Last week in church, a thirteen-year-old boy gave a beautiful talk about the Holy Ghost. His humble testimony shone through with every word. Though he admitted to being a bit nervous, he spoke eloquently and with power about that personage of the Godhead whom we refer to as the Comforter.
Having no public speaking abilities myself, I was awed by this boy's ability to speak in front of a full congregation. Whatever portion of nerves that were his were vanquished in his willingness to do as he was asked.
So, for today, I am grateful for a boy's example of courage and faith..
And testimony. The whole family is a picture of the power of humility.
ReplyDeleteI am always blown away at the youth of today. We have some who have given talks in our ward that are so wise beyond their years. Boyd and I, when asked state: "We don't pray or speak in public...wish we could."
