On Thursday, 1/5/12, after I found out from the Spirit that the car accident was going to happen anyway. That I would have walked away unscathed like the others did if I had listened. I prayed, apologized, and asked for forgiveness.
I didn't feel peace about it though and that bothered me.
On Sunday, 1/8/12, I was prompted to share what happened in the fast and testimony meeting. I was unsure about it, but I did it anyway. I went to the Mukilteo ward - my home ward - and gave it there. After, I felt the pain I was in disappear and received a "good job" from the Spirit. After I sat down, I was prompted to share it with the singles ward as well. I didn't really want to. Admitting where you went wrong is hard enough doing in front of one group of 100+ people, let alone two. But I did it anyway. As I was giving the testimony in the singles ward, I looked around the room and noticed people looking at me strangely. It kind of put me off, but after I was done and sat back down, I felt the warmth of the Spirit reassuring what I had done was right. I no longer felt bad about what I had done. My getting up and sharing my experience and my mistake with the 2 groups of 100+ people, I could feel that He forgave me. It nice to feel that peace about the situation.
