Today, one of my home teachers came to visit me. In my church, every household has two men assigned to help make sure that they are taken care of; basically, it's a built in friendship and support network. It's standard for home teachers to visit once a month, and for members to get help from their home teachers. For instance, when my car was in the shop, my home teachers helped me to get to places that I needed to be.
I didn't need a ride today, but I've been having a rough time, and my home teacher really helped. He said things that I needed to hear and offered understanding and friendship. It really brightened my day. So, to show gratitude for my Savior, I found a way to show gratitude for my home teacher.
Yes, I do find it ironic. I'm trying to serve the Savior by showing gratitude for someone that He sent to help me. But isn't that how life works in general? He constantly blesses us, and even when we try to do something for Him, He turns our efforts into a blessing on our own heads. I'm so grateful for Him.
