tender mercies
i meant to bear my testimony today. i have felt so close to the spirit for the past couple of days. on friday my nephew jordan was in a fatal car accident. he survived, but one of the girls in the car passed away and two others were critically injured. i have been so affected. as a mother: that is somebody's mady. as an aunt: a renewed tenderness toward my sweet nephew. as a human being: a refreshed sense of the fleeting moment this earth life is. as a wife: an appreciation for my husband, his faith and power in the priesthood. i bear my testimony of Jesus Christ. i testify that He Lives. i think one of His great gifts to us is Peace. i bear my testimony of the power of the priesthood. i know jordan was protected. i bear my testimony of the power of faith. i know the Book of Mormon is the word of God, meant to help and guide us. i know Heavenly Father lives and is ever with us. i know He loves me and wants me to be happy in the wild journey of life. i am so grateful for the gift of the spirit in my life. how i love my family. i am so happy i am sealed to my family forever. i know that families are eternal. i love the plan of salvation. i love the temple and the power of the covenants of the temple. i am ever thankful for my parents who chose to raise me in righteousness. i am overwhelmed with the blessings in my life. i am so happy, so peaceful, and so thankful. i feel blessed by all the tender mercies Heavenly Father has shown me. 
"I will show unto you that the tender mercies of the Lord are over all those whom he hath chosen, because of their faith, to make them mighty even unto the power of deliverance." 1 Nephi 1:20
