The truck died a couple of years ago (sounded like a trapped metal squirrel freaking out under the hood–we opted not to buy another new used engine) but it served us well. It’s fun to read about your cars gone by…

The blessings of the Spirit are fabulous, and it’s wonderful to share the gratitude with you. See you on the other side of my vacation =)

It’s posts like this that make me hope your sabbatical will be a short one, Téa! Your testimony reminded me of two things. First, that I was in a car in England when I first heard about the announcement that all worthy men could be ordained to the Priesthood! (Hallelujah!) And second, that I need to be sure that I don’t compartmentalize my life, and thus remain open to inspiration in all situations.

I love it when changes in organization or policy are announced. To me they are signs of a living church, guided by revelation; and also opportunities for me to exercise faith and receive my own personal witness of that guidance.

I love those moments of the Spirit bearing Witness. They never cease to amaze me.

Thanks for this. My Dad bought a little red truck when he retired (although I don’t think it was for inspirational purposes). It was nice to reminded that God speaks to us whereever we are.

Location, state of our hearts, the Spirit can reach us anywhere, anytime–be it for increase of testimony, protection, or comfort. It’s something that I’ve gained a real testimony of, too. We are SO BLESSED to have such a miraculous gift!!! I mean, think about it–it’s huge! Anywhere, anytime, and it’s our for the asking. We could feel so cut adrift from celestial things, given our limited mortal perspective, and yet, we are given such a touching and real lifeline, such a gift. *gratitude*

Oh, and my dad had a little black Chevette when I was a kid; we called it the “Rattle Trap.”

I really enjoyed this. What a blessing it is to be led by a living prophet!
Hugs to you, Téa!

Thank you. Very nice.

I have also had prayers answered while driving a really old little red chevette. Some of these were - keep running, keep running.

Anyway, the expanding nature of the quorums of Seventy are a pretty exciting thing.
