The Still Small voice

Ok so... just a quick story! 

So anyone who knows me, knows I am a concert JUNKIE! I love music and I love going to see concerts! They do 5 dollar concerts at pioneer park in SLC every Thursday and last week "Empire of the Sun" was playing. They are one of my new favorites so I was really excited. At the time, I wasn't able to find any of my friends who could go because it was such late notice. One of the girls and my work invited me to go with her and her friends. She... is basically the sweetest ever :) It was SO nice of her to invite me! :)

I was SOOO excited and was planning on going. Suddenly, the thought came into my head "You should go to institute." It was random and unexpected, not to mention very last minuet since institute started in 20 minuets, which is how long it takes me to get to school. But regardless, I checked and found one that sounded really interesting. I debated on what to do... but felt prompted to check out the class.

I went to Brother Bowcutts "teachings of Isaiah's" class and it was amazing!! I Am SO glad I went, it was exactly what I needed. Tonight I also found out that the concert was really good.... but apparently it wasn't as fun as it seemed.

Apparently, there was a lot of.... sketchy things going on there and there were so many people you felt like you were in a sardine can. That wouldn't have been enjoyable to me. At the time, I didn't realize the spirit was speaking to me, but I am glad I listened.

I don't think we realize just how often the spirit does speak to us. Many of the thoughts and ideas that are given to us do come from the spirit, we just don't recognize it. Revelation is hard to interpret sometimes. Ok... most of the time!! At least for me. But I know that the Lord was looking out for me and making sure I was happy, safe and doing what was right. That is why we have the spirit, to keep us safe and making good choices. We need to keep our ears and hearts more open so we are able to hear his voice of guidance. :)

I am thankful for the knowledge of this gospel and that I am able to partake of it's blessings daily. I dunno where I would be without it. :)
