Catching up with all the amazing blessings I have received

So today I realized all the things in my life that have gone completely perfectly over the last month. It's amazing really that all these miracles just seemed to fall in my lap. After reading the Book of Mormon many times I have learned that the people who get blessings often forget to thank their Heavenly Father for their blessings and fall into wickedness. I hope to learn from their mistakes and can always remember the source of my blessings.

Here are all the things that have happened so nicely. First I got accepted into the Advertising Program, my dream program and job. I then have been getting great grades on all my tests and classes for the last month. I also found a great place to live fall semester even though I procrastinated finding a place until late. I got the job that I have wanted for summer time and that was probably the greatest blessing. Because I got my job, that means that I will finally be able to afford a car and get around.

Today I wanted to really thank my Heavenly Father for all he has given me. I hadn't paid my tithing for the month and am still so surprised that all those financial and great blessings came in spite of the fact that I hadn't paid it yet. I am so incredibly grateful.

The craziest thing happened when I went to pay my tithing. I put my money in the envelope and was just thumbing through my wallet to see what else was in there. Randomly squished in the bottom was another bill of money. The rest of my money I had already budgeted out. I could have taken the money as a blessing. The more I thought about it, the more I realized how much I already had been blessed with. I slipped the money in with my tithing to go to the humanitarian fund. I hope I can give back as much as I have been given.
