Sunday Devotional III

Today in Young Woman's Sister Nixon brought up something that really made me think. 

Prayer is a blessing.

In all of my years I thought of prayer as a way to get blessings.  It was something I wasn't very good about doing consistently, and so I usually just felt guilty about it.

But the truth is... we're lucky we even have the option to try and communicate with our Heavenly Father.  Imagine what a lonely existence this would be if there was no way to talk to the one person who loves us the most--the one person who knows everything.  Imagine not being able to ask for things or say thank you or even just talk so that we didn't feel so alone in this Telestial world.

It gave me a bit of insight as to how atheists or people who don't yet know their religion must feel. 

I thank God I'm religious.
