I said that Elder McDay and I knocked on doors most of the time. Missionaries lovingly referred to Newfoundland as the Rock or the Isle of Patmos. However we were blessed to perform the first baptisms ever done in central Newfoundland. The Hearns were a family of 8 in Gander that we brought into the church. Our mission president was so excited when he heard the news that he got in his car a drove around Dartmouth NS looking for missionaries on the streets. When he saw missionaries he would stop roll down his window and yell: " They are baptizing in Gander." Elder McDay has become a lifelong friend.
I want you to know this is my first video I've ever seen from you or your channel. I was going to scroll by. I've been hit with just some vile videos of anti-mo's that are wolves in sheep's clothing , and I'm tired of it. I saw yours and wasn't sure. I saw the Christ's. I saw your library with multiple copies of the best books in the upper right. The spirit said, watch this video.
So I did. When I listened to your lawyer friend I knew he was going to get that job. It made me reflect on my own inspiration.
My patriarchal blessing says that I would have a loving wife and my children would look to me. I don't know who those people are, but I'm not sure if I have met them yet. My first wife was horrible and pushing me to consider suicide let me know that a marriage requires effort from both parties. The thought of taking my own life was a wake up call because divorce was not in my vocabulary. I was raised in a loving family and she had challenges growing up that she brought in. She did not have a good example of what a loving family looked like. My children have been alienated from me and I'm about to lose my son
When I got back from my mission there were two women that interested me. I prayed about it and the answer was very clear. Either one would be fine, pick one. So I did. After my divorce, due to modern technology I looked up the other one. Listening to her was like listening to my ex. It was then that I realized that either one was fine because I was going to end up divorced either way. The shame left me and helped me know I was still on God's path.
I know what God's voice sounds like. He holds my hand often. At general conference I was catching up with general conference and watching just the apostles and skipping the rest. There was a 70 that I was about to skip when I got that same distinct impression to watch his. It wasn't until the end that he said something that I know was meant for me.
The message from you is it will come in his own time. I really want to serve a mission again. That was the best time in my life. But I'm single. I am talking to a nice catholic lady I've known for nearly 30 years. She is authentic and kind and tender and catholic. I don't know what the lord has in store for me, I just love being able to call on him and see his holy arm made bare. I trust him.
Thank you for your video. This message could have come any number of ways. But he chose you. Subscribed.
@@CrackedCandy Thank you. Divorce can make you feel broken. The Lord loves you. At times waiting on the Lord is what is required to pass our test. Don't listen to satan. The Lord goes before our face , He is on our right hand and our left. He has our back. He will be with you. Thanks again
@@GodLovesYouAskHimthanks for the kind words brother Merrill

Thank you Brother Merrill, I wasn't active in the Church until I was about 21 years old and married. Later in my life I served several 2yr stake missions, as well as ward mission leader, and had the privilege blessing of seeing some great miracles in the conversion of God's children to the Church of Jesus Christ, and these were some of the greatest moments of my life. Thank you again for the work you are doing, I know that these accounts are of the lord, as the Holy Ghost has touched me many times and helped me move forward.
Thank you brother, I appreciate you watching
I have now listened to this video twice. It was just as great the second time.

Thank you again, Brother Merrill!!!!! Loved your stories today about your missionary companion and friend, Dano & his wife, etc.!!!! Loved the story about the young man from Scipio and climbing the mountain! Talking about Abraham from the scriptures, and him, not having a child/Isaac, until he was 100 years old!!! And tieing it all in with your with your friend, Dano’s experience with being an environmental lawyer, etc.!!!!

Thank you for the inspirational stories. I really enjoy them.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you, Brother Merrill for sharing these inspirational stories. Truly uplifting! My husband also served in the areas you mention, including Gander. Lots of “dooring” in those days! (1978-1980)
Wow. Not many can say that. Thanks for watching
Thank you so much for sharing your inspirational stories, brother Merrill!
It is my pleasure. Thanks for listening
As always, Brother Merrill, excellent stories.
The mountain descent story reminded me of an experience I had. Nowhere near the problem and nothing spiritual, but pretty dang, hilarious. Down in Southern Utah I was a ranch hand part time. On this day, I was to take a salt lick up to a saddle near the top of the mountain. I was able to drive my four wheeler quite a ways up. From there I had an old frame backpack that my father used to use. I felt like this would be the only thing sturdy enough to hold the salt lick and not rip through the bottom. Everything went great getting to the saddle. I set the salt lick in an area. I thought there had been other and left and thinking the same thing. I thought there is an easier way to get back down to my four wheeler. Well, I ran into the same situation on top of the ridge. I had a lava rock ledges. One of these ledges was probably about six or 7 feet high and was surrounded by Oak brush. I could see the the ground , so I thought I would just jump. The next thing I knew I was hanging in the oak brush. The frame backpack got caught in the branches. I was hanging about three or 4 feet above the ground ground. The only thing I could think to do was start bouncing up and down and forcing myself to the ground and it actually worked. at the time I could just see them 20 years from that time finding a skeleton hanging in the oak brush by a backpack. 😂 oh the things we do when we are young.
It is a miracle some of us did. We should have died young
So many times. Lol

Thank you for sharing a being a light in our ever darkening world.
So glad you felt it. Thanks
Thankyou for your stories. Thought about the man jumping into the tree many times but couldn’t remember the story. Thankyou
I loved that story growing up. thanks for watching
This is absolutely uncanny.
I’ve struggled for the past three years specifically in doubt of whether or not I’ve actually heard the voice of the Lord in my life!
I’ve had very strong feelings that were somehow words, and when I’ve acted on these feelings, it hasn’t worked out like I thought. In fact, they seemed like complete flops!
That story was so personal and real to me though, that I’ll continue to take courage, and strive to keep my promise to be patient in suffering; and to believe in Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
Hang in there brother. The Lord has a way of pushing beyond the line we call our limit. I guess that is how He helps us grow. Thanks
Thanks Br Merrill. I can relate to the confusion on inspiration. Our view is often very limited.
We are trapped in time, with limited perspective. It is great knowing God loves me and you and wants to show us the best way through our time.
Yes, praying really works 🙃
Thanks
Good stories , good reminders that God looks out for each of us. I also have had several similar experiences, its good to be reminded of them.
Thanks

Thanks
This is nice, nothing wrong with any of these things. But I've been thinking about all the times that people do not listen to the Lord, or they say that they heard from the Lord when they absolutely have not. The #1 place that I hear from the Lord is in His Word. In second place is His Creation, and I'm wondering if it is a tie. Perhaps the third place should be in his people in His Church, but they're not listening.
I feel close to the Lord in the mountains too. That is where I first heard His voice. I also love being in His holy house. The adversary seems missing in conversations while I am there.. thanks for watching
@@GodLovesYouAskHim No mountains here, so I'll go up to the roof of the Temple to thank and praise the Lord.
@@ts-900 Thanks for watching
