Blessings of the Priesthood

"And now, I ask, what great blessings has he bestowed upon us? Can ye tell?"
Alma 26:2

Okay. First of all, for those of you who don't know and may be confused by the title of this post, I want to explain that the "priesthood" is the power and authority given to man by God to act in His name. MANY great, wonderful things come through the priesthood, most especially the ability to make sacred covenants, or promises, that allow us to return to God's presence again someday.
That being said, there are also many other ways God's children can be blessed through the priesthood. Today I had the opportunity to be a part of one way. Sometimes life can get challenging, discouraging, or just plain confusing. We try to do the best we can to follow what we know to be right or do our best to keep our head up and not let things get to us. We also, despite our best efforts, can't always do it alone. We need an outside source to give us the strength to carry on or a word of comfort to help us remember that we're on the right track. I needed that reminder--a reminder that I'm a precious daughter of my loving Heavenly Father.

"When additional counsel or comfort is needed, or during times of illness, the young man or woman may receive a priesthood blessing from a father, home teacher, bishop, or other priesthood holder. A ...blessing... contains words inspired by God to His sons and daughters, serving as a guide and comfort for a lifetime and even with eternal significance. Think of the wonder of it (Robert D. Hales, Blessings of the Priesthood, October 1995 General Conference)."

I still may not know everything, but I know that the power of the priesthood is real. I felt the power of it today as my Heavenly Father spoke to me in my personal needs through my mission president. I know that this same power was restored by the prophet Joseph Smith, and that we are still enjoying the blessings of that today. I would be lost without it.
What is one way you have received divine guidance in your life?
