President Boyd K. Packer, began by sharing the experience of a harrowing boat ride from the Samoan island of Savaii to the neighboring island of Upolo. A ferocious tropical storm made air travel impossible, so Elder Packer, his fellow passengers and the ship's crew were forced to make the 13-mile crossing on very rough seas. The boat's captain had to steer the vessel through a narrow passage along a reef to the harbor. A light on the hill above the beach in the harbor and a second lower light marked the narrow passage. When a boat was maneuvered so that the two lights were one above the other, the boat would be lined up properly to pass through the dangerous rocks that lined the passage. Unfortunately, only one light was seen. Why didn’t the other light shine?
What is A pair of elders waiting to meet the boat tired and fell asleep, neglecting to turn on the second light—the lower light—so the passage through the reef was not clear.
