I'm always saying things to myself like, "how come this always happens", "how come I never get a yes answer to prayers" or "Why does everything bad always happen at once!"
I've never been one to say specifically why me, and I've always been kind of offended at the statement, but what I'm starting to realize what I think is just as bad. Unlike the why me notion, I'm not comparing my trials to others trials. I know everyone has their problems, and I'll take my own, thank-you very much. But when I make general statements about my life like that, I'm ignoring the blessings I see every day. I never write down my blessings, so when trials come around, I'm stupid enough to honestly forget I've seen any blessings at all. But I have, and its extremely ungrateful of me. So I guess this is yet another testimony of writing down our blessings and spiritual experiences.
Today my prayer was answered with a yes. So there.
I had some receipts I had to find, and was getting quite frustrated about it. I prayed, and even though I didn't find them both, I found one and was given a solution to the lack of the other. Problem solved.
Also, I received some guidance about how to enrich my scripture study which I sorely needed. It was inspired and detailed and another answer to prayer, albeit along with some chastisement. I'm grateful for that too.
