I have been feeling a greater measure of peace in my life. I attribute that peace wholly to a kind, benevolent and wise Heavenly Father who sees beyond the maze of walls I face in mortality. On my part, I attribute it to more faithfully reading the scriptures (specifically the Book of Mormon) and praying that Heavenly Father would soften my heart toward my family. It's been a rough week, but, as my beautiful sister likes to sing, "I Can See Clearly Now the Rain is Gone".
Dad and I are getting along quite well. Sure, he repeats some of the same stories, but I do too, I'm sure. He likes to sing, and some of the songs he serenades me with, I haven't heard in decades. He's really worried about his finances and he's told me how much he appreciates that I've been buying the groceries, taking him to lunch, etc. That makes me feel good - that I've been in a position to help him financially rather than be a financial burden to him. The only problem with that is that the more I spend here, the less I can save for my own place, But, the Lord will provide. He always does.
Truly today I am feeling that my prayers for my soul to be comforted in Christ are being answered.
Brother H.
