Heaven

About a year ago I started a experiment to see if a promise that was made in church was true. The speaker was a leader in church and he said Heavenly Father knows what and when we need things and its job to seek it. So that we are able to ask for the appropriate things that we need. Then he went on to tell about he decided to be put it to work he decided for 1 month when reading his scriptures he would just open them and read. Well I decided to put it to the test. I still read 15 minutes in the BOM every morning because I know the blessing of doing this is peace. Then the other 15 minutes for the last year I just let the scriptures fall where they like.

back to today:   John 14
So often I know up until now only thing I really knew about this chapter is that we have mansions in heaven. But this morning it recconfirm the fact that my Heavenly Father loves me. That he knows I am here and willing to learn of him. So I am going to share just a few of the things that touched my heart as I read:

1Let not your heart be atroubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
If my heart is troubled (hurting) then I need to focus more on God and his son.


4And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
This is where Jesus is talking to the apostles and telling them you know the way to heaven you need to do the things you have been taught!

And whatsoever ye shall aask in my bname, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
 14If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
 15¶If ye alove me, bkeep my ccommandments.
don't you  love the promise that if we ask in his name (Jesus Christ) that his father (God) will do for me. This is his commitment from the God if we keep his commandments and his promise is that he will answer our prayers.

Sometimes I think I know better for me than my Heavenly Father knows for me. I want my prayers answered the way I think they should be, and so often I need reminded that his way is always better.
