That’s, I think, the way the Spirit uniquely speaks to us. and sometimes they’re words of another person that motivate us, comfort us, provide us with peace or joy in the moment.
Sometimes I’ve heard Him through the voice of another,
and I can give you an example.
Several years back, I went to the temple on December 1.
It’s my father’s birthday, and he passed away in the year preceding.
And while I was there at the temple,
I had someone that was working there in the temple
come up to me and say something to me.
She made an observation and made a statement to me that sounded so very much like something my dad would say and that something only my dad would have said to me.
And I was there at the temple that day hoping for a confirmation that my dad was in here.
And on that day, I heard
the Spirit testify to me through the voice of a person that I didn’t know that my dad was aware of me,
that he was available to me,
and that he loved me. And the words that she spoke to me in the temple gave me that calm reassurance that
the plan of salvation was real.
I knew it, but I knew it more deeply, I knew it more profoundly, and that’s, I think, the way the Spirit uniquely speaks to us. And sometimes they’re words of another person that motivate us, comfort us, provide us with peace or joy in the moment.
