Day 7 - Way 7

Today the miracle was simple. My brother Doug came home to say goodbye to my mom and dad.

They have been authorized to be home for the weekend and today was the last chance for Doug to see them before they leave early in the morning tomorrow. I know how much my mom is going to miss my brother and how much my brother is going to miss my mom, so it was so important that they say goodbye today. My mom normally doesn't cry but she did today.

I know that as my parents faithfully serve the Lord, he will bless them for their service. And if we, as their children are obedient and faithful to the commandments, the Lord will also bless us because we are willing to have our parents serve the people of Japan. I am grateful for this trial of my faith.
