"As I was journeying to see a very near kindred, behold an angel of the Lord appeared unto me and said: Amulek, return to thine own house, for thou shalt feed a prophet of the Lord; yea, a holy man, who is a chosen man of God; for he has fasted many days because of the sins of this people, and he is an hungered, and thou shalt receive him into thy house and feed him, and he shall bless thee and thy house; and the blessing of the Lord shall rest upon thee and thy house."
Alma 10:7
What struck me about this verse today is the way that the Lord prepares the way before us. It isn't always this obvious and clear, but I think that the Lord intervenes in thousands of ways every day to help us all, as long as we are going in the right direction, towards God rather than away from him. I think this is part of the idea of all things working together for good to those that love God. All of creation is helping God's plan come to pass, and if we are working towards that as well, then everything, including angels, is going to be helping us get there.
Today, let's work on doing as the Lord asks and bringing more good into the world... and then watch, and see how God opens up a way for us all as we do more good.
