While on our trip to San Diego we each received a blessing from my father. I was amazed how personal each blessing was, identifying what each person needed without my father really knowing that they needed that. It was a testament to me of the power of the priesthood.
These are a few of the things I remember:
Derek--He will always have a good job, he will continue to advance in his profession, he should follow my council, (no pressure :-) Will be given the words to say.
Lexia--I will no longer have to depression.
Elizabeth--If she reads the Book of Mormon she will come to know of its truth. She will be know how to take care of her body.
I don't remember the others. My mom recorded them and I hope she types them up because they were beautiful!!
We also had a devotional every day. At one point each of my children had to bare their testimonies. Here are some highlights:
Elizabeth--She really wanted a picture of an Elephant when we went to the zoo. Aunt Annelise had prayed for a good picture of a koala so she decided to pray for a good picture of an Elephant. Then the Elephant turned and she was able to get a good picture. She was also praying for a friend and got the warm feeling in her hear that all would be okay. This is just what I wanted to hear. I have been praying that she will have spiritual experiences this summer. How fun that it happened at the zoo.
Samantha--She talked about Hope Reins and how Heavenly Father lead Derek and I there and how it has been so good for her, that she really likes the horses and bonds well with them.
John Derek--He related the story about his friend who was killed when she ran into the road chasing a ball and was hit by a car. This experience really impacted him.
Sorry, I don't remember the rest.
