The very first thing that comes into my mind here are my sweet little sunbeams. Anyone who knows me well, understands that I adore children. I connect with them right away and they make me happy inside. If you also know me, chances are that you know I struggle with making relationships with my own peers. I don't know what it is, but I can be judgmental, cold, and just don't let people into my heart very easily. Since I have been teaching my sunbeams I have been trying to make more of an effort to be warm and kind to my own peers. It hasn't' been easy, but I am trying. I am grateful for the example of my little sunbeams who always love me, are happy to see me, and love me unconditionally.
Another tender mercy is the blessing of tithing. There have been numerous times during the past 3 years that money has been short due to different circumstances. I have been faithful in paying my tithing each and every month and somehow things always work out. I'm always amazed at how at the end of each month during these hard times I'm putting money into my savings account. The Lord takes care of his faithful.
I know the Lord knew what he was doing when he placed my husband in my life. I have never met someone so loving, un-judgmental, and patient as him. 3 qualities that I really don't have. I am not an easy person to live with day in and day out with my personality and trials and he does amazingly well. The Lord knows us and who we need in our lives for which I am very grateful. None of us is immune from hardship, but we have people in our lives who can help make things better in the meantime.
