As I've been thinking in my mind about this worldwide LDS church initiative, I have just recently thought of an experience where I was able to help out someone who needed my prayers. For anyone that doesn't already know this about me, my family served in a YSA ward for a period of time and it was truly one of the most cherished experiences ever. One of my truest friends that I got the chance of being able to meet in our student ward went through an experience of which I will not go into any details about, but getting to pray for them during a time when they needed it warmed my heart. I just knew in my heart that my Savior, Jesus Christ was aware of what had been taking place and that this individual needed my help. I know without a shadow of a doubt, that through our heavenly father and his son Jesus Christ we will be able to make a difference in the lives of other people.
I don't know what my life would turn out to become if I didn't ever have the gospel. I love it so much and the peace it brings into my heart whenever I'm struggling with anything. I know it will make me feel happier inside to know that I can pray for others who may need it more than I do. While this was happening at the time, I knew in my heart that I would be able to lift someone up by just praying for them everyday and knowing that it would all be okay. I am grateful for the power of prayer and that regardless of whatever it is we are going through in life, if we just take the time to kneel down & talk with our heavenly father everything is gonna turn out alright. I know in my heart that if we can think of someone who may need our prayers at any time, to think of them and what the Savior would do to strengthen one of his own.
