All in Prophets and Apostles
As for me, I don’t have a water problem. (Yet. I do live in a desert!). But I have plenty of other problems, just like anyone else, and I will gladly take as much of my Heavenly Father’s advice as I can get. That’s why I love finding answers to my questions and guidance for my life in the words of ancient prophets found in the holy scriptures, and it’s also why I love hearing the voice of God through his prophet today.
As we study the scriptures we will find examples for how to live our lives.
A prophet is “One designated by God to be His spokesperson and to be a teacher, revelator and witness of gospel truths.”
He is known to have been compassionate, loving, genuine, and filled with the love of God. In that brief period of time, I certainly knew he cared about people-all people-the little ones, the older ones, the middle ones, everyone was deserving of his love. His love showed me who God is.
My soul craves the connection with divine that happens much easier and with more intensity and frequency when I carve out, when I CHOOSE solitude.
The Lord, in his infinite goodness, would never leave us alone on this earth to fend for ourselves. He knows we need instruction and direction. Throughout the ages He has placed prophets on the earth, to act as his mouthpieces – from Adam to Noah, Moses to Peter.
