Spot on. I love our Apostles that suffer so much burden and, frankly, so much hate and belittlement from others. I am so grateful for them and their purity.

I testify He answers, and we can hear Him. God lives, Jesus is the Christ. He is our Savior.

And when the Lord does speak to us…to take it seriously.

I love this message. I feel like the fact that he continued to pray and read the scriptures- even after a disappointing experience of not receiving an answer when he was wanting- is so important. It takes faith to keep trying even when we don’t see results right away- but they WILL come!

God bless everybody Jesus Christ loves you

Everything happens in God’s perfect time and ways

Wonderful. This reminds me of a message Elder Oaks shared: "About 35 years ago, when I was president of Brigham Young University, we were making plans to persuade the president of the United States to speak at the university. We had particular times that would suit our convenience, and we had in mind some things we wanted him to say and do while he was there. But all of us were wise enough to know that we could not contact the highest authority in the United States and invite him to come to the BYU campus-even to speak to 26,000 people-and put conditions on his appearance. "We knew that in inviting the president, we had to say in effect, 'We will welcome you whenever you can come and for whatever time you choose to be here and for whatever you choose to say and do while you are here. We will accommodate our schedules and our arrangements entirely to your visit.' "Now, if that’s the way a community of 26,000 people must approach the highest authority of a nation, it should not be surprising that one person-however important-is in no position to put conditions upon or to impose personal timing upon a visit or communication from the Highest Authority in the universe."

I was just thanking our Heavenly Father about every thing that appears as a disappointment to me, this is because I know that they are actually blessings. I know He loves me and will not withhold any good thing from me...just as I was meditating I came upon this post. So timely. Thank you sir for affirming what I perceived in my spirit.

I love that he said he wondered what he'd done wrong, and then later we know he didn't do anything wrong, it just wasn't time for the answer yet. So often I ask questions and I'm waiting for the answer, or when I need help and it doesn't seem to be coming yet, it's hard not to feel "Did I not listen well enough? Did I get the answer and miss it?" and then later, I'll get the answer and realize, like Elder Christofferson did, that there wasn't anything wrong, it just wasn't time.

That's RIGHT ! We're on HIS schedule.. not our own. Many people FAIL to make that connection, and that's where the trouble begins....

Amen

Sometimes a message from the Heavenly Father will come through the words of a brother or sister an they will say something to you that will leave you awe and you will know your prayers are heard . But we have to be always open , willing an ready to hear him .

This video came exactly when I needed it. I am so grateful for inspired apostles of the Lord like you 🤍

There is a song, "Never give up, never give up, never stop praying. Might be delaying what God can do" And this is so true! A perfect example of effort to meet the Lord halfway. We have to do everything we can too 🙏

Totally Agree Bro Christofferson. Part of the journey of personal growth is to wait on the Lord, and let his spirit teach us in the meantime ♥️

Hear him is a gift

God Hear Me🙏🙏🙏🙏😊

Thank you Elder Christofferson!

Respected sir thank you very much 🙏🍃🍃 Wonderfull initiative

Thank you for sharing. It's all about God's timing. He knows what is best for us

Love this video

Praise the Lord for this. Our God is love. He operates in love.

I hear Him in the service of others, whether service is being done unto me, or I give it unto others, I am able to feel the Holy Ghost confirm to me the importance of service and love for one another as fellow human beings, as brothers and sisters within the Lord's Vineyard. #HearHim

This might sound silly but when he was speaking I was thinking of when you order something online. It doesn’t always come when you want it to. Many times our prayers are like that. We will ask for something and answers usually come later. Sometimes much later than we want them too!

You can hear him through your soul .If you only , just , listen to your heart ! You will feel it .And then you shall know the answer !! If you only " Listen" !!!!

I love this. I served in the New York Rochester Mission a couple years ago, and the Sacred Grove/ Smith Farm, Hill Cumorah, Grandin Building, and Whitmer Farm were on the mission. I would definitely feel the Spirit, but often found myself look for big answers there because Joseph did, but usually found that as I was acting in faith after the fact, bigger answers and feelings would come. This is very wise counsel from Elder Christofferson.

Praise the lord...

Thank you. Thank you. Sincerely, this means a great deal.

Thank you very much Elder Christofferson for your testimony. Our Heavenly Father does not impose anything on us, why should we? Thank you for being the Lord's special witness. God bless you. (watching from France).

I am so grateful.

Amen🙏

Beautiful 💛

Thank you for the wonderful message. Its always a reminder for me. ❤

❤️

I love this so much! Thank you for sharing, the Spirit testifies this is true❤️

Thank you.

Felt the spirit , thank you. -- I love the idea of saying I am always and open and wanting to hear Him!.

Pray from your heart, you will receive an answer. ALWAYS. KEEP SEEKING OUR TRUE GOD FROM YOUR HEART

Thanks for that. Its a great reminder to us that the Lord is in charge and not man. What is comforting is to hear an Apostle speak and share his experience. Thank you

Thanks, Elder Christofferson!

Hey Elder Christofferson. I haven't been to "the Sacred Grove", however I do plan to visit. I often pray and recite Psalms 106:1-5. I do receive the blessings of His answers in His wisdom and His love👻Sincerely🖖😇

Thanks, I loved that message! I Love the sacred Grove, I have been there before I was 5 years old, but I still look back and still remember! I also love reading my scriputes! #HearHim!

♥️♥️♥️

Beautifully put! I know what Elder Christofferson said is true!

i am still waiting. not to know about the church but about my involvement in the church. i have a great testimony to the holy spirit. its just sometimes? it takes time. i am still waiting.

Thank you! This sounds great!

When we have a conversation with a friend, we speak and then listen. When we speak to our Father in Heaven the same way, it is easier for us to hear Him.

This is a great lesson. Thank you Elder Christofferson. I've had my own experiences with the Lord's timing that has taught me to trust the Lord, and don't try to counsel the Lord when I pray. I know that may sound funny, counseling the Lord, but I know I'm not the only one. This talk is a reminder to me to trust the Lord and his timing.

Elder Christofferson’s delivery and humility here shines. There are LOTS of things I disagree with about the church and church culture especially, but I can’t fault sincerity and humility.

Thank you

I guess the HG knew it was right at that time for me because I had a similar experience at the Sacred Grove. I had prayed in my heart to receive something and the instant I entered I received it. Loud and clear. (Of course only in my head)

Always provide scripture to mark or highlight what you are encouraging to others. Thank you for your council.

Lovely. Thank you.

He hears and answer our prayers with great love ...

Thank you Elder Christofferson for your testimony! Indeed, when I am reading the scriptures quietly, and not in a hurry, I "hear" Him. The Lord truly hears and answers prayers in His time... I'm learning humility as I wait on the Lord 🙏❤️

AMEN

I am GRATEFUL FOR THE GOSPEL!.

I’m so glad they started the hear him campaign

He always ready for us

Great advice, Elder Christopherson. Thank you!

i saw you on jenoral confrens(idk how to spell)

When things are tough in life, especially when those hard things do not leave me, it’s honestly hard to still believe in the mighty, absolute being. Because nothing is there with me again and again, and over and over again…. Just wanted to share some honest feelings

I love this so much. I had a really similar experience visiting the Sacred Grove - I was a little disappointed not to have something more profound while there. I only had a thought that my duty was to be a strong link in the chain of priesthood blessings that resulted from Joseph's prayer. It's reassuring to hear I'm not the only one who has been personally a little let down (temporarily) as I wait for the Lord's timing in answering prayers. Beautiful message!

I wish these would be able to be read and not just watched. If you are in a public place and waiting for your car to be serviced, for example, as I was a this morning, I wanted to read this, but couldn't click on watch, as it might disturb other's concentration on what they were reading.

And that he manifesteth himself unto all those who believe in him, by the power of the Holy Ghost; yea, unto every nation, kindred, tongue, and people, working mighty miracles, signs, and wonders, among the children of men according to their faith.

Thank you! This was an answered prayer!

Thank you, I really needed to hear this.

Thanks Jesus

God bless you

🤘🥰🤘......❤❤❤

Dear sir I am plagued by living demons. Set out to hurt me . I’m suffering and need prayer. I’m being attacked by an invisible weapon I believe it to be an electromagnetic pulse. I also feel Im being recorded in my home daily. My son seems somewhat upset. Since he came home from the hospital.He has been annoyed by the pets a cat named Athena. She is pursuant mix. And our dog Artemis. She is a mix breed husky. He often refers to them as she this and she that. I need prayer for him as well. Please help. My whole life has been invaded and attacked by people I can’t prove are involved.

🙏

Живите пойте прославляйте спасибо.

Alma 7 is definitely the answer.

👍

"You can dictate to him." 😂I laugh because it's true, though sometimes we don't believe it that way...

:D

I find it interesting that he received a confirmation of truths in the Book of Mormon, but not of the restoration of the church (They're two different things - confirmation of one doesn't mean confirmation of the other!)

Just watched a documentary on how much the Jews suffered in Hungary. One woman said she witnessed 2 children fall off of a nazi ss vehicle...it stopped the nazi picked up each child with each arm and slammed them against the truck until they died. She said "that is when I stopped talking to God".

You already had a testimony of Joseph.

And now I have run out of time to have a baby.

Yeah maybe that's why it's hard to pray everyday. If you don't know when something's going to happen in response. And if it doesn't you wonder about praying that next day and the point of it. Not to say that that's a correct way of thinking, I know it's not. But I also know what's quite common. Humans aren't about correct ways of thinking, lol.

What did you do steal a candy bar when you were 5?

The church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints , is by your own agency to choose and by the fathers will are thy will be done to choice agency to be agents. Today is not over it ends the beginning again to rule the night ways we see the seasons as time folds and unfolds the sky between heaven and outer darkness. I can't wait to be in tomorrow already by now lagging the night away and seek the light to move together on. The night is young found to serving the same as , it is by the desires of the heart to be hearing the words to speak and the Quickening to come. The promise land , land of our inheritance be by the family to tree the Parable Zion a new Jerusalem with the old. To lay , still and be caught up in the scriptures we spirit to think the soul the body and mind is , to faith the work so its Pertain able to the calling to receive the line of authority by doing so. The , most , starts by the least , to meridian the move to be balanced fortified . If we seek , we hear to be by the drawing that comes to answer the question that is , a reflection to be now , as it goes to come now and again to putting off the natural man and over coming the world. Look around , the way to make it easy is by the work we seek. Be smart , the push to pull and separate the divide , comes by opposition to running water the way , east and west is to north and south. Continental Divide is mathematical measurement to subtotal the outcome by receiving the earnings that be , to poll the elevation so the north poll is by opposition to south , the drainage and divide the run off. My brain injury is by the play to practice the thinking I hear. Check mate , is without warning and check is to move the call to the opportunity im seeking the position to push and pull . The opposition is , by simple terms a mathematical strategy of two , to be One by black are white. Chess is a mathematical move to subject the total by every option to be by the one that comes into play again and out of view and back in again according to the mind that is to the call , that sees the view to play , as it be . Tic tak toe , is the same way , simplified to , picture the same as it be to stay all mate by time to rule the winner quicker than the other , cats game. To play the player and play the game by the advancement by what is not available and available to run the trail the board be so the , move to be , by the strength to rule the board by , the square that is to location the move to take are to sacrifice the board are the pieces. Both , have the move to be the one that aint and the one that is stays the lead to gain the favor of the other by loosing. The winner does not gain the favor it is took away , to rule the rest by check mate , it mates the rest useless . So in defending the time , you can put yourself in , the move to surrender the game by the opponents strength that lacks the time to defeat the clock. It's a shot clock that voids overtime by keeping track of , the game that becomes equal. Its not a tie , game its , a win for the losing side that is in favor of , the time it takes to proceed with the winner . Today is about the move to , be by the one that is in control by another testament of Jesus Christ. If we seek the time , That catches up the difference between going faster and making a better move , the mathematical moves from the divide to % of the people will fail to make the better move , and get beat by the time it takes to figure it out. The night sees fit , the faith it takes to hope and hope has more in common with all things that folds the faith to be . Soon , if we look , the roation can see , the move the night takes to square the day to come so it goes and comes the way we reflection the teaching to meridian the both so does the gospel it be by the move to see it by how we opportunity and blessings be to fold family together living forever coming home to a place we receive it and hooking up the Probationary time spent in , doing the work to be like Jesus. I'm glad we have Jesus is Christ the Eternal God. So the time , is by the desires of the heart found by eternity to come One day to the Manifestation that is crowned with Glory to the fathers will ,in being a family that share the tree of life and the forbidden fruit to come to opposition and learn what is taken and what it takes. Takes family what was took comes the Savior to return the Order and be saved to live again. By following the Prophet , to the gospel we grow to now the all we be in One acord we sing to fold the garden that springs the fruit we be and to the tree of life we seek by believing on Jesus Christ name live forever Amen.

So you're saying you don't talk to God face to face? Isn't that what was supposed to make you a prophet? Why has no "prophet" ever testified of speaking to God face to face since Joseph Smith?

Just image you treating your children like this! LOL our world would be way worse than the horrible place it is.

Sounds to me like someone already convinced seeking and finding conformation bias. It may teach you something as you put your own internal meaning on something that you might have experienced because you have been primed to look for it. The human brain does this all the time with more or less anything but if you are not already geared up to conclude that this was what you think it was, it will be put down to say the moment. This might be useful to you but cannot ever hope to convince anyone else. Muslims, other Christian denominations, Hindus and the list goes on an on all have these 'moments' when they knew their god, for them, was true. The common link is they were all primed and waiting for whatever they have been told about. Secular people can also experience this with music, art or just what ever they are into so it's not unique and certainly not special. I've no idea how this can be even concluded to be from a god.

I love hearing from our Church Leaders!!! Faith & gratitude are so amazing. The more you have, the more they expand. I didn't always have the kind of faith I needed but I learned that God does answer prayers, and very specifically at times. Once I realized He really DOES answer, my patience grew. So when answers don't come quickly, I know it's just not the right time for Him to answer.

Amen

Amen
