This weekend is a wonderful opportunity for us to hear the word of The Lord. There is so much hope, love, and comfort spoken by the Prophet and the Apostles. After watching one of the sessions this morning, I feel the love of our Savior and even more love for my family.
Camden was such a good boy this morning! He sat through the first ten minutes quietly on the couch and stared at the tv while the choir sang (that's his favorite part. He loves hymns!), a prayer was given, and President Monson spoke. Afterwards, he got restless and decided it was time to quietly play with his Legos.
The messages that were spoken were beautiful and powerful. I especially enjoyed Elder Holland's talk. How true it was! It made me even more grateful to be a dedicated and converted follower of Christ. I would give my life before I denied the truth of this gospel or my Savior.
I was surprised no new temples were announced, but having almost 170 temples operating world wide is such a blessing! It gives me so much joy as I see these beautiful buildings built so those who are worthy may enjoy the blessings it brings and to help their loved ones who have gone on before. What a wonderful time we live in!
Matt was able to join us for the morning session before he left for work. How grateful I am for his hard work for our family! Camden has become quite the daddy's boy lately. I love seeing these two together. I'm so grateful we're sealed for eternity and never have to worry about "until death do us part".
There are three more sessions of conference to be enjoyed: this afternoon, Sunday morning, and Sunday afternoon with a priesthood session this evening. Everyone is invited to listen and feel of the spirit regardless if you are a member of the church or not! It's available at LDS buildings, www.lds.org, the radio (although I'm not sure what station), and the BYU channel on tv. So come! And listen to a prophet's voice. Your life will be changed for the better!
