Being Heard, but Not by Shouting
189
Elder Farnsworth: “They are all around in every conference.”
Ellen White: “In my younger days I used to talk too loud. The
Lord has shown me that I could not make the proper impression upon
the people by getting the voice to an unnatural pitch. Then Christ was
presented before me, and His manner of talking.
There was a sweet melody in His voice. His voice, in a slow, calm
manner, reached those who listened. His words penetrated their hearts,
and they were able to catch on to what He said before the next sentence
was spoken.”—
