God Speaks, Miracles have not ceased.
In John 10:16 Jesus' disciples were upset that he was leaving. They wanted to understand the purpose of Jesus only staying on earth for a short time after the resurrection. They loved him and wanted to remain by his side to learn from his example for the rest of their lives. And Jesus answered them and said- "And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd."

I prayed to receive personal revelation concerning the meaning of this. Through more study the Lord told me it was a fulfillment of prophecy. God told Jesus there would be more people in other parts of the world looking for the signs of His coming and they needed him as much as the people in Jerusalem did. He had more lives to enrich. He needed to teach more people about the path that they should follow to receive Salvation.
I've come to more fully understand and appreciate the time Jesus spent on the earth teaching his apostles about Charity and teaching them to take time for the individual. Another source of scripture I have come to trust fully is the Book Of Mormon. In 3Nephi chapter 11 Christ comes to the native Americans living in North / South America and teaches many of the same principals of love and healing. Having a second witness to my soul that Jesus loves his children all over the world and wishes for them to come to Him.
How fortunate am I that God knew I would wonder about this scripture. He prepared a way for me to receive the answer to my prayer by asking a prophet who lived over 2,000 yrs ago to document the things of their time. The answer to my question was written on gold plates buried in the ground and are now written in the English language in a book called The Book Of Mormon.
I found this Movie clip about modern revelation and the Book Of Mormon. I love our Savior. I know he sacrificed his life for me. I feel his grace pour upon me every time I ask for forgiveness and work a little harder to become like him. I know he loves me. I feel his spirit impress upon my mind what I should do and how I should act. The very core of my being testifies that he Lives, that he still speaks. I hold The Book of Mormon and Bible in my hand and know this is a tangible gift God has given me to prove his love and his existence in my life. I have more purpose when I study from these books. They make me feel more whole than any other source of education I have ever used.
