I knew that my time here at this Icelandic apartment was coming to an end very soon and so when Thorstein went back out to sea again, I went into Thorstein's room one last time to sit at that very same desk there to pray and to meditate. For it was there that I came to personally know the Savior, Jesus Christ. It was already 2:00 a.m. and I just couldn't seem to fall to sleep tonight. As I sat there I heard the Holy Spirit audibly whisper to me, "Ken, go to the living room." I immediately arose and went into the living room and knelt down at one of the couches. I poured my whole soul out to God, pleading with Him to help me know where I stood with Him. I could feel the Holy Ghost burn within me. I have felt it many times before when I had prayed, but I struggled within myself and I threw myself upon the floor and cried mightily unto the Lord with all the energy of my soul. And again, I heard the audible voice of the Spirit of the Lord say to me, "Kenneth, look out the window. Be still and know that I am God."
I arose from the position which I had been in, that of being prostrate upon the living room floor, and set upon the couch which was just in front of the large picture window. The curtains had been pulled over to one side and a beautiful grand view was before me. The sky was clear and I could see the ground below (the apartment was on the third floor) and it was covered with six inches of snow. The northern lights, Aurora Borealis, had begun to dance across the sky in a myriad of colors as they had often done on cold clear nights like this one. Then out of nowhere, came these large grey clouds. They started from my left and began to stretch across the entire sky in just a minute or so. Within a few moments, the sky went from clear to cloudy and then it began to snow. Then within a minute or so it began to hail. After hailing for a minute, it stopped altogether. The clouds then began to move away to my right as fast as they had arrived from my left. Soon it was clear again and the northern lights appeared once more. I sat there all amazed at the marvelous show which God had presented unto me in the space of a very short period of time. I felt this peaceful feeling come over me and I knew that everything would all work out for my good. For it is not where you serve the Lord, but how you serve Him. I went to bed and slept peacefully, knowing that all was in God's hands and that wherever and with whomever He would call me to serve, I would go.
