Conference

I love to see the temple

We have a living prophet

Conference has been so uplifting this weekend. It is nice to be able to listen to the Brethren speak and be reminded of what we need to do to be a little better. A major theme that I found while listening both yesterday and today were that of service. When we are serving our fellowmen we are serving the Lord. Elder Snow of the Seventy today spoke of how there is always more that we can do. We are never finished in the work. I know that is true. I think it is sometimes easy to think that we are doing enough, but we should always be striving to improve ourselves by working in the Gospel and serving others.

At this moment, I would have to say that my favorite talk was given by Elder Bednar this morning. He spoke of turning toward Christ and learning from Him. He also said that our goal should be to have our hearts changed. We can have clean hands, but not have a pure heart. It makes me step back and evaluate my life. Do I have both? Am I taking those small, steady, incremental, spiritual steps that I need to in order to obtain my goal?

I love being able to listen to the Brethren and I am grateful for their inspiration. What a great blessing it is to hear from them and be able to reevaluate where I am in my life. Conference really makes me happy.
