A little magic

"When is something good going to happen, huh? I just want a little magic."

There are times in our lives when we wish for a spark of something, just a little something to know that the big man upstairs is still thinking about us; to know that he hasn't forgotten about his promises.

But I think the magic happens more often in our lives than we realize. The hand of God can be seen every day in our lives if we will look for it.

Elder Henry B. Eyring recently spoke on experiences he had. He had a book and he would write down at least one experience where he saw the hand of God in his life that day. Elder Eyring mostly did it for his children. But I think for some of us who struggle through our everyday trials, it would be useful for us to start looking for the positives through the day. As we look for the hand of God in our lives, we will realize it far outweighs the struggles we have.

As we prepare for the desires of our hearts to be fulfilled, we will come to realize God is preparing us through small steps. Things so great don't come in a great bang, "but by small and simple things are great things brought to pass."

Good things happen all the time and the beauty of it, is that that is the magic.
