Today is General Conference for our church. I am so grateful for this tradition of gathering in faith. I believe with my whole heart that President Nelson is a prophet of God. I know when I take his direction and meaningfully apply it to my life, I have felt an added power in my life, deeper understanding of who I am in God's plan, and an increased connection with Christ.
This year has been interesting for our family, our state, country, and our world. From natural disasters, to deep discord among each others, to a pandemic, and so many issues. My heart is yearning.
My main questions are:
Where can I turn for peace? Of course, I can turn to my Savior. In all the conflict and chaos and happenings, where is Christ in all this? What should I invest my time and energy in that reflects and builds my love for Jesus.
How can I raise strong sons and daughter. How do I best teach them truths, help them internalize them and be strong and trusting enough to stand for truth.
What must I do to be sufficient for what God has called me to do in this life?
I have faith that I will gain a better eternal context this weekend and will be more sure of which direction I should walk to follow Him. I am praying for the speakers, for members to be one in heart, and for my family that we may internalize the whisperings of the Spirit
