Sunday Snippetts

Yay...........I have my hard drive back & ready to blog. Thanks to Scott for making some needed upgrades & adjustments.
Sunday's lesson was taught by Sis Ellen on 'Revelation & the Living Prophet'. To have received revelation one needs to to do their homework, as in scripture study & prayer, to name a couple of things
Sis Ellen relayed a story about a YM who wanted to serve in Japan as he spoke Japanese & was sent to Columbia. Of course he was really surprised but to his surprise while on his mission in Columbia was asked to teach 64 Japanese people who wanted to know about the gospel & baptised the 64 people also. This just proves that we really do have to trust in the Lord as he knows best!
Various examples were offered from sisters where revelation was received for that particular person. We must remember that sometimes revelation given to one person, is not neccessarily something that the next person may understand as it may pertain to the person whom it is given to. There are times when we may not understand things but we need to be in tune with the spirit & obey & follow the promptings. Heavenly Father wants to help us & we have to hear with our hearts not our heads. We are blessed to have not only the scriptures but our church magazines, like the Ensign, where we have words of the Lord for us, in our day, through our living prophets.
