Testimonies of the Prophet in Africa
My Impressions and Testimony about the Prophet’s Visit to Africa
“God loves making the IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE.”
In the Church we sure do get more than we bargain for. (We heard Elder Jeffrey R. Holland tell us that.) I got way more this past conference with President Nelson. For a month my husband, Alex, and I had questions weighing that we had no answers to. We even asked our home teachers, but they too had no specific answers. You have no idea how I felt—and worse, when I saw Alex with tears in his eyes as well.
YES, big men cry too when they feel the Spirit. OUR QUESTIONS were answered.
The prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, spoke and told us that with God, nothing is impossible. He loves making the IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE. President Nelson went on to talk about the Jaredites and so did Elder Holland. And guess what, it was as if they both knew that every day for a month, Alex and I had been going on and on—questioning about the Jaredites and the brother of Jared.
Right there we knew that Heavenly Father hears and answers prayers. These powerful men of God answered our QUESTIONS.
Sister Holland, thank you for your wise words when you said, “Those who see angels do because they want to.” Thank you for blessing my life with a portion of your spirit and inspiration. Someday I’ll thank you all personally for strengthening our testimonies in such a miraculous way. We still are all smiles and await your next visit for more questions to be answered.
