Second Thoughts

Our young friend Nader who asked to have his name removed from the records of the Church is having second thoughts about what he did.  Tonight he stopped by our apartment to talk and to tell us he isn't happy that he did it.  He thought he would be happy, but he's not.  He said he prayed and asked Heavenly Father lots of questions.  He told us he was given the impression that he should pray and read the scriptures.

We talked to him for over an hour about his concerns and told him to have courage and faith that the Lord will help him.  We know he feels a lot of pressure as a military man in a Muslim country, but he can expect a miracle if he has the Lord by his side.  We're not sure he's convinced.  We sent him away with a prayer and a hug.

The Holy Ghost is one of the greatest gifts of God.  When you give it up, you are sure to feel a big loss in your life.
