God of Miracles

God is a God of Miracles

Timing is everything. I have learned that it is not just "Thy will be done, Lord" but it is, "Thy timing be done" as well. If you are striving to do His will, He will provide many blessings. God's plan for us is the plan of Happiness. His plan is much better than the ones we have for ourselves. Far greater than we can imagine. 
All we have to do is be willing to do what He asks of us.
Lately, I have had to make lots of decisions and they haven't been the easiest! I felt inside what I needed to do for awhile, but to take a leap of faith was scary for me. I had the opposite of faith. I had so much fear. I recently decided to do what is best for me personally and I have been immensely blessed. First and foremost, I have felt so much comfort. I haven't been nearly as heartbroken as I thought I would be. Though I still have pain it is much less than I expected. 
Second, I am finding so much joy in studying the gospel. I decided months ago that no matter what I would prepare for a mission. Preparing for a mission has shown me that when I am filling my life with good things, joy automatically follows. Peace and comfort can abide in my heart and that is all I wanted for months.
Lasting joy comes from doing the Will of the Lord.
Third, I have had many prayers answered in the way that I never expected! The Lord has shown me that he is aware of me. I feel like my life for the past month has been me taking the hand of the Lord and asking him to simply guide me through this journey. 
Fourth, I see the importance of the Holy Ghost in my life more than I ever have before. All the guidance I could ever want comes from the Spirit. I want to be so in-tune with the Spirit so I can know what the Lord wants me to DO in my life and where He wants me to be, and who He wants me to become. The greatest gift I have ever received is the gift of the Holy Ghost. 
I couldn't ask for anything more. 
I want to always be worthy to have the Spirit with me.
Specific miracles are meant for specific times. 
When they come it is perfect timing. God is perfect and knows exactly when we need particular things. I have seen when I have faith in the Lord's plan, will and timing, I feel at peace and know that all will go according to "plan". Though some things feel like they are never going change or get better, they will-
