I am so sad that that wonderful experience and great opportunity to hear
from the prophet and his apostles is over. That weekend went by SO
fast! I am so sad that it is over, another 6 months it will happen
again, but that means I will be that much closer to coming home
But it truly was a spiritually uplifting experience. I also enjoyed the
little movies/documentaries in between session. But my mind has been
blown by the new announcement of missionary age. Missionary Age Changes That just testifies to
me that this work needs to move forward at a fast and more urgent pace.
I also had a pretty humbling experience this week as a listened to
the promptings of the Holy Ghost. A few weeks ago we visited a family
and they told us that they would like us to start teaching their
neighbors but that they needed time to prepare them. As we left that
night we felt inspired to go and talk with those neighbors that night,
but we respected what the members had told us and we left and carried on
with our business. Weeks went by and every time we were in that area we
felt we should visit with the neighbors. Finally over conference
weekend, we just decided to stop and introduce ourselves. The husband
came out and greeted us and he told us many times in the contact that he
was so grateful that we came over and that he wanted to know more. He
even set up and appointment right there so that we would teach him and
his family in the members home. It was AWESOME! I just cant believe we
waited so long. After this experience, and a few others, I have come to
better realize that I have been set apart to have the constant
companionship of the Holy Ghost for the salvation of Heavenly Father's
children.
It has been such a spiritually uplifting weekend and time at
conference, its weird to see how viewpoints change as you get older,
hold and have different responsibilities and come with a desire to learn
and become better. I love this gospel so much and owe everything to the
truth of the message it contains, without it I would not be here.
