Answered Prayers

The following two quotes were answers to my prayers yesterday. I'm posting them mostly for my remembering purposes, but also thought some of you might enjoy reading them too. 

• When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives. Our love of the Lord will govern the claims for our affection, the demands on our time, the interests we pursue, and the order of our priorities. …  
• “May God bless us to put [him] first and, as a result, reap peace in this life and eternal life with a fulness of joy in the life to come."
  President Ezra Taft Benson
  
  
  Hymn #30 - Come, Come Ye Saints - This song was written by Tom's great, great, great, really great? grandfather and was just what I needed to hear yesterday. All is well, all is well.
  Listen here. 
  Come, come ye saints
  No toil nor labor fear
  But with joy, wend your way
  Though hard to you,
  This journey may appear,
  Grace shall be as your day,
  Tis better far for us to strive
  Our useless cares from us to drive
  Do this and joy, your hearts will swell
  All is well! All is well!
  
  Why should we mourn?
  Or think our lot is hard?
  Tis not so, all is bright
  Why we think to earn a great reward?
  If we now shun the fight
  Gird up your loins
  Fresh courage take
  Our god will never us forsake
  And soon we'll have this tale to tell
  All is well! All is well!
  
  We'll find the place
  Which God for us prepared
  Far away, in the West
  Where none shall come
  To hurt of make afraid
  There the saints, will be blessed
  We'll make the air, with music ring,
  Shout praises to, our god and king,
  Above the rest these words we'll tell
  All is well! All is well!
