day twenty-one

i'm thankful for...

the priesthood

and priesthood blessings

in my church

worthy men are able

to hold the priesthood

the bible dictionary defines it as

"mediator between His people and God"

priesthood holders use this power

to bless the lives of others

one of the ways they can

is by giving blessings of healing

it is a blessing with at least two

priesthood holders

and they ask God,

if it would be his will,

to heal the person they are blessing

i've been sick since about

the fifth of october

i've done multiple rounds of

antibiotics, stronger and stronger

each time

and for awhile, i feel better

and then i'm sick again

and worse this time

i finally realized

that i can't do this by myself

or with the help of my doctor alone

i needed my Heavenly Father's help

so with the help of my home teacher,

who is priesthood holder, 

generally not related to you

but also in your congregation,

to help look after your family,

my father gave a priesthood blessing of healing

i have faith
that this blessing will work
and i will get better
