general conference
My goodness conference was absolutely wonderful.
This past conference weekend was seriously one of the best. The spirit taught me so many wonderful things and touched my heart in many ways. I received inspiration and answers to questions that I hardly knew I had. It's hard for me to even be able to begin expressing my gratitude for this sweet gospel and the way it truly blesses my life. The Holy Ghost is real, our Heavenly Father loves us, and Christ paid the greatest sacrifice of all. I learned of these truths more this weekend. Not only through the way the Spirit taught me but through the talks of these great truths.
The killer question... that is often asked, what was your favorite talk. This question should honestly not even be allowed because it is so hard to choose. Each talk touched my heart in a special way and inspired me in a unique way. General themes could be spotted through out conference and I was extremely grateful for the ones that stood out to me. One of the greatest topics that stood out to me and kept coming to mind was the focus on the sacrament and sacramental prayers. I noticed many times that we were reminded that it is through the sacramental prayers that we are able to always have his spirit to be with us and that we may always remember him. A couple months ago we had a wonderful lesson in Sunday school about the sacrament. I was able to evaluate my conduct that took place during the sacrament and set goals for myself to be better at focusing more on my Savior. And I've been able to do better and feel closer to my Savior and have a deepening love for him and all that he has done for me. Yet I still need reminders each and everyday to remember him. I received so many powerful reminders from general conference.
It is pretty much impossible for me to choose a favorite talk. The divine inspiration that each one gave me and the invitations that the Spirit whispered to me make it rather hard to settle on just one being my favorite. I often find key phrases from each speaker and let those guide me to be better and remind me what they spoke about. The Spirit is real and it guides my life in every way.
Hold
tight, sail on. Forever is composed of nows. The Holy Ghost makes what is good
more attractive. Desire to inspire. Prepare with spiritual strength. Be better,
climb higher. Purity is possible, through Christ. Nothing will change His love
for you. Why are you worried, I will take care of you. Isn't it wonderful? Everyday plead unto Him. Trust. Our Savior cures us. You are His trusted
disciple. We need women who make important things happen. Tighten your grip. Ponderize. Disasters will come, strive to be faithful. Preach the good news. It
requires consistency. You are doing better than you think you are. He takes us
as we are and makes us more than we ever imagined. Smile it will lighten
burdens. We must be centered around Christ. Can ye feel so now? God wants us to
have joy. The Lord will qualify those whom He calls. Turn it off, rip it off, throw it out. He is
the light which shineth in darkness. Be ship shape.We must win this battle. Make covenants, continually repent, endure to the end. Simplify.
This gospel is true. I have no doubt about it. Conference is a divine meeting and I know that each message is truly inspired. I am so grateful for this church. And for technology, because it is seriously wonderful being able to already go back and read all the conference talks. I LOVE THIS GOSPEL.
