His Love

I am so grateful to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  It has brought such joy, peace, and happiness into my life.  When I read or watch the news I feel sad and discouraged.  It's for this reason that I am starting this blog.  I want to share the message of the Gospel and hopefully bring peace, joy, and happiness into other people's lives as they learn about God's love for them, about Jesus Christ's atonement for us all, and about the plan of salvation.  This past weekend was the yearly broadcast for the Relief Society (women) in my church.  It is always great to hear the words of the leaders, apostles, and prophet that encourages, uplifts, and motivates me to want to be a better person.  President Monson talked about God's love for us and how it is always there no matter what we do.  We show our love to God by keeping His commandments, loving and serving others, and striving to be better each day.  Life is hard, and we all have individual trials and hardships we go through.  The Prophet promised that through prayer and scripture study we would be better able to endure these hardships and feel God's love for us.  I invite you to watch or listen to this broadcast. 

General Relief Society Broadcast September 2013

This coming weekend is General Conference.  It is held every six months, April and October.  They are my two favorite Sundays of the year!  We stay home, enjoy our traditional cinnamon/orange rolls, stay in our pajamas longer, and watch it broadcasted live on t.v. or the internet.  I love hearing the talks and being spiritually filled, as well as listening to them on the Mormon Channel app. throughout the six months in between. 

You can watch conference live this weekend here:

General Conference October 2013

I know that these men and women are called of God and speak for Him.  I also know that if I come prepared to listen with questions or problems I am going through, I will receive answers in their talks.  Their messages are beacons that will guide, direct, and inspire us as we navigate through this journey called life.
