How I

[@snoopsm602]

I remember I used to be an atheist and I used to always make fun of Christians and now I’m glad I found god in my heart and i found peace in my life ❤️

[@rdancranston]

That is wonderful. So glad you feel peace especially in these trying times!

[@stardustgirl2904]

And God is happy to hear from his beloved child!🙏♥️

[@cynthiabower8558]

That is incredible! I'm so glad to know that you "heard Him" and responded. The world is a bit better for every person who finds the Savior, and finds peace. Thanks for your comment.

[@brittbritt6971]

Me too. Our Father is so good to us.

[@A.dtbFORTNITE]

Fear not for you did not commit those trespasses on your neighbor, for satan works through thee in many ways other than that. The important part is to be better and always ready scripture and the follow the beatitudes. Listen to Jesus’s words for they will deliver you from the depths.

[@todderz17]

I love how honest, sincere, and real this is. It has a great message that can inspire all to never loose track of the joy that the gospel brings!

[@NsTheName]

I don't know why, but that quote about how its easier to hear someone whispering when you're closer to them really touched me. Thank you so much for sharing, Elder Renlund!

[@lilgronk87henrie53]

Thank you! I needed to hear this

[@Sabo937]

Elder Dale G. Renlund is my favorite apostle although we shouldn't have one. Since he was a seventy, he always recalled this experience. Before as a newly returned from my mission, I did experience what he experience. I am grateful that he was too honest to share that message. It is a wake up call for us that no matter how hectic our schedule is, no matter what status in life we're in, we shouldn't let the adversary prevail in our life. My love from the Philippines ♥️💞

[@mikirussell7104]

I've had a struggle to get dressed in Sunday clothes, during this COVID thing, just to attend the Zoom meeting for Sacrament. But I have a strong testimony of the things that are right. Today, I wanted to stay in bed and read and not get up and get dressed for "church". But I made myself do "what is right." Get dressed, attend Sacrament meeting on Zoom. There was a talk during that meeting that really lifted my spirits and I am so glad, once again, that I listened to the spirit in me saying "get dressed for Sacrament Meeting." Later my husband can prepare the Sacrament and we can celebrate that.

[@MarleeCraig]

Thank you for sharing Bro Renlund. Yes, it takes effort in and amongst the busyness of life, and the fatigue of the mind and body to strive to have his spirit to be with us. I know Heavenly Father is touched when he sees his children pressing on despite the challenges. This is a beautiful reminder because this happens to all of us ❤️

[@ronaleeheywood9723]

Thanks, Elder Renlund, for being so open and honest and committed to follow Jesus Christ. I can tell how much you love Him.

[@joshengland9529]

Thank you Elder Renlund for being so real and sincere! Your experience and testimony touched me deeply.

[@dustygrant3043]

I'm so glad you made the right choice and 🙏 that day and heard and heeded the voice OF the Lord, Brother( in CHRIST)!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@edwardhegemann5951]

In D&C 84, the Lord teaches that the one distinguishing characteristic of the righteous is that they will listen to the voice of the Spirit. The wicked won’t. Thank you Elder Renlund for being so transparent in this video. Thank you for reminding us of the need to cultivate the spirit every day in our lives in order to hear the voice of the Lord. 47 And every one that hearkeneth to the voice of the Spirit cometh unto God, even the Father. 51 For whoso cometh not unto me is under the bondage of sin. 52 And whoso receiveth not my voice is not acquainted with my voice, and is not of me. 53 And by this you may know the righteous from the wicked. . .

[@hustonswanson4106]

But you must also remember to go back to the bible and test it! Remember the heart is deceptive, thats why we must always go back.

[@Jenni-xc6cg]

Elder Renlund is always such a tremendous example of faith and truth.

[@colinmcmullin1154]

Love hearing the apostles share about their everyday lives and challenges, and how simple decisions and commitments affected their future. Thank you!

[@DNAstern]

Hi @@MSBowen-pk6ww, many people are unaware that there are living apostles today, but we (as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) believe that Christ has re-founded HIs church after a falling away, based on a foundation of prophets and apostles just as he did at the time of His ministry. The apostles are Special Witnesses of the Savior. I would invite you to go to ChurchofJesusChrist.org and click on General Conference. Twice a year the apostles and other leaders of Christ's church speak to the world. As a Christian, I believe you will love hearing from these servents and witnesses of Jesus Christ.

[@StuartWhitakerTV]

It starts in the small things. A lack of the small things can lead to big holes in our testimony. And in the small things, we can have our testimony become big again.

[@michellemichelle9143]

It’s cool to see how God created a new heart in Elder Renlund and it made him even more moldable ❤️

[@MegWasHere2011]

Thank you Elder Renlund for sharing testimony

[@isaacblake5434]

I am so grateful for this authentic, inspiring account of sincere repentance

[@jamietrout2527]

I started the video with reading the text as you were speaking, then I laid my eyes on your eyes and the emotion in your eyes as you spoke warmed my heart and I could feel how real your testimony was. Thank you for sharing such an intimate moment that you had with the lord.

[@00Fisher00]

In a very practical sense it's clear that we do make incorrect choices at times, and the blessings of repentance are always available to us, but this is a great statement about how seemingly small choices are still important. I know that there have been many times in my own past when things could have gone much worse, and I'm grateful for all of the positive influences in my life that helped me.

[@ayishanazir4292]

Yes, we have to make good decisions😌 Thank you for this testimony🙏

[@katebarney1530]

I can attest to what Elder Renlund is saying here. As we make goals and stick to them, we can see miraculous changes in our lives.

[@BOOROK-vd8hl]

Thank you for shearing us & i am blessed after attending and reading for book of Mormon .it is light and clear to taking for understanding about the Jesus Christ savior .i have full testimony about Jesus and book of Mormon what thy did on my self . by this case simply i prepare my spiritual book .

[@Operamoms]

These private, personal choices to follow the spirit or the natural man are pivotal in our progress. I remember a time when I thought the gospel was very simple and I understood enough. My study slackened for years, and so did my testimony. What a wasted opportunity to learn. My pride stopped me from learning. Humility is a great teacher. Thank you for sharing Elder Renlund. I'm glad you had the humility to see and make changes.

[@rabbithole2015]

What if a person prays and follows the spirit and the answer is to leave the church to follow Jesus? That is what happened to me

[@WetzelPhoto]

I take my naps at church. The best of both worlds

[@connorc9826]

Man what a good example of how real life is

[@catherineiba1099]

A wonderful excerpt from Elder Renlund's talk. Thank you.

[@margaretparker2734]

Thank you Elder Renlund, i too have always loved going to church, and still do.

[@papavader4613]

Thank you for that testimony. I love the "like any whisper, the closer you are the easier it is to hear." You always say things that make me stop and reflect and say to myself, "Duh! That makes total sense! " Love you Elder Renlund!

[@ivahatch9819]

Thank you Renlund for being so honest❤

[@Thehappyme02]

Thank you for being so open and honest.

[@thompson_lds1]

Hey Elder Renlund. With the gift of discernment I know the differences between the whisperings in the library and the whisperings of the Spirit. There were a handful of Sunday's that I "skipped" Church and I did "feel" as though I didn't miss anything. However there were a handful of Sunday's when I missed my Ward's Sacrament Meeting and felt that I must attend Sacrament Meeting today somewhere👻Praying is a great blessing we have been given, and without the gift of Church to compliment that blessing we would be lost. Sincerely🖖😇

[@troyodell2011]

It is so easy to get caught up in anger with what we are seeing in the world today. Even if we are correct in our viewpoints if we let anger and animosity towards those on a different path who see things differently dominate our hearts and minds we lose. We lose compassion, we lose love, and ultimately lose the Spirit until we can humble ourselves and rid our hearts of those evils. One of the most amazing things Christ did on this earth was to have compassion and love for his enemies who were literally trying to destroy his life. And we have a tendency to let hatred and anger fester over trivial differences in the grand scheme of things.

[@kevinramos9587]

I have been passing through a similar experience in my life, and I felt so much encouragement knowing that an apostle of Lord was once making the same mistakes as I. And he is right, After just two short weeks of striving to do what right, I already have my "zeal " back!

[@talie6236]

That “ZEAL”. It reminds me of the saying, “you don’t know how good you have it until it’s gone.” I humbly admit that I know all too well of recognizing the loss of ZEAL in finding joy in doing the things I know that invite the Spirit of the Lord and that are pleasing to our Father in heaven. What a joy it is to have it back! Thank you for sharing your testimony Elder Renlund. 💗

[@cketchem]

Thank you Elder Renlund for your testimony! You made me realize that if are closer to one who speaks quietly, the more we can hear them . The further away we are, the less we will hear. And so it is with the Lord. Like you, I also have found that as I move closer to my Savior and try to become like Him, I can hear the still small voice of His Spirit. But when I get busy and distracted, I distance myself from Him...and can't hear the voice of the Spirit...because the distractions of the world drown out the still small voice. You are awesome!!

[@faultedjam]

This talk is fire for seminary students like Evelyn

[@Zikeal-d4l]

These times are hard, we can't even go to church anymore. I wish we all had it back so that we can find peace and love again 💖✌️

[@MrUsmc99]

But without the guilt of now missing church we can now all take our naps.

[@cynthiabower8558]

We are finally back in church in our stake, but peace is available in our lives everyday even if life has disappointments. I pray we can all seek that peace as Elder Renlund did, by repenting and making and keeping covenants. I pray you will feel peace and love soon and give it everywhere you go. You are a light more than you know.

[@cdubs2771]

@@cynthiabower8558 Where are you? Im in Wisconsin. Probably the worst affected state at the moment.😔

[@williamfindspeople4341]

Oh my goodness thank you for that testimony. I have been enticed across the thin line that divides heaven and hell. I am reading the Book of Mormon again, and getting more out of it than I ever have in 34 years of membership.

[@Emma-td8bb]

I am currently in my final years of university doing mechanical engineering so this really resonated with me. I am often so busy and stressed that it is difficult to remain focused on Heavenly Father. But I find as I make the effort to do what I can, I am always blessed and helped - much more than what I deserve!

[@churchofjesuschrist]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Emma!

[@kami123102]

I did not think to see this video, but I felt doing it, listening to it, it made me feel that leaders are children of God, who have gone through situations similar to ours, but have exercised faith to act and choose the path to discipleship. It gives me hope that I too can take those simple but sincere steps of faith to become more like the savior Jesus Christ

[@michelleburna2040]

Thanks you Elder Renlund, this is my favorite Hear Him, i needed to hear these.

[@kathystephensen3756]

I REALLY needed this message in this moment. I have repenting to do this morning of turmoil

[@KellyMillerldspoetry]

Thank you for reminding us of the power of prayer and God's Word has! What a much needed message! So many families are exhausted. I have been feeling like there's a never ending demand placed on me as a distance teacher. Parents and students are feeling it, too. Data, data, data! Meanwhile there's the ones who can't step up, catch up, or log in. I just love and help them all till there's nothing left. When you're in high demand The days start to blur Who, best, does understand? Pray and read His word!

[@cynthiabower8558]

Kelly, I pray that everyone experiencing exhaustion for so many reasons, will feel peace and find joy in beautiful moments and grow closer to the Lord in spite of adversity. Thanks for being out there sharing love.

Beautiful. I find those moments of decision often come so quietly, it’s easy to rationalize them away. But together, tiny moments form the mosaic of our lives, so yes, even little decisions of priorities and purposes matter significantly.

Great message! I love attending church, taking the sacrament, and sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ! I hear Him as I read the Book of Mormon and as I am still and ponder. I feel I gain more thoughts of inspiration as I get out of my comfort zone and share my talents and serve God's children.

[@vendingguy47]

Hearing how others Hear Him, helps me better understand how I Hear Him.

[@Joshuamonkey]

What a great example that not finding joy in something (taking a nap) can be a great blessing. What really matters is that we are on the right path since that's what leads us to true and lasting joy.
