Dear Loved Ones, This is a collection of events from our family history when we have recognized the Lord's hand. It has been a joyful experience to recount these precious moments of our lives. There are many ways to describe spiritual blessings. There are tender mercies of the Lord such as Heavenly Father giving me a grandson on my birthday, or being inspired to help a grieving mother. There are also times when we are guided or instructed when we feel the Lord's hand helping us do what we could not do alone. Some of these experiences are clearly miracles that could not be considered luck or coincidence. To me the label isn't significant. I know that the Lord loves us and wants to help every one of His children. The more we become aware of these small and great blessings that happen all the time, and the more gratitude we have when we feel those things, the happier we are, and the more blessings we recognize It is my deep desire that my loved ones will read these things with a prayer in their hearts that will increase their joy of gratitude for the Lord's hand in their own lives.
