"And mine Angels round about you, to bear you up..."
This scripture(D&C 84: 88) has been in my heart the last hour. I had the day off from babysitting and had a TON of housework to do. Of course, being me, I didn't want to do the housework. However, when I woke up I decided that I had better start cleaning. 10am rolls around and I have barely made a dent in what I needed to do when the phone rang. It was Bonnie from the Salvation Army telling me that they needed help setting up the toy distribution center for the Angel Tree. Of course I jumped at the chance to ignore my messy house for the day and we hurried out the door. 3:30 rolls around and we are finally getting home after a fulfilling day of volunteering. I walk in the door and my house is just as messy as before, ACK! After putting Rora to sleep I rolled up my sleeves and started back in on the mess. The next time I looked around my house was clean. Even the dishes(the nasty ones that sat on the counter since Saturday...) rinsed off easily. It was only 4:45 and I was ready to start dinner. The only explanation that I can offer is that Angels truly were helping me clean my house. They prerinsed my dishes and made every mess clean up just a little bit faster. I know that what I did today isn't going to change lives, but the Lord saw that, he saw the stress I felt when I walked back in the door to my messy house and he "bore me up." Something so simple as cleaning my house and the Lord is there to help me. I am such a blessed Daughter of God! Thank you Lord!
