Blessing

Yesterday, I just about had a mental breakdown.
 
I am not sure why I was having such a rough time, but I was not able to handle anything.
 
Just everything on top of each other was causing me to stress and dysfunctional.
 
During our lunch break, the only thing I could do was pray. I knelt and prayed for, I don't know how long.
 
I was praying and praying, but nothing was coming. I couldn't even get the words or my thoughts straight I was so flustered.
 
Then, the prompting came.
Ask for a Blessing.
 
A priesthood blessing is a special prayer and blessing through the authority and power from God. It can be given in a case, when somebody is in the need of extra spiritual strength, or in some cases physical healing.
 
 It was the exact power that Jesus Christ had when he established his church and blessed the people.
 
I called the other missionaries, and asked them for a blessing.
 
I mentioned nothing about my personal circumstances to them.
 But the blessing had the exact words I needed to hear.
I knew it was from my Heavenly Father.
 
He was talking to me.
He knew what I was going through.
I loved me.
And, everything would be okay.
 
I am so grateful for the Priesthood restored to the earth. I am grateful that there is a Heavenly Father that knows and loves me, personally.
