El mano de Dios

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
For your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you (3 Nephi 13:31-33).

There is nothing more important in this world than keeping the commandments of God and seeking after Eternal Life. "..for he that hath Eternal Life is rich." And what more could we want than to be bestowed the riches of a Heavenly King.

The Lord is ever manifest in our little family's life. A short while ago the Lord told me that if I wanted to better mine and my family's lives that I should forsake all unrighteousness and its associates and draw near unto Him. I quit my schooling and career path to do something more enriching and spiritual. Such a hard change can be a difficult occurance in any family. I started my mobile massage business, which has brought in some income but not much. The ultimate goal was to open a Spa. I told the Lord that in order to more fully serve him, and help "feed the hungry...and clothe the naked" that I desired to open a Spa business. Some opportunities presented themselves in which we could purchase an existing spa. After much mighty prayer the Lord told us that we would be blessed with the means to aqcuire a business, or to start one of our own. We started thinking of every means necessary to obtain funds for a down payment on the purchase of a business. We felt inspired that we should hold a yard sale and sale all of luxury/leisure items. Being fresh out of ideas on how to obtain money, and with savings funds running low to pay bills. The Lord blessed us again. We will be taking over a Hair Salon in Fresno, CA in 1-2 weeks. The required money down is the same amount that we made from our yard sale.

We know that the Lord is active in our lives, and are grateful that He is allowing us the opportunity to improve our financial situation, as well help some friends who we are going to involve in our business.

I can't help but to report on our families situation with including the reasons behind our actions and thoughts. For the Lord is the One who is in command of everything, and only to Him can we give thanks for our blessings. Life is great. Aubrilynn is crawling and getting into tons of trouble.
