I was reading the past few days in the scriptures about charity and as I read stuff like "Charity envieth not.. seeketh not her own...rejoiceth not in iniquitey". I was filled with an overwhelming feeling of gratitude as events over the past couple of days came to my mind where my Annie had shown me that she not only possesses all of those qualities but also had demonstrated them in acts of charity towards me. I couldn't believe that I had ever done anything good enough to be able to have someone so amazing as Annie be my Wife, she does so much for me and I felt like all I was giving back in return was a selfish attitude. I immediately fell to my knees and prayed that I would somehow be able to ease any burden she had been feeling as a result of my selfishness. Well yesterday I had some time between classes and work and I had unfortunately already forgotten about my prayer but Heavenly Father didn't. We had a pretty sizable pile of dishes from the day before and Britni had also told me about how one of her chest of drawers was broken. So I did the dishes and fixed the drawer and had just enough time to make it to work. I really didn't think anything of it until I came home and my wife told me that she had had a pretty stressful day and was so worried about two things when she got home which was the dishes and the drawers and for her to have her come home and have them be taken care of was huge for her. That, to me, tells me that God answers prayers, I know that I was inspired to do that for her and that it was in answer to my desire to just show my Wife I love her. I really wasn't anything I did, it was just God wanting to show my wife that He loves her and I was able to be the one to do that as her husband.
