Stories: The Mantle of a Mission President
Displaying 1 - 1 of 1 -- Add Story
| I had been serving for some time with a sickly companion struggling with grand mal epilepsy. His health made it difficult to work. As a district leader I did splits with other missionaries to pass off discussions and ppi's and work as my companion was home bound for a considerable time. To fill the time I did phone tracting, which is worse than tracting door to door. The rejection and difficulties drove me many times to my knees. How to lead when I couldn't get out enough. At one time I was in heavy dispair praying for strength. As I prayed I felt the spirit tell me my mission president was coming. I went to the door of the apartment and within a short time he and the assistants arrived. They had been at a conference nearby and the mission president felt inspired that he needed to come see us. He did and experienced my companion having seizures for the first time. Afterward he gave a blessing to my companion and to me. Not only does Heavenly Father answer prayers but he directs ministering angels(the president and assistants this time) to strengthen us. I will ever be grateful for his listening to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. |
