I read in the friend today, and i have a story to tell you, it's called "Swimming Lessons"
Once there was a girl that was in 4th grade, she moved and she had to go to a different school. At the new school things were ok until one day the gym teacher told them that they would be taking swimming lessons. But the girl had already taken swimming lessons at her old school. So after class she told the teacher that she has taken swimming lessons at her old school. "Oh lucky you then" said the teacher. No, the girl thought. Not lucky me, more like unlucky me. Ever since she was a little girl she had hated swimming lessons. She was terrified of them. So now that she was to take swim lessons twice on one school year, it seemed like the worst thing in the entire world. The night before swim lessons her mom tucked her in, she sat on her bed and asked heavenly father to help her some how, because she really did not like swim lessons and she needed his help. The next day she was really nervous as they went to the pool and got ready for swim lessons. as she sat on the pool deck they began calling out names and put kids into groups depending on there swim level. As they called her name, she realized that she had been put into a group were the swim teacher who was in her ward. The lesson was finally over, she found out that she did not pass the level she had been in. But this did not matter because she knew that heavenly father had helped her be in the group with the lady in her ward in order to help her. She knew that having that swim teacher was no accident, heavenly father knew her struggles and cared about her.
