Priesthood Blessings
I am officially a senior and will be graduating in April 2015 with my Bachelors Degree in Emergency Management with an emphasis in Administration. I started my senior year last week and Eric gave me my last back-to-school blessing this week. Growing up, I remember my dad giving us father's back-to-school blessings every year before we started a new year of school. We never missed a year of doing this. This is something that I love and want to make sure that we do with our children. Since I have been married, Eric has been giving me my back-to-school blessings and that has been just as great. I have been reflecting on how grateful I am for the priesthood in our home. I am so glad that I am married to a man that holds the priesthood and is worthy to use it. I am so grateful that whenever I am in need of comfort, am sick, or need help with anything, I am able to ask my husband for a blessing. After Eric gave me my back-to-school blessing, I felt so much comfort and know that I am going to be able to get through this last year of school.
I mentioned that Eric and I were helping the sister missionaries teach two 19 year old boy twins here. This has been a great experience for us. It has been so fun to watch them grow in the church. Today, the twins came up to Eric and asked him if he would BAPTIZE them on Saturday. Then they asked if I would say the prayer at their baptism. This brought so much joy to Eric and I. We are loving the missionary work that we are involved in. I can't help but smile when I think that my husband that holds the priesthood gets to baptize these twins into the church on Saturday. Eric and I are just thrilled for them. How thankful I am for the priesthood and that I have it in my home.
