Once again words cannot adequately express the happy swellings of my grateful heart. Oh, how glorious is life and friendship! In rich abundance today my heart has overflowed with the pure love of Christ as I communed heart to heart and spirit to spirit with my beloved brother and companion, Elder Blackham. We spent precious hours today discussing prayer and our testimonies and our friendship. Throughout our discussion the Spirit bore strong witness to my soul of the wholesomeness of the things we were sharing.
The spiritual gifts of peace, happiness, and love were abundantly manifest. I openly shared thoughts about my testimony and spiritual progression—things that to me are most sacred—which I have never discussed with any other person. Elder Blackham and I seem to understand each other. We are counselors to each other. Today we were experiencing a bit of what the celestial glories must be like, and I can truly testify that the joy we were feeling, the love that filled our beings, far transcends anything of this world and is shed forth from above. We are actually the sons of God, literally His spiritual offspring, at once a sacred and beautiful thought to both of us. And we are brothers.
