An inspiring true story of faith, hope, and God's love that explores the difficult questions we all ask ourselves regarding priesthood blessings.
As I held my infant son in my arms, I began to ponder some deep questions regarding Latter-day Saint priesthood blessings. If his life ever became threatened by illness or accident and I needed to administer a priesthood blessing, how could I possibly know what to say? How could I know whether my feelings were from inspiration or from my own desires? If my duty was to tune into the frequency of the "Still, Small Voice" prompting me, then how could I possibly tune out the fatherly instincts screaming inside my head? I also began to wonder about other blessings that were not meant for the healing of the sick and afflicted -- blessings of comfort and guidance. If I were facing a tough decision, what did it matter if I had someone give me a blessing? If my faith and obedience was the key to receiving God's blessings, wouldn't it be just as beneficial to only fast and pray?
In searching for answers to these (and other) questions, I spent a lot of time with my nose in the scriptures, listening to General Conference talks, reading blogs, and devouring good books. It seemed like the majority of what I read on the subject of priesthood blessings was dedicated to miracles -- the kind where people were able to "arise and walk" after being near death, etc. Many of them said something like, "The power of priesthood blessings is real. Let me tell you about a miracle I witnessed as a result of a priesthood blessing." I wholeheartedly believe in God showing his divine power by healing people in miraculous ways, but those stories are considered miraculous and special for a reason -- they're not how things typically go. It would be easy to have faith in priesthood blessings if everyone were healed instantly every time a blessing was pronounced, but faith is not always that easy.
Often times, and definitely so in my case, we learn best by experience. Answers to my questions did not become clear to me until I found myself in one of those dire and scary situations -- the kind that terrified me and tried my soul to the highest level. This book is a true story. It purposefully does not contain any "arise and walk" type of miracles, but as you follow the inspiring journey of how I found answers to my own questions, your faith and testimony surrounding priesthood blessings and God's love will grow.
