General Conference


I wanted to record my thoughts and feelings at this time as I just finished watching the last session of General Conference. I have been overwhelmed with the power and Spirit in which the messages were delivered. How blessed I am to have such a wonderful and perfect gospel as the center of my life. The blessings associated with it are endless. It leaves me with a feeling of deep humility as I wonder how I got so blessed to have the truth and the knowledge of the gospel in my life. I know the way to be happy. I know of the life after this one. I know that I will be with my family forever. I know, stronger than I know anything, that I have a Father in Heaven who loves me and is there listening every time I pray and that I have a Savior and Redeemer who suffered above all and gave His life so that I can return and live with Him again. I owe everything I have and everything I am or will become to my Savior. I cherish my relationship with my Heavenly Father- I always have- and that to, is attributed and because of my Savior. I have felt His love and hold such experiences sacred in my heart. I am so grateful for a living prophet along with the apostles. It is so comforting to know that however corrupt or wrong the political world can become, because of the prophet and the apostles we will never be led astray. Listening to Conference was simply amazing. My desire to become a better person in every aspect of my life was strengthened and my desire to live the gospel in every way, was renewed. I'm so grateful that despite my imperfections I have the ability to continue striving to become who I need to be. In the world right now with it's morals declining and belief in Deity questioned, I'm grateful for the sure foundation in which, through the gospel, my life stands.

That is so sweet to share your tender feelings towards how you feel about the Gospel. Conference was especially comforting this time to remind us that we are on the WINNING side even though we feel so out-numbered. I love and miss you! Oh and I love when we are on the "same side" on things too:) Can't mess with that! Love you.
