General Conference

i love conference SO MUCH! this one was so good. oh my. i love the prophet Thomas S. Monson and his counselors Henry B. Eyering and Deiter F. Uchkdorf.



i loved the saturday afternoon session so much. i didn't take notes on saturday morning and i wish i had, but i took tons of notes on the afternoon. i especially loved Jeffrey R. Holland's talk about angels. wow! how powerful!


but my absoulute favorite talk on saturday afternoon would have to be David A. Bednar's talk about how to make prayer more meaningful. we had to pause his talk so many times so that we could write down amazing stuff that he said.


of course i loved all of the talks given today, and i even stayed awake the whole entire time (a first for me) but those two on saturday afternoon REALLY just blew me away. i love this gospel so much. i'm so grateful for the prophet and i know that he is called of God. i know that we recieve revelation today through the prophet, through reading the scriptures, and sometimes it comes when we are least expecting it. i know that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior and that without him there is no way that i could have eternal life. i'm so grateful for what he did for me. i'm so grateful for the sacrifices that Joseph Smith made in order to bring about this great and marvelous work. i love missionary work so much and i know that through it we are all blessed. i'm so excited for my best friend jared to serve in the Harrisburg Pennsylvania mission starting in december. i love conference and i'm so glad that we have it and that we can be spiritually edified through the words of the Lord. i say these things in Jesus' name amen.

Thanks for sharing your testimony Amberly. I love you so much and I so glad that you are such a good example to my kids. I have to admit I love conference too but it gets harder to get to just sit and watch it. Thank heavens for the internet and ensign conference report.
