- This compelling story of an 1850s gold prospector illustrates how giving service to others blesses our lives.
Read Elder M. Russell Ballard's entire address "Finding Joy Through Loving Service" @ bit.ly/LovingService
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
Dude that guys my seminary teacher....... COOL!
Really?! That is great and cool!
I am Catholic, yet I loved this video and the message. Honor Jesus Christ through helping others.
It is my prayer that as followers of Christ, trying to do His will the best we know, we may unite in our joyous knowledge of Christ and His divine role. Thank you, fellow Christian, for all you have done for the cause of Zion, whatever it may be.
I was sad and devastated I had to leave my church after years being a member . I see know GOD my loving father had a plan and destiny I found the restored church and true church I love you my new found truth and loving church the church of JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS THANK YOU FATHER AND JESUS is precious son and savior I know this church is true and JOSEPH SMITH was a true prophet and that president THOMAS S MONSON IS OUR TRUE PROPHET

Brother for every one step you take towards him I honestly feel he will take two towards you. Stay the path.....til we meet him again. God Bless.
we are so lucky to have these men, and the gospel, we need to give thanks every day!
If you're studying, think of every note you write or every practice-test you take as a flake of gold.
It really does add up into something very precious.
As a Geologist, and Christian, I really appreciate this message.
when I am feeling down like today,it is a blessing to have these videos to reflect upon. Thank You for posting them:)
Nice, I liked that. Our small acts turn out to be treasure, far more than we realize, at the time.
I've found that the spirit shows me truths this way. A fleck of feeling here and there. Sometimes a grand nugget of overwhelming sensation but for the most part, a small whisper.
helping an old lady across the road has been the highlight of my last 6 months
I loved this video! This not only applies to service, but many other aspects of life. A little at a time can make us wealthy!
The Gospel of Jesus Christ has given me so much. Peace, joy, but also the ability and the desire to serve and help my family and my fellow man. Jesus is the Christ and he leads all men to righteousness, strength, selfless service and lasting peace and happiness. Thank you Lord Jesus for never giving up on me, or on my family. I will always remember you and the man you have inspired me to become. A man that loves you above all else. :)
I _love_ these excellent, priceless Church videos. So well-done, so important to lives. Thank you so much! 💛🙏🏼
I love this video.As Elder Ballard had said our small acts of kindness will accumulate to become bigger and bigger. In every small things, great things shall come to pass.
these beautiful videos always make me want to be a better person :")
Thank you. this was Heaven sent.
The journey there that you traveled from the beginning until the end was the happiness that you created throughout that whole time. It's the journey thats worth more than the gold. The journey is priceless.
I'm so glad that we truly have apostles and prophets guiding us through messages like these, I cringe to think where I would be without the gospel.
Thank you for having this captioned. I really enjoyed watching. :)
I used to watch this video while I was eating on my mission! Good days :’)
#Daysnevertobeforgotten
This is the hardest part of mining. Recovery of the very fine gold. Panning was the way that a lot of folks did it (and still do it). When I first went into the mining business many moons ago, a good friend of mine (and a former miner) told me, "I will tell you everything you need to know about gold mining in just two words". "Hard Work"! He was right. Theodore Sumrall
i wish i could watch these videos all day!!!!!(even during school)173 dislikes y would ANYONE dislike this?
Let us be grateful for the smaller and simpler things...
Beautiful video! Thank you for posting. I needed this reminder today.
I LOVE this Video!!!! A definite Favorite!!!
Thank you for the reminder and how it change my perspective on life.❤️❤️❤️ #givethanks
These are wonderful!!!!!
thank you for posting another great message.
Love this story
Searching beyond the mark. Those things of greatest value sometimes take the longest time to aquire or at least fully appreciate, like our experiences
son of God is a blessing amen to everyone and hope we have a good time🙏🙏🙏
I really liked it! They have gold panning at the Mormon Battalion museum in San Diego and this reminded me of it. I really liked this video.
This teaches so many lessons.
how wonderful to know our little acts of service are like flecks of Gold
building up tresure in heaven
I remember this story from conference, can't wait for general conference! :D
Great stuff! As always :)
Good bless you all
Love this video ❤
We might all learn from this!
Great perspective!
Interesting. This is indeed quite so interesting. I watched this all the way from beginning to end.
Good video, thank you❤
This actor is a Seminary teacher at my school!!!
This is awesome :)
The gold could also be like blessings, we are looking to get rich, or to miraculously cured, when we don’t see the little flecks we have, such as food, housing, the internet, ease of living, and loved ones to share life with
Amazing
I agree. There are many things that would rule us and we must reject such things. At the same time I need to remind myself not to let me ego rule me!
Love these videos, but I also love the freedom I have as an atheist.
It was the patient accumulation that brought him wealth. He did not say that he only got wealthy when he got old. When we watch near the ending of this video, we can tell that he is wise and experienced by the way he teaches the younger man. Patience is a great thing to learn.
I actually got back from a geology field trip and found some flecks of gold!
I felt the younger man's frustration since it was FAR from easy.
I love this video. I have a pretty good channel and the only videos i keep up from recently watched are from Mormon Messages.
SHAY SENT ME HERE
@ilikesuzuki Mormons believe in God. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has a prophet and apostles that are the mouthpieces of God here on earth. I know that if we listen to their counsel, we will be able to follow God.
Amen!!!🙏❤️👆🏾
yea he is an extremely CUTE seminary teacher!
god bless
Amen
@DeusUniversa10... From an Apostle of the Lord "The gospel of Jesus Christ is not an obligation, it is a pathway marked by our loving father in heaven, leading to happiness and peace in this life, and glory and inexpressible fulfillment in the life to come. The gospel is a light that penetrates mortality and illuminates the way before us.
Nice video
Late in life Karl Jung, who was Sigmund Freud's star student, was asked if he believed in "the Here After". The old man, then in his 80s, looked at his young inquisitor and replied; "No, young man, I do not believe in the here after. I KNOW IT!" Perhaps in time, Mr. Stall, you too will come to this knowledge. Until such time be of good heart.
Remi, you don't understand. We DO believe that we are all sinners and are in need of Jesus blood to wash sin away.
Our faith leads to our works. One can't have true faiths without works, or true works without faith. They are two halves to a whole.
By our Temples and sacrament, we remind ourselves of our faith in Christ. It is not as if we are adding things for salvation except that which Jesus Christ has already said.
In other words, you misunderstand how we feel about these things! :)
While I don't believe in god, this is true. I really like this video :)
❤❤❤😊
@DeusUniversa10 Agreed my friend.
@DeusUniversa10 I have to agree.
@ilikesuzuki These videos provide life learning messages that are provided by the LDS (Mormon) church to learn life long lessons to help us become better people. There are at least a hundred videos that the church has put out that are similar to this video.
@SugarFreeTargets This channel is here to spread the gospel of Jesus through wonderful little messages like this one, and to bring as all closer to Christ by reminding us that He still calls prophets today just like in the times of the bible :)
thumbs up if shay brought you here!
shaycarl watched this
Shaycarl.
Pretty sure that was pyrite, as he didn't ever seem concerned about it.
funny thing is, gold can be found along with pyrite. various ores contain both. quartz vein especially can have a lot of pyrite and a bit of gold.
Do you not know that God always speaks through the voice of his prophets. It is the in quiet and still voice which few in the world will hear let alone listen to. John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
I feel like that man that find himself with the river full of gold but does not have the skill to harvest properly

@abrown2986 157 people probably came here thinking this was gonna be a chuck norris video
Wonder who gave him that gold nugget he had the whole video...
@GCrow12 why is the so misleading, Mormon Message so, this is just Mormon message, not God?
Without Jesus Christ, the ordinances and the temple are of no effect. Inasmuch as Jesus Christ has paid the price of sin, He has laid the way for us, commanding us to be baptized and receive all the ordinances of salvation, administered by His Holy priesthood. So, we can't be saved without Him, and He has told us how to receive that salvation. (Also, the Watchtower has nothing to do with the LDS church. That's the Jehovah's Witnesses.)
Didn't Jesus say to give up all your posessions if you wanted to follow him?
1:30
Why all the dislikes? Odd
hi
@SirGabriel2076 "While many interpret the Bible to make God subjective, the Bible itself says that God only respects those who obey the Golden Rule."
Well, that's a nice thought, but I bet you wouldn't like it if some powerful group told you that you couldn't marry the person you loved because of some belief they had. It's none of their business, but they stop you anyway. Wouldn't that be terrible?
How would you feel? That breaks the golden rule, doesn't it?
THARS NO GOLD HERE!
Flannel, how could you proclaim this with such absolute certainty?
Surely, you do not know with any true degree of certainty at all that "God is not real." By it's very nature, you can't!
But may be that's the job he loved. In which case he already had the "better job".
Just haters. Good people recognize good and enjoy it, no matter its presenter, for all good originates from God. But those who serve a different master, whether they know of their service or not, despise any good that they deem comes from the "wrong" source.
first
But the guy was so old by the time he got rich, he might as well have found a better job.
In my case, they are flecks of sin.
This is not the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel says that we are all sinners and are in need of Jesus blood to wash sin away. The Bible teaches something different; all my good works are as filthy rags and Eph 2:8-9 says that it is "not by works lest any man should boast". You must accept Jesus ONLY, because He says I am the Way the Truth and the Life and no man comes unto the Father but by Jesus. You cannot add the LDS temple, nor the sacraments nor the Watchtower or anything for salvation.
+RemiKJV1611, what about the temple in Jesus day? If Jesus Christ needed a temple, why shouldn't we want one? If we accept Jesus and he accepts a temple, why not build them? And did He not command that Israel build a tabernacle and later a temple? Last I read, God is unchanging. If they needed a temple then, then we need a temple now.
Without the atonement of Jesus Christ, all of our good works would not benefit us. Fortunately, the atonement was made. Because of that grace, our works (done through faith) allow us to become more like Christ and are for our good.
Amen
