My Abundant Blessings from God
Posted: January 11th, 2008, 11:12 am
It is hard to know where to begin when you determine that you should share a great blessing with others that has happened to you.
One thing is clear, and that is that it needs to be shared, and I am thankful that you have taken the time to read it.
As many of you know, our family has been facing hardships for a long time. There has been much opposition, but I continued to press forward knowing that one day, the answers and the blessings would come.
A few weeks ago I sent a letter to President Hinckley about my life and the struggles that I am going through, and things that I witnessed while in Utah that greatly troubled me. I received a response, that warmed my soul. He lifted my spirits and helped me to turn once again to my Savior for hope during these trying times.
For over a year, I have been trying to humble myself, get closer to my Savior, and pray a prayer of faith that I would be free from the bondage of debt.
I have had a miracle occur. And that is what I am going to share with you.
About two weeks ago, I was praying and crying about our situation, and I opened the scriptures to these verses:
14 And it came to pass that when they had knelt upon the ground, Jesus groaned within himself, and said: Father, I am troubled</a> because of the wickedness of the people of the house of Israel.
15 And when he had said these words, he himself also knelt</a> upon the earth; and behold he prayed unto the Father, and the things which he prayed cannot be written, and the multitude did bear record who heard him.
17 And no tongue can speak, neither can there be written by any man, neither can the hearts of men conceive so great and marvelous things as we both saw and heard Jesus speak; and no one can conceive of the joy which filled our souls at the time we heard him pray for us unto the Father.
18 And it came to pass that when Jesus had made an end of praying unto the Father, he arose; but so great was the Joy of the multitude that they were overcome.
19 And it came to pass that Jesus spake unto them, and bade them arise
20 And they arose from the earth, and he said unto them: Blessed are ye because of your faith. And behold, my joy is full.
21 And when he had said these words, he wept, and the multitude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.
22 And when he had done this he wept again;
23 And he spake unto the multitude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones.
24 And as they looked to behold they cast their eyes towards heaven, and they saw the heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of heaven as it were in the midst of fire; and they came down and encircled those little ones about, and they were encircled about with fire; and the angels did minister unto them.
From these verses, I realized that Christ prays for me, he prays for you. What he did for those he loved, he also does for those of us he loves here, now and today.
This was POWERFUL for me. If Christ prays for me, then all things are truly possible, including being freed from the bondage of debt.
The thought also occured to me, that the prophet has prayed for all of us too. And my friends and fans have been praying for our family as well.
A few days later, I was again on my knees pleading for answers, because our time to find them is running out, and I opened to these verses:
16 But it must needs be done in mine own way and behold this is the way that I, the Lord, have decreed to provide for my saints, that the poor shall be exalted, in that the rich are made low.
17 For the earth is full, and there is enough and to spare; yea, I prepared all things, and have given unto the children of men to be agents unto themselves.
18 Therefore, if any man shall take of the abundance which I have made, and impart not his portion, according to the law of my gospel, unto the poor and the needy, he shall, with the wicked, lift up his eyes in hell, being in torment.
78 And again, verily I say unto you, concerning your debts—behold it is my will that you shall pay all your debts
79 And it is my will that you shall humble yourselves before me, and obtain this blessing by your diligence and humility and the prayer of faith.
80 And inasmuch as you are diligent and humble, and exercise the prayer of faith, behold, I will soften the hearts of those to whom you are in debt, until I shall send means unto you for your deliverance.
82 And inasmuch as ye are humble and faithful and call upon my name, behold, I will give you the victory.
83 I give unto you a promise, that you shall be delivered this once out of your bondage.
As I read these words that were given to others in times past, I knew that they applied to me today! If I did the things that the Lord required, He was bound by His word to deliver me too!
I continued to believe, continued to pray, and I knew that the answer was coming.
Last night it came.
I received a phone call last night from my mother asking me if my brother was in trouble, would I give everything I have to help him. I said yes, that I did not have much, but I would give all that I have to help him. She said ok, I will call you back and hung up.
Several minutes later, I got a call from my mom and she said that my brother needs all that I can give him within the next hour. To gather all that I can, and then to let her know what I was able to do.
I did it.
I got every penny I could find, and did all that I could so I could help my brother.
I called my mother and reported all that I had, which was $98.31 and over 50% of it was in coins. And then she asked me, is it all that you have? And I said, yes, that is all that I have. Then she said ok, good. Then she hung up.
She called back a few minutes later and asked me to check my email.
I did.
My brother had my mother fwd an email from him to me, and it stated that my willingness to give all that I had has brought me a blessing.
He said that because I was willing to give all that I had, that he will pay all of my debts!!
I cannot tell you what this means to us. I am sure that you have an idea. He will pay them all on February 14th. Which for me is the perfect day for Heavenly Father to have shown His ultimate love for us, and through my brother, free us from our bondage.
I will still have to some how hang on until then, but I believe we will manage it with the Lord.
My brother has only asked that I obtain two web domains in my name CharityAngel.com and CharityAngel.name and that I use them to record this blessing as well as all that I do from this point forward to glorify my Father in Heaven. That all that I give, create and do that is positive glorifies him, and that I should record it.
I do not have the hosting for these sites yet, but I already owned CharityAngel.com.
I got the other one last night.
I have very few words to describe how I feel now, or all that I plan to do with the gift I have been given. I am so grateful, and I know that I will always be grateful for this miracle in my life.
Thank you for all that you have done for us through your faith and prayers, and what you have done for others through your faith and prayers.
I have watched many miracles unfold through all of you, and I cherish my friendships with you.
I want you to know, that I know that God lives, He loves us, and wants to bless us. It is through blessing others that we glorify him, and I look forward to all that I will be able to do to help others now that I can focus on that rather then just surviving.

D&C 25: 12
12 For my soul delighteth in the song of the heart; yea, the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads.
