I told Sheila about something that happened to me this morning and she said that that was what I needed to write about tonight.  I have spent all day thinking about it and even though I am sure that it did happen the way that I said that it did I was having difficulty believing that it did happen.  I need to set it up a bit.  Yesterday when I read my chapter morning and night I decided to repeat 1 Nephi 8 because of the scheduled Sunday School lesson for yesterday.  That is the chapter telling about the 'tree of life'.  I read it yesterday morning and again last night.  I also real it maybe a week ago, and each time I see that Lehi had this dream.  I tell myself that I don't have that happen to me.  I do feel like I have spiritual experiences, but everyone else's seems better then mine.

Anyway this morning when I first got up I heard what I thought was the pump making strange noises.  So I went outside to check and found that the water level was way down and it badly needed more water in the pond.  So, despite, snow and wind and cold I hooked up the hose and ran water until the level was safe.  When I said my morning prayer I asked that I be able to discern spiritual things as normally as I had discerned that mechanical need.  I continued my day but a short time after I got into the office a strange thing happened.  I had the church news from Saturday on my desk.  The back page was visible to me and I glanced and read the heading on a story and I saw "Seek...and ye shall find--Me".  That thought was an epiphany and seemed an important flash of a truth that hit me and seemed to fit in an important place in my heart.  I decided to read the article, but when I did the heading read 'Seek...and ye shall find'.   I know what I saw that first glance, and I know that it was meaningful to me.  And I still find it an important idea for me to continue pondering.  But I do not understand what happened.  I am still wondering about it.  But the idea still impacts me when I consider it.  What does it all mean?
