My companion and I were sitting at the beginning in our Branch Sacrament meeting. It had snowed all night which had a pretty big effect on people coming to church. Only half of the ward members were able to make it and we couldn't see any of the people we were teaching. Feeling a little bummed, Sacrament meeting started and we began singing the opening hymn. As we were singing, a recent convert stood up and walked to sit with the deacons to pass the Sacrament. He had just received the Aaronic Priesthood and had been ordained a priest the week prior. Immediately, our disappointed feelings were gone as we watched this new member conquer his nervousness to use the priesthood for the first time. He has three sons under the age of 12 and all three of them were watching intently as the meeting went on. I am grateful for this opportunity we had to witness this incredible miracle with such a special family. This young father is learning and growing in the Gospel and setting a righteous example for his young sons. He and his wife plan on being sealed as a family for time and all eternity next August.
There can be miracles when you believe in God.
