I Know Heavenly Father Loves Me.

Heavenly Father really does care for his children. There is proof all around of how much he wants us to be happy. There is so much to see, to hear, to touch, to experience. Look all around and it is plain to see that while the world has a lot to weigh us down. It has twice as much to offer.
just as the primary song says this is how I know that 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
Heav'nly Father created for me.
2. 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 rev'rently
For all his creations, of which I'm a part.

Yes, I know Heav'nly Father loves me.

I have thought recently of how much love Heavenly Father has for me personally. He has blessed me with a Wife who is a partner and confidant. She is there to be my rock and I hers. Together we have created a family that loves and wants to help and share in our success. We cheer with each success and are willing to be the comfort when failure occurs. Family is what it is all about. Nothing is better than spending quality time with family. Doing stuff together building relationships with each one another. Offering help when help is needed. Being a shelter when life's' storms has beaten down our spirits. One can always turn for home and look for a safe haven.
Sometimes it is necessary to take a break and recognize as President Eyring says the things that are around us. Be grateful for the things in our lives and look for the joy in everything around you. A positive attitude and a hopeful heart can and will change the world.
Heavenly father knows me. He listens to my prayers and he will listen to ours as well. When sought his help is evident he stands at the door ready but we must invite him in.
