I started feeling really sick.
It was a sudden feeling that wouldn't go away.
In the bathroom I went.
And on the floor I sat.
As I held my tummy and let the 'loo' be my friend,
I tried to figure out what I ate or what caused this.
All I knew was that I wanted it to go away.
But how?
It hit me.
Text Clint Pulver and ask him for a blessing.
Clint lives in my apartment complex and him and
I have gotten to be very good friends.
We have talks about our love lives,
Our families,
Our trials.
Our triumphs.
We listen to each other.
Earlier tonight was a venting session for us both.
I told him my confusions.
He told me his confusions.
I feel like we understand each other.
It's nice to have a guy friend who is going through
the same things that I am going through.
Anywho...I'm just rambling now.
I texted Clint asking if he was awake.
He texted back immediately and said yes.
I asked him and his roommate (another dear friend) Pat,
for a blessing.
Without any hesitation they came over.
Keep in mind....it's almost 1:00 in the AM.
Pat anointed and Clint gave the blessing.
Clint's blessing not only included blessing my body with health
and strength, but he blessed me to have peace.
With family.
With decisions I need to make.
With life.
It was amazing.
I was so grateful that I was able to open up to Clint
earlier tonight and express my concerns.
He sure listened.
His blessing was beautiful.
One of the most powerful blessings I have ever received.
Tears filled my eyes.
There was a reason I started feeling sick.
There was a reason Clint and Pat's name popped into my head.
There is a reason for everything.
The priesthood is real.
It's amazing.
It's powerful.
I have asked for more blessings this year than usual.
It's because I know they help.
Tonight was just an amazing experience.
It made me want to live my life righteously and be worthy
to receive such an amazing blessing as I did tonight.
"I never said it would be easy....I only said it would be worth it."
