The Lord is Trying to Bless You: Don't Get in the Way
Rosemarie Howard | University Advancement | 22 March 2007
Using stories, and toys as visual aids, Elder Eric G. Stephan, a Service Missionary in the Religion Department, spoke 22 March 2007, at the weekly BYU-Hawaii university devotional.
As a young missionary in Samoa, Elder Stephan overheard a conversation between another missionary and LeGrand Richards. The elder was frustrated and angry at the treatment he and his companion had received at the hands of some villagers. He wanted to shake the dust off his feet and curse the village.
Elder Richards responded saying, “Elder, the Spirit of the Lord has been working with these people for years and years; after you leave he will continue to work with these people for years and years. Don’t mess up the work of the Spirit of the Lord for the short time you are here.”
