ahhhh. conference weekend. two of the best weekends of the year. i really love october conference. it seems like it just kicks off one of my favorite times of the year.
i love fall! and what a better way to start it out by receiving guiding words from the leaders of our church. i loved how back to basics this conference was.
{pray} . {study the scriptures} . {keep your covenants} .
{keep your standards high} . {follow the commandments}.
these are just a few of many great things that were spoken about during conference. my ward had ward conference last week, and our wonderful stake president asked that we pray specifically for questions to be answered. to go into conference with a question in our minds and hearts. to pray for an answer. he promised that if we did this in faith, our questions/concerns would be answered and our testimony of Jesus Christ would be strengthened.
i did. and did i receive an answer? you bet.
what a blessing it is to have such incredible instruction. here are a few things i loved from conference. please feel free to share your thoughts as well :)
