A Recent Blessing

In the Book of Mormon, Amulek was directed by an angel to come to the aid of Alma. This is what he said about the blessing of Alma to his home- General Conference I believe brings forth the same depiction of such blessings to our homes:

10 And again, I know that the things whereof he hath testified are true; for behold I say unto you, that as the Lord liveth, even so has he sent his angel to make these things manifest unto me; and this he has done while this Alma hath dwelt at my house.
11 For behold, he hath blessed mine house, he hath blessed me, and my women, and my children, and my father and my kinsfolk; yea, even all my kindred hath he blessed, and the blessing of the Lord hath rested upon us according to the words which he spake.
(Book of Mormon, Alma, Alma 10)

Such a recent blessing was given as we viewed the Prophet in our home:

"As we leave this conference, I invoke the blessings of heaven upon each of you. May you who are away from your homes return to them safely and find all in order. May we all ponder the truths we have heard, and may they help us to become even more valiant disciples than we were when this conference began.

Until we meet again in six months’ time, I ask the Lord’s blessings to be upon you and, indeed, upon all of us, and I do so in His holy name—even Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior—Amen." Thomas S. Monson
