Elder Henry Horsley

What is up friends and family!? I hope you are doing well! I sure am because I am just absolutely loving reading the new missionaries emails who are like 1 week out and they are like "my gosh this mission thing is truly flying by!" I love you new missionaries thank you for bringing joy into my life. For a matter of fact I love everyone who is reading this, I pray for you and hope you are doing amazing! 🚨Before I start, if you have found that your testimony is at all depleting or the stuff you hear about our church or about religion in general is discouraging you whatsoever or causing you any sort of questions or doubts or whatever is eating at you, the Lord needs you to listen to the voice recording I attached below, I hope it helps🚨 Anyways here is my spiritual thought. There is so much against the BOM and Joseph Smith and Christianity in general, it's insane. I am like 98% sure everyone on here has heard something contrary to the restoration or the Savior Jesus Chri...

Howdy everyone I hope y'all are doing well! I am having a great time serving the Lord! "Do I really have to forgive everyone?! What if they did something bad?!" - Joanna My wonderful friend Joanna hit me with this overly profound question this week, and it has left me thinking. When she asked it I answered her with this scripture: "I, the Lord, will forgive whom I will forgive, but of you it is required to forgive all men" In my mind there are two definitions of the word forgiveness. The majority of us define forgiveness and just kinda moving on with whatever happened and calling it a day. That is part of it but I like the second definition more. I like to call this one the Joanna definition of forgiveness. Joanna is one of the most purely good souls I have ever met in my whole life, that is why she was so dismayed with this question. Forgiveness to Joanna is an act of pure mercy and grace being done out of love to someone who has intentionally or unintentio...

Howdy everyone, hope y'all had a great week! I have some great news, my brother Calder is getting engaged! Nope I am just yanking ya chain, he is still on the NASDAQ for eligible men in provo, the good news is that the google photos is back: https://photos.app.goo.gl/qwGY1QhS99ne5wGy8 My new favorite talk these days is a talk given in 1983 called "Anonymous" by Thomas S Monson. When I listened to this talk my soul quaked, I have since listened to it probably 5 times a week, it is so dang good. In the talk it quotes one of my favorite scriptures: "Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven." This talk literally changed my perspective on life and I am so grateful that it did. When I think about people who exemplify this verse I cannot think of a better example than my parents. Throughout my entire life I have never seen them deny an opportunity to serve someone in need. They...

What is upppp everyone!? I hope y'all had a splendid week, because I sure did! I really do miss and love each one of you and I hope you're aware of that. POV you're me last Saturday night and the clock has struck "bath time" so you're excited to go have a revelatory bath experience and as soon as you walk in the bathroom the Spirit stops you and says "CALL KEYJUN." Keyjun is one of the best friends I have ever had, we met in Tyler and we shared the most spiritual experiences of both of our lives together. Keyjun has super difficult life circumstances and I hadn't even heard from him in 2 months AND it was already bath time so this was an interesting prompting. But I decided a while ago, that when the Lord speaks, Elder Horsley will listen no matter what. So I meandered my way out of the bathroom and gave him a call. No answer. Spirit says "call again" so I did. He answered and it was so hype to hear his voice again I nearly shed a tear...
