A number of years ago, I was serving as Ward Clerk. Late one evening, I decided to go to the
church by myself to catch up on some records.
It was pitch dark as I pulled into the left turn lane to enter the
church. As I turned though, a solitary
street light reflected something that caught my eye in my rearview mirror: a
pickup truck was behind me, and was turning into the church close behind
me. All of the trucks lights were off,
and I noticed as we turned together that the driver’s window had a shattered
break in it. I feeling of concern came
over me, and the Spirit suddenly told me to get out of there. Rather than parking in a parking stall, I
pulled straight through it, circled back around the cement island, and exited the
parking lot the same way I had come in.
The truck did the same, following close behind. In this case though, as I turned right to
head home, the truck turned left and continued on the way it had been going.
LESSON LEARNED: I
will never know the outcome if I had not heeded this warning and had gotten out
of my car that night. But I am fairly
certain it would have been a bad outcome. I am grateful for the Holy Ghost and the
protection it can give.
FEEDBACK: WHAT
EXPERIENCE WITH THE PROTECTIVE INFLUENCE OF THE HOLY GHOST HAVE YOU HAD?
