On Choosing to Follow God (and, as it turned out, not my wife)

1896

This is just the beginning of trouble. Katherine rejected my testimony of going to Canada, and threatened not wanting to go to Canada with me.

She came to the conclusion, if I would go to the head of the Church, the first presidency, if they would tell me that Canada was the place for us, then she would go with me, so I went to the head of the Church, and had a call of Joseph F. Smith to go to Canada.

She still opposed my testimony and accused me for being led of the devil. She told me if I went to Canada, there would be trouble.

Now I had to take my choice. Obey God or my wife. I know I was called of God through His Holy Spirit, and after that by President Joseph F. Smith, and after that a revelation from Jesus Christ in a dream received by our seven year old son.
