SUNSHINE FOR THE SOUL - INSPIRATIONAL STORIES

2 ай бұрын

E.V. Spencer served 5 missions for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He acted as Captain for 3 companies of immigrants and guided them across the plains. He was part of the rescue effort for the Martin-Willie Handcart companies. He dreamed he could skip general conference in the old Adobe Tabernacle and avoid a mission call. He never felt capable of the callings he was given. The Lord guided and protected him as he travelled thousands of miles to England on his first mission. Avoiding murderous mobs and standing tall amidst overwhelming opposition he converted over one thousand souls to the gospel. He may have been grumpy at times or felt inadequate, but he answered the Lord's call and stepped up to every task before him. This inspirational account will help you know that Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer. God loves YOU.
These stories will Inspire You to seek the Lord in all thy doings ... "Look unto to me in every thought."
Great bedtime Stories... fall to sleep with Brother Merrill's soothing voice, while you feel the Lord's love for you.

I apologize to everyone for being such a klutz on everything digital. I somehow turned the comment abilities on my last 2 videos off. I finally figured out how to get them back on. Thanks for watching

Bro Merrill. I love every story you share. I especially love your testimony on this one and the others because I'm sure it is heard and lives inside of many listeners and will in good time cause them to follow your invitation to ask God those questions. I know my inactive daughter hears and takes internally your words. Thank you for what you're doing.

My aunt showed me your channel about a week ago. Im sad that ive already watched all your videos. I realized i ran out when i went to find the next one. Loved them that much. I appreciate that your humble and have no ego in your messages. I feel your spirit, and enjoy these stories. I had wondered if your native and if so what tribe do you come from? My ancestors are pioneers and my husband is a member if the church for 10 years now. There's so much family history and stories that we love. He loved the pancho villa story since his family comes from mexico. Ide love to hear you tell about meliton gonzalez trejo. ❤
