HOW TO TEACH LIKE AN ANGEL

WHO WANTS TO KNOW HOW TO TEACH LIKE AN ANGEL? MIRACLES SURROUND US ON SO MANY CORNERS THAT SOMEDAYS YOU CAN HARDLY CATCH YOUR BREATH. ON OUR RETURN TRIP FROM SIERRA LEONE WE STEPPED ON THE PLANE TO THE VOICES OF ELDER/SISTER TERRY, AND AS WE LOOKED AROUND WE WERE SURROUNDED BY MISSIONARY BADGES. ALL 12 MISSIONARIES WERE COMING INTO LIBERIA AS THE FIRST SET SINCE THE OUTBREAK OF EBOLA. JUST DAYS BEFORE I HAD CHANGED OUR SEATS, AND NOW FOUND THAT WE WERE IN A NEST OF MISSIONARIES ON THIS HUGE AIRCRAFT. I WAS SO SURPRISED THAT I FELT ALL OF MY MOTHERHOOD SURFACE, AND WE SHARED AND SHARED. THEY ASKED ME ABOUT THE CHURCH AND MY CONVERSION, WHAT IT FELT LIKE COMING OUT OF THE WATERS OF BAPTISM AND IF I REMEMBERED THE MISSIONARIES THAT TAUGHT ME? THE HUNGER TO KNOW WHAT  A FEAST LAYED BEFORE ALL OF US. 

JUST THAT MORNING I HAD READ ABOUT THE ANGEL COMING TO NEPHI TO TEACH HIM THE THINGS THAT WERE GIVEN TO HIS FATHER LEHI ABOUT THE TRUTHS OF THE GOSPEL AND THE TREE OF LIFE. THE PATTERN EMERGED OF HOW THE ANGEL ASKED NEPHI TO LOOK, NEPHI LOOKED AND THEN BEHELD. I SHARED WITH THE MISSIONARIES ABOUT MY READING AND HOW THEY COULD TEACH LIKE AN ANGEL....WOW WENT MY HEART! 1 NEPHI 11-14 IS THE PATTERN AND FITS PERFECTLY WITH THE PAMPHLETS THAT THEY ARE GIVEN TO EACH OF THEM TO TEACH. ALL THE PICTURES IN THOSE MATERIALS GIVE INVESTIGATORS A PERFECT WAY TO LOOK AND DESCRIBE WHAT THEY SEE  IN A PICTURE, AND THEN THE MISSIONARIES CAN ADD WHAT IS MISSING. OUR SHORT FLIGHT OF A LITTLE OVER AN HOUR WAS OVER, AND AS THEY WALKED OFF THE PLANE I'M SURE THAT I SAW WINGS ON EACH ONE OF THEM. AS I WAS SITTING ON THE PLANE, ELDER HEZSELTINE TEXTED ME TO SAY THEY WERE OUTSIDE THE TERMINAL WAITING FOR THE MISSIONARIES THAT HAD JUST LEFT THE PLANE. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES TO HAVE TWO ENCOUNTERS WITH THE HEZSELTINE IN A LITTLE OVER A WEEK, AND BEING SURROUNDED WITH MISSIONARIES ALL IN THE SERVICE OF OUR GOD. I KNOW SIMPLY BY THE HEAVENS ABOVE WITHIN A MORNING WITH THE SCRIPTURES.

WHAT A HUG FROM HEAVEN!
