Yesterday our Bishop came to us just before Sacrament Meeting and asked us to give the talks. (This happens a lot, lol) He didn’t have a topic for us so during the passing of the sacrament I prayed for something that I could talk about that would help build the testimonies of the ward. When I got up to speak I still didn’t have a clue as to what I was going to say or what I was going to talk about. I simply greeted the ward and opened up my scriptures and it fell open to Joseph Smith History and the page which gives the testimony of the first vision. I instantly started talking about just how much our Heavenly Father loves us for him to call a prophet here on the earth. I gave a little bit of history of the circumstances of Joseph Smith at this time and just how much of a need there was for a restoration of the Truth. I felt as though throughout my entire talk I didn’t say a word. I was simply moving my mouth and someone else was putting the words in it. I shared with them the first vision and my testimony. As members of the church how often do we think about this miraculous event which is changing the World? How God and his son appeared to a young boy to restore all of the truths that we lost. I am so thankful for this act of love with God showed to us, because it blesses families!!!
