August 30, 1846 ~ Sunday

[FIGURE]
30^th Sunday I met at the place of meeting with
the 12 & church. Elder Kimbal addressed the
Meeting I followed him. Elder Young followed & gave
many principles of interest. said we must have exp-
erience if we had done right & known how to have
Magnifyed the Priesthood we should not have been
driven from Jackson County but must have experiec
in order to be prepared to govern the kingdom of God
We met in council at 5 oclok at Br Kimbals
tent. President Young there addressed the meeting
And said that it was an Eternal Principle that
before God would chose A man to rule any part
of his kingdom he must first learn to be ruled
And that the Lord was preparing A people for that
purpose & fifty years would not pass away before
many who are now present will each rule over
many more than what I do this day
