Fasting and Prayer Work‏

So a lot has happened this week but I don't really have all that much time left on the computer! But there are so many awesome things that happen every single week! So this week I really strengthened my testimony of fasting and prayer. It was about middle of the week and I just got super overwhelmed by a bunch of different things and didn't quite know what to do. It wasn't a super big deal or anything I was just frustrated a little bit. So I knelt down and prayed and asked God what I needed to do. The first thing that came to my mind was to fast. So the next day I fasted. and like all day the day just went by really awesome and the weekend turned out awesome and I just know that God cares about all of us. It doesn't really matter how big or small the problem is he is always there for us. 

Another talk that really stood out to me this last general conference was President Eyrings talk. He did an awesome job talking about fasting. This quote was super awesome and I loved it so much! "The brief time we fast every month and the small amount we offer for the poor may give us only a small part of the change in our natures to have no more desire to do evil. But there is a great promise, even aswe do all that we reasonably can to pray, to fast, and to donate for those in need:

“Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy rearward.

“Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am.”

HOW AWESOME IS THAT? I love it so much!

Have an Awesome week!
