Listen to The Spirit! Then Act Immediately!

 This morning as I was reading scriptures a #LightTheWorld prompt showed up.  Today it was suggested that we share an inspirational story, presumably from our own lives. I spent some time thinking about what I had to offer and nothing popped into my mind first thing.  The day was busy so I put it out of my mind.

After a lot longer than I expected at the car service center and about half a dozen other errands,  I finally arrived home.  I was so tired I did not even make a late lunch.  I sat on the loveseat and reclined.  I thought that I had not seen Kate at The Last Homely House East of the Sea for the last week or two so I looked for her on YouTube.

There on her channel was a video from last year with her tutorial on making a no-sew Christmas star.  As I started watching it for a moment I stopped because it crossed my mind that I should see if I could get a second appointment at the temple tomorrow.  It is Dear One's day as assistant shift coordinator so we will be there until at least 1:00 PM.  I had already been able to schedule a 9:00 AM appointment several weeks ago and even though I have been checking back day by day there has never been an available spot.

Today, you guessed it, when I went to the temple appointment page, there was one spot available at 11:00 AM!!  Immediately I registered for it and now, tomorrow, I will be able to serve two sisters while Dear One serves in other ways. I am so happy.

So my inspirational personal story is to say that when we feel or hear the whisperings of the Spirit, and they usually are just the quietest of feelings or thoughts, it is good to act on them immediately.  That way Heavenly Father can bless us right away.  I am so grateful for this.



Both session tomorrow!  So happy!
