<p>So today sacrament meeting was of course fast and testimony ...a young boy got up to bear his testimony...probably about seven or eight years old...he started out fine but ended up needing a little assistance. He beckoned to his mother who was sitting about ten or so rows back on the side. She literally jumped up and ran to him to help (he is adopted just as a side note which made it so cool to see how much she.loved and cared for him). She helped him finish up his testimony and then they went back to their seats.
I immediately thought of us in our personal moments when we are struggling. This little boy didnt hesitate to call for help from his parents. They immediately came to his aid on request. Certainly our Heavenly Father will also rush to our aid when we ask.
"Consider the lilies of the field...shall he not much more clothe you oh ye of little faith"..."if ye then, being evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him"..."ask and ye shall receive...knock and it shall be opened unto you"..."I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you."
I also thought it was interesting to think that our Father often allows us to be the one who runs to a person asking for help. Hopefully we are willing and prepared to do so when that time comes.
