LeGrand Richards — Divine Guidance to a Seeking Family in the Netherlands
Contributed by
Book Research — A Marvelous Work and a Wonder
During his first mission to the Netherlands, LeGrand Richards experienced a distinct prompting from the Holy Ghost to alter his course and visit a specific home. Upon knocking on the door, he discovered a family that had been earnestly praying for God to show them the true path to salvation. The family recognized his arrival as an answer to their prayers. This event resulted in their conversion and baptism, and Richards used the account to illustrate how the Lord prepares the hearts of the 'honest in heart' and directs His servants to find them.
