I came across this scripture and thought of my awesome missionary brother.
The Lord was talking to the sons of Mosiah after they prayed for help and the Spirit, and He said, "Go forth among the [Canadians], thy brethren, and establish my word; yet ye shall be patient in long-suffering and afflictions, that ye may show forth good examples unto them in me, and I will make an instrument of thee in my hands unto the salvation of many souls" (Alma 17:11).
"And it came to pass that the [heart] of [Elder Mortenson], and also those that were with [him], took courage to go forth unto the [Canadians] to declare unto them the word of God" (Alma 17:12).
I love the personal application of scriptures!
