and know we have to prepare talks. Although I feel like this is all too much I feel calm in knowing that I am not alone in any of this. I know that Heavenly Father and my Savior will be with me every step of the way. I was given a little reminder of this constant companionship this morning. I was cleaning up the kitchen and I realized that one of my invisalign trays was missing from the counter. Not the best place to put them but in the midst of yesterday's crazy morning I had set them there. I searched drawers and even the trash and could not find them. I prayed to Heavenly Father that I would be able to find them. I called Joey and asked him about it and he told me of three other trash bags they might be in. I searched through the bags and was able to find them. I knelt immediately in the laundry room and thanked my Heavenly Father for helping me. It made me realize once again that He will help me if I just ask. Whether it be for something as small as finding my braces or something as great as taking on a new calling. He is there for me and I could not feel more comforted or grateful.
