"For my soul delighteth in the song of the heart; yea,the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads."
This promise came to be today in my home. I was blessed this morning to lose the remote to the TV and so I decided to put on some music instead. Earlier this week I found this amazing website www.ldsaudio.com and had downloaded a bunch of my favorite songs so I decided to put the CD I made on and an amazing thing happened. The little boy I babysit suddenly stopped crying and I was able to put him to sleep and spend some quality time with Coytt. Coytt and I played with his favorite game this shape ball that he got for his birthday from my mom, we clapped and laughed together. Then we wrestled and played with each other. Although we were wrestling to songs like "I Heard Him Come", "Greater Than us All" and "His Hands" The spirit was so strong in our home. With such wonderful music in the background my thoughts were turned to the Savior and all that he has done, and is still doing for me. These songs are a righteous prayer unto him and by listening to them today I was blessed with a stronger testimony of our purpose on this earth and the Plan of Happiness that our Father in Heaven has blessed us with. The smile on my sons face and the sweet sound of his giggle is the greatest blessing I could ever ask for, and to know that someday Mark and I can go to the temple with our children and be sealed for all eternity and that our family is not just until death do us part is such a wonderful feeling. To have the knowledge that my Elder Brother Jesus Christ suffered so greatly and gave his life so that I might repent and become the person I am today with the testimony of his life, love and knowledge that he lives and loves me is such a humbling blessing in my life. The above scripture says the song of the righteous is a prayer and will be answered with a blessing on their heads and today I was greatly blessed by the song of the righteous with a stronger testimony of my Savior and with the happiness and joy my son brings into my life. And that is something to be greatful for.
