John Taylor and Me

This is what President John Taylor looked like when he lived here in Nauvoo. This hangs in the parlor of the John Taylor home. When I was taking the picture, it put me in the reflection. I guess that made me realize how I should always be standing in the shadow of the prophet.
He was a Methodist Minister when Parley P. Pratt knocked on his door. He was a member of a group known as the "Truth Seekers". What a great experience to know how faithful he was to the commission given him of the Lord.
