Hear Him to Find Success, Happiness, and Joy

Pres. Nelson said in this last General Conference:  "In those two words—“Hear Him”—God gives us the pattern for success, happiness, and joy in this life. We are to hear the words of the Lord, hearken to them, and heed what He has told us!"  Pres. Nelson asks, "where can we go to hear Him?" and then suggests:

  • "We can go to the scriptures."
  • "We can also hear Him in the temple."
  • "I promise that as you increase your time in temple and family history work, you will increase and improve your ability to hear Him."
  • "We also hear Him more clearly as we refine our ability to recognize the whisperings of the Holy Ghost."
  • "And, finally, we hear Him as we heed the words of prophets, seers, and revelators."

Hear Him

Every day I strive to do these things that I might Hear Him, and looking back through my life, I remember seeing many evidences that I have heard him and have been blessed with success, happiness, and joy.


I believe this "success" is another way to look at "prospering in the land", and the Lord continues to prosper me.  I testify that this is true.  It happens over and over and over again.
