Today I spoke with my oldest son on the phone today. He has been in Kentucky working for the past 6 months. He has also been struggling spiritually. He has had a difficult time making it to church since he has been there because they work 6 days a week and Sunday is his only rest day.
He told me that he decided that this next Sunday he was going to church and was taking two of his friends with him who have not been to church for over 10 years. He told me that he was taking Saturday off to play and then use Sunday to go to church.
Tears once again came to my eyes, and my mind was immediately reminded of the temple visit. I was reminded again of the opportunity I had to put his name in the temple and how I have been praying for him over these past few weeks. I knew that once again my prayers were being answered and my son's heart was realizing what he needed to do in order to receive the blessings the Lord had intended for him.
I knew that I must love him unconditionally, not judge or tell him what he needs to do, but only support him and promise him the blessings that will come as he tries his best to do whats right.
What a blessing it is to know that the Lord is truly listening and answering my prayers in behalf of my son today!
