Good afternoon! At least from Bentonville Arkansas it's the afternoon! 1:58pm! I trust all is well with y'all. Hope you are safe and happy!
This week we met with Lisa, the Levins and Joel and Sabrina! It has been 3-4 weeks since we have meet with them all. Several of them got sick, others had new jobs they were starting etc. So it was just a miracle we finally got to see them all this week! They are all doing good and are still wanting to learn more and progress. So that is a huge blessing. Going that long without some spiritual experiences can be very hard.
I had a very special spiritual experience this week! We had a lesson with a lady who just wanted to argue. She just did. She said that "no man can see God and live." That statement is accurate. It does say that in the Bible. (Ex. 33:20) However I also knew people have seen God and lived. (Gen. 5:22,24, Gen 32: 30) So I was pondering on when Joseph Smith saw God the Father and Jesus Christ and lived (JSH 1: 16-20) as I was thus pondering I said a prayer asking God how it was possible for this to happen. The Spirit told me. So I asked where I could find an answer. The Spirit guided me to John 14: 21 which reads: "21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." What a miracle that was. God immediately answered my prayer. I invite each of you to pray this week! God will answer.
With Love, Elder Spencer
