Covid-19

I can't log into my other account and I'd like to write a bit so I thought I'd write on this blog!  We are in the midle of covid-19/.  There hadn't been any church for a month, no school, just hibernating at homr.  We are allowed to go out and get groceries but we are asked to staying 6' apart. 
We had a special fast this Easter week and prayed for help regarding the scientists to find a cure, comfort for those who are affected along with comfort for those who have lost someone, financial comfort for those who are struggling.y had to run him to
I fasted for those things and Ipray for those who are affected.  AS I prayed I also wanted to know that my Heavenly Fahter was aware of me and loved me.  I know He does, but I wanted/needed reassurance. It was a good day to fast, WE had the kitchen all cleaned and just to stay out of there was easy. I tried to keep a prayer in myheart but even though I felt good I had no powerful answer that Heavenly Father was aware of me.  Later that night I was looking at facebook and someone had tagged me in a post.  My friend Liaz Yound callng has her little boy and the stool table was knocked down and landed on his toe and tore it off.  They had to run him to Gunnison where they were told to go to Primary Children's hospital.  Their friend call and asked Lynn to go give the little boy a blessing.  My Friend Alisha Traina wrote this to Lynn and I
Oh my! I’m so sorry! Primary children’s and toddler medical issues certainly give me PTSD. However, you were in great hands in every way! Honestly there isn’t anyone that I know of (honestly) that is more Christlike than Lynn and

! I love them dearly! God bless you and little babe!

Alisha,

You are an answer to my prayers today. As I have fasted today I have prayed for the things we were asked to pray for and also others who are struggling. I just wanted to know that Heavenly Father was also aware of me. I know He is, but I just needed to feel His love for me. It’s been a good day, nothing spiritually outstanding till I read your text to Liz Young. I felt like my prayers were answered through you. Thanks for being there for me. I love you

Awe! you have truly been my truest and dearest friend! Friends like you don’t come along often! I’m so thankful for you! I love you too! (And Lynn!)

God answers out prayers but it is generally through someone else that they are answered.
I also found this earlier but I didn't realize it was an answer to my prayers for a while.

Laurie, from my family, will you please tell your kind husband “thank you?” What he (and you) have done for Liz and her family is truly above and beyond what any ward bishop would do. Liz always speaks so highly of “Bishop Bishop.” I know thank you really isn’t adequate to cover all that he has done, but just know we are so grateful for every gift of service he has given to help Liz and her family. He has been a true blessing in their lives. I, for one, am not surprised by the outpouring of service and kindness, I’ve known your family was special since day one teaching Tim. Your kids also exemplified the same Christlike attributes of you and your husband, and I was so lucky to get to teach at least four of them. Your family’s light shines so brightly. Thank you for sharing that light with Liz and her family when they’ve needed it most.

Stephanie,

You have touched my children’s lives in so many ways. As you taught them in school you taught them the gospel by your actions! You always loved them, like you do all the children you teach, regardless of any struggle they may have. I’m so thankful to of had you for their teacher. They always speak highly of you and what you have done for them.

We love Liz and her family. They are such a blessing to us and we’re thankful they are in our ward.

Thank you for your kind words. They have been an answer to my prayers!
