I guess those words, on the Lord's errand exemplify the life of Thomas Monson. The other half of this is being sensitive to the spirit, and obedient to the spirit. President Monson talks of a time he didn't head the spirit, and then arrived too late. He made a commitment to always head the spirit after this, and as a result has had some marvelous experiences. Some of the stories told are astounding, and talk of the preparation of a prophet, but also after being called, of taking the mantle of the prophet. This movie is highly motivational, and very touching. I had tears in my eyes on several occasions.
Topics that interest me include, California Mormon history, Mormon Handcart history, WWII history, Civil War history

ReplyDeleteJon F Spencer I expect that it will come soon enough but I'm more than willing to wait a very long time if President Monson so desires and as the Lord permits.
