I've had such a nice Sunday today. Church was really nice. Our lesson in Young Women was given by one of our Mia Maid leaders (Mia Maids is the 14 & 15 year old girls' class) who talked about being dependable. She ended her lesson with an experience she had this week. While she was cleaning her house she somehow had lost the hose attachment to her vacuum that worked for stairs. She said she looked around and couldn't find it and kept having the thought "say a prayer". She mentioned that she kept pushing the thought back thinking it wasn't that big a deal and she'd find it eventually. Finally she had the thought "do you lack the faith to pray?" She decided to exercise her faith and pray to find her lost vacuum attachment. As soon as she finished her prayer she had the thought to look in a certain place and wouldn't you know, there it was. As she began to attach the nozzle to the hose she said a prayer of thanks that Heavenly Father would help her find something that seemed so insignificant in the world. It was a great lesson in dependability, especially that we can always depend on God to help us no matter how small our need.

I really believe that God answers our prayers, no matter how small. I'm grateful that I have learned this principle and seen it in action in my life.

What a great Sunday.
