He is truly watching over me.

Today I had an experience that strengthened my testimony that Heavenly Father is truly watching over us at all times. He truly is aware of each and every child of his. No matter how many zillions of people are on this earth, He hears and knows each and everyone of us.

I've been having a looooooooong week and wasn't feeling good. I had an appointment at Jaime's future school for what I thought would be speech therapy. We are a one car family right now and I couldn't (well didn't want to bother anyone) find a ride. The buses over here don't work like the city ones so that wasn't an option, so in the end I decided I must walk there. It was quite a distance and the roads at a point weren't pedestrian friendly but of we went.

Well we got to the school alive and in one peace but I was super tired! The whole walk there I kept wishing someone I knew would drive by and pick us up.  I then get escorted to a room where I get the news that all I would be doing is signing a couple papers and I would be done! WHAT?! I tell the lady very nicely that I was told that this was an appointment for the actual therapy and that's the only reason I had ventured on this long walk. I can tell one of the ladies feels bad and tries asking the other two if there's any way it can be done today but no luck. At this moment I'm feeling my blood boiling inside but I keep my cool. I sign the papers and I start getting ready to leave. As I walk out the school and start to open the stroller I feel anger building up inside of me. I put Jaime in the stroller and start thinking about how much this sucks! Negative thoughts start filling my head. As I start to slowly walk, dreading the walk ahead of me, I start having even more angry thoughts. I was angry at the school, I was angry at my situation, I was angry I had to walk, I was angry I didn't have a car, I was just full of anger. Then right at the moment where I felt the most angry I heard a car horn. As I turned around I saw my sister in law's face. I can't explain in words what I felt, it was like at the exact moment I felt the most angry my Heavenly Father sent me an unexpected blessing. I felt so happy yet so ashamed. How could have I allowed myself to get so angry at my situation, I felt like I had been so ungrateful with my H.F. I was so relieved, I got into the car still not believing what was happening.

As we drove to my apartment I asked her where she was headed and she said she was going to Target. She said she had been planning to take a different route when she suddenly felt she should go this way instead. She said she didn't know why but she did. I felt something so strong in my heart. I know to many this just sounds like a coincidence or something that I'm making too much of. BUT I know it's not.

I got home and offered a prayer of gratitude. I was thankful that my sister in law was in tuned to the promptings of the holy ghost. I'm thankful she acted upon them. I'm grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who was watching over me even at this most insignificant moment. Even though I didn't think to ask him for comfort, even though I was filled with negative feelings he was there for me. Even though there's plenty of people with real problems, with bigger necessities than me at that moment, I was still important to him. I know he felt my anguish and knew how I felt that he had compassion for how I was feeling that he sent me comfort. I felt it in my heart. I felt his love for me. I received confirmation that he is always there, watching over us, hearing us, ready to bless us at our lowest points. He truly does walk with us.
