General Conference April 2009

Don't you feel a sense of peace after listening to conference. I do. I had been waiting for this conference weekend to come. Mostly due to the way things are in the world right now. I was anxious to hear what the speakers had to say and what encouragement they would give. I have to say, they did not disappoint. (They never do!)I felt so good after listening to the Prophet and his counselor's and it was all very simple...Stay strong, Attend the Temple, Share the Gospel, Be Prepared. Even though things are crazy in the world and they will only get worse, I know I can still have peace in my life if I just do those things. I am so grateful to belong to this church. In my (almost) 32 years of life I feel like I "get it". Life is really not about the clothes you wear or the car you drive or where you live. To me its about how you treat others, if you're really doing what Jesus would do. I know I'm not perfect and I know I have made plenty of mistakes, but I honestly hope I can do better...be better, try harder, give more! I want to live up to my potential!
