Miracles

I have experienced many beautiful experiences where I have seen God's tender mercies in my life.


I will divide my experiences in different categories:



Making the Impossible Possible


Mom brought me to America without my Dad's authorization because he wasn't very involved in my life or made the effort to assist. The lawyer at the airport  said: "In the name of God, I will let you go".



Tithing


A Hospital debt for Grandma went from $169,863 to 0.00 on April 24, 2009. I remember reading in the Book of Mormon a scripture that gave me hope.


Promissory notes at school so many.. When I reached a balance of 7k I needed a loan, and I remember being at church with the loan application and my purse felt pointing towards Sis. Ray. She had never been a cosigner and said she could not say no because of my righteousness.


The same lady gave Justin and I a belated wedding gift while we were at someone's wedding. We were so happy to receive $100 dollars.


One time I needed to pay school and Mom and I went to get the mail and there was a credit card that was sent to Mom without applying for $1500.


I recall last year going to the Philippines on a humanitarian trip and leaving Justin at home fixing our Deltona Home for sale. We did not have enough money, and had to very carefully plan how to cover 2 mortgages. One way to solve the problem was to have Justin try change our actual primary residence mortgage payment day to make it jive with pay day. This is something I had tried to do before with no luck. I remember fasting and hearing from Justin we got an offer for the house cash. Also, I remember he negotiated a closing date before the end of the month to prevent us from paying another mortgage. This was a miracle.. Guess what? The hand of The Lord did it again. We got an offer cash before the end of the month when we did not have enough money for rent plus a mortgage.
I decided to pay my tithing first, and the Lord blessed us.

My Grandma was able to have her arm return from zero function to normal function after 1 year of intensive physical therapy.

Five Lessons I learned from my Dog that Can Make any Family Happy

Lesson # 1 Lick your family to death! My nickname is Lickassaurus Rex. I love to show affection to my family. For humans this means kiss or hug or show affection in any way you want to the people you love.

Lesson # 2 Wag your tail when you see someone you love. I love to wag my tail when someone comes home. I get so excited and I want them to know how important they are to me that my tail goes wacko. For humans this means you get excited and welcome your family members with love at the door. You can have a friendly smile and open arms to show them how important they are to you.

Lesson # 3 It’s ok to tell your family you need your belly scratched! I love love love to get my belly scratched. I almost get paralyzed in a deep sleep if my Mom scratches my belly for a long time. It makes me feel loved. As soon as I see her seating down on the couch, I jump to get a belly scratch. I lay on my back and completely relax my legs and close my eyes. For humans this means you look for opportunities to get a hug or a kiss from Mom or Dad anytime you need some love. 

Lesson # 4 Play together to Be Happy! My favorite game is “Go to Mommy” I like when my family is seating down in the living room and I am next to my Dad and he throws me down and tells me to go to Mommy and then she tells me to go to Yaya and then she tells me to go to Sammy. I just run around and around from person to person. Also, my magic spin is in the top of the list. My dad grabs me and I lay on my back and he spins me as fast as he can… I just completely relax in perfect vertical position. For humans this means you play with each other and be happy. Good thing is that dogs don’t have to worry about electronics..

Lesson # 5 Follow the Rules to be safe. My Dad sets a strong rule that if I brake I get a big uff-cequence. I like to run away a play “You can’t catch me”, but I guess if I keep doing that, one day I can get hit by a car and not see my family anymore. For humans this means follow the rules to be safe. Children need rules to grow healthy and strong. Now my Dad opens the door and I just look at the outside and don’t move this makes me feel “I am a good dog” because I am obedient.
