“Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him and make our abode with him.” — John 14:23

I love the promise in this scripture that if we love the Savior and try to keep His commandments, He and our Heavenly Father will “make our abode” with us. An abode is a home or a dwelling place. What a beautiful thought that Heaven desires to dwell with us and be part of our everyday lives.

Life can sometimes feel lonely and heavy. There are moments when we may wonder if anyone truly understands the burdens we carry or the quiet pain we feel inside. But this scripture reminds us that we are never abandoned. The Savior understands perfectly. Our Heavenly Father sees every struggle, every tear, every silent prayer.

What would change in our lives if we truly believed they were walking beside us every day? How would we face our trials differently if we remembered we are never alone?

Through thick and thin, we can trust Their presence, Their love, and Their constant companionship. Even in our hardest seasons, Heaven is nearer than we realize.

Heaven Feels Closer Than We Think

“For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.” — Psalm 91:11

There are days when life feels heavy, and the world can seem a little too quiet. But I find comfort in the thought that we are never truly alone—that God sends angels to walk with us, to steady us, and to remind us that we are known and deeply loved.

I’ve lost many loved ones throughout my life, and one who was especially dear to me was my maternal grandfather, Wallace Raymond Lee. From the time I was little, we shared a special connection. He truly was the best grandfather. He lived in a small town in southeast Colorado, and I was blessed to have him in my life for 20 years before he passed away in 2003.

I’ve often wished he could have seen more of my life—my marriage and the path that followed. But even still, there have been moments when I’ve felt him near me, especially in times when I felt alone. Those quiet, sacred feelings have brought me so much comfort.

It makes me wonder… how often are we being helped in ways we don’t even recognize? How many of those small moments of peace or strength are actually heaven reaching down to lift us?

Maybe angels don’t always come in ways we can see. Maybe sometimes, they come as a feeling—a memory, a warmth, a quiet reassurance that we are not forgotten.

Who has felt like an angel in your life, whether seen or unseen? And when have you felt gently carried through something you couldn’t face alone?
