Today I’m teaming up with the Wilford Woodruff Papers to bring you a day in the life of this legendary missionary. On October 16, 1842 Wilford Woodruff wrote in his journal,

“I spent the whole day teaching [and] blessing the Elders. The spirit and power of God rested upon us in a great degree. The Heavens were opened unto us and our minds were filled with visions, revelations, and prophesy. We sealed great blessings upon their heads as we were moved upon by the Holy Ghost and we told them things that would befall them by sea & by land. They will do a great work and gather many saints and much wealth to Zion.”

I testify that the heavens will continue to open around us as we make the greatest cause, the greatest challenge, and the greatest work on Earth today our central focus. When have the heavens opened for you? Let us know in the comments below!
