      What is to sustain? Not sure you heard... but Joseph Smith lied. There was no such thing as priesthood or being a prophet. He used that to line his own agenda with power and authority. The church bought it and continued the lie. He is, however, a good orator.

    President Holland, like so many, we have been praying for you for months, have missed you, and were wondering if you might be present for President Ballard's funeral, and were so happy when you stood to speak. You surely appeared much stronger than you are, and we missed President Nelson terribly, but we hope you might be with us for another long season. And then to have you deliver such a powerful and personal message with so many meaningful insights. Thank you President Holland, and may God bless you, President Nelson, and all the prophets and Apostles that guide us. We love you, sustain you, and are striving to be completely obedient in all our Leaders ask of us.

    President Holland looks and sounds so much better. The last time I heard him speak publicly was when he announced the change in leadership at BYU. May his tenure as acting president of the Quorum of 12 Apostles be both long and impactful.

    I thank the Lord for preserving now President Holland's life. Obviously, the Lord has a lesson of two for him to learn now as acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve. A calling to which, no doubt, the Lord has reiterated his words to him spoken in 1990, "This is my work." To which I have full faith in him to carry out to success, with the Lord's help, like he did before, some 30 years ago. Thank you President Holland. Still praying for you my friend. May God continue to bless you till He calls you home to walk through the vale back to Him and your Pat. I loved hearing from you again.

    What a beautiful message! I'm very touched by what was said by President Holland. President Ballard, and Holland are such great examples of showing true Christlike love for mankind around the world! I know that they were called to be true apostles of the true church. I know that Joseph Smith was and is a true prophet, that the Book of Mormon is true, and that Jesus Christ is our personal Savior, and only hope for eternal life in families.

    But I'm SO VERY GRATEFUL that the Lord preserved your life and brought you back to us! I'm sure there were millions around the world praying for your recovery! I know I was every day! I was elated when I heard you had been healed!!! The combination of all our prayers, and especially President Ballard's blessings, had a great hand in that, I'm sure!
    I know the Lord preserved youdear Elder Holland, because you were the right man to fill President Ballard's BIG empty shoes!
    I LOVE YOU, dear Elder Holland, and your adorable sense of humor. You have such a gift for speaking and I've learned SO VERY MUCH from you over the years! THANK YOU! I pray that the Good Lord will bless you with many, many more good years go come!!!❤🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    They speak about hearing voices etc here to a small church audience but at their general conference talks which they know many can watch they repeat the same dribble over and over of things like the first vision and talk about tithing ect.. So if we are to believe him then he is basically saying he has heard god speak to him and predict the future to him but he won’t tell us anything else, strange for a so called prophet of god don’t you think?
