Lucky Day

Hey yall

I am back in Provo! Aka the land of freezing cold ice freeze... It is so cold here

Well I had a crazy experience yesterday. Well first off, I have airplane anxiety. I mean it's not so bad that I cannot go on planes but it still gets in the way of things and rattles my nerves. Yesterday I got on the plane around 11am. The flight was pretty smooth, not a lot of turbulence. Around 2pm (Provo time) we descended down to the ground to land at the SLC airport. We were very close to the ground when all of a sudden the plane jerked up. My heart started to beat really fast. I had no idea what was going on. I looked outside of the window and saw that we were ascending again. A flight attendant's voice came on the intercom and said "Please remain seated." The plane circled around the mountains a few times. 30 minutes later we finally made our way back down to the ground and landed in safety.

Another voice came on over the intercom but this time is was the voice of the pilot. "Sorry about that sudden jerk folks. We were about to make a landing but then I saw that there was another plane that just landed on the runway so I had to move out of the way. Safety first." Had he not seen that plane on the runway at the last second we would have crash landed into another plane.

I can't believe that! And here's where is gets great. Apearantly my dad had a really bad feeling abou my flight last night and this morning. So the morning of my flight he got on his knees and said an extra prayer that I would be safe. THANK YOU DAD. His extra blessings saved me. I also felt impressed to say a quick prayer that the pilot would be guided by Heavenly Father. So there is a big YAY and THANK YOU for the power of prayer.

"Access to our Creator through our Savior is surely one of the great privileges and blessings of our lives. I have learned from countless personal experiences that great is the power of prayer. No earthly authority can separate us from direct access to our Creator. There can never be a mechanical or electronic failure when we pray. There is no limit on the number of times or how long we can pray each day. There is no quota of how many needs we wish to pray for in each prayer. We do not need to go through secretaries or make an appointment to reach the throne of grace. He is reachable at any time and any place." --James E. Faust.

Well today should be good. Lots of people are coming back today. My roomie Collette gets back at night, as does Alyssa! But Kiley should be home soon. I am probably going to hang out with her until they get back. I need to get groceries too. FUN FUN FUN. Till next time.

Love,
Kenna
