Tender mercies!!

Today I have been feeling down.  I can't put my finger on it but I feel down about myself.  I won't share exactly why I feel this way, because there are several reasons.  I will share however, that I have to go back to work on Wednesday and I am anxious about it.  I haven't worked since December.  They said I had to come back full time or quit.  So I guess I am going back.  Also today it hit me I can't pick up the phone and call my mom to talk about things.  That was a sad realization for me.  I am still trying to get her house cleaned and fixed and ready to sell.  Things that aren't easy. 

Anyways, God is always there for you.  I received a phone call later in the day from a lady from my church inviting me to go to the temple with her tomorrow.  She is an older lady and I love her to pieces.  She has 9 grown children that are married with kids.  So I am always asking her for advice.  Unfortunately I can't go to the Temple with her because I get to go sit at my mom's house for 3 hours and wait for a Salvation Army truck to pick up all the junk that didn't sale.  But I just have to say her conversation lifted me up.  Out of the blue she told me that I am a good person and a good example.  She said many positive things about my family and my husband.  It was just what I needed to hear right then. Sometimes we need a little pick me up.  Thank you Heavenly Father for surrounding me with angels and giving me tender mercies when I need them!!!
