SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES
This is the first song I remember learning in Primary.
My Heavenly Father Loves Me

Whenever I hear the song of a bird
Or look at the blue, blue sky.
Whenever I feel the rain on my face
Or the wind as it rushes by
Whenever I touch a velvet rose
Or walk by our lilac tree,
I’m glad that I live in this beautiful world
Heavenly Father created for me.

He gave me my eyes that I might see
The color of butterfly wings.
He gave me my ears that I might hear
The magical sound of things.
He gave me my life, my mind, my heart.
I thank him reverently, for all his creations
Of which I’m a part.
Yes, I know Heavenly Father loves me!


Prayer:

From a very young age I realized that prayer works. Playing at Randy Orr’s house, I noticed one of my shoes was missing. I knew I had left them both together, but one lonely shoe remained. I decided that one person knew how to find my shoe, Heavenly Father. After saying a simple prayer, it came to my mind to locate the family dog. He had taken the shoe and was gingerly chewing on it. I went home happy to tell my parents that Heavenly Father had answered my small insignificant prayer
