Peaceful Uprooting

I remember when our family was considering moving to Nevada. I prayed about it, a lot! I had prayed many times and felt the spirit, I had prayed for comfort and received it, but I had never really prayed for a specific answer. On my own, for the first time, I received an answer that our family should move, that there was much waiting for us in Nevada, much to learn and many blessing. I remember feeling such peace! Then I talked to mom and dad and they had decided not to move. As dad went to refuse the offer he had a "stupor of thought" and we moved (obviously). I think that the Lord gave me the answer because I needed it to be okay with the move. When people would ask if I was mad at my parents for moving me, I would say that I couldn't be, I knew that the Lord wanted us to go. We all know me to sometimes be a pill when I don't want to do something, but in this situation I didn't want to be because I knew that we were told to by the Lord. Also, because the Lord said go, I wanted to go! I was excited! After moving life wasn't easy, but whenever I was frustrated I knew that the Lord wanted us there and the Spirit continuously comforted me, that knowledge didn't take away the struggles, but it helped me through. I look at all the blessings and learning that came from moving, so many!
