Two Missionaries

President Gordon B. Hinckley told of two missionaries he met as a young man on his own mission: "One was a superstar. He was educated. He was bright. He was quick. He was a little arrogant. We had another who was a sign painter. . . . with very little education, but he knew his inadequacies and he relied on the Lord. When he prayed, you know he was talking with the Lord. . . . That young man accomplished wonders while the other young man went through the motions. The power that was int he one and the absence of power in the other was so apparent."

Teachings of Gordon B Hinckley, (1997), 469.
