It's better to look up!

This weekend we had General Conference, and it was AMAZING!

Exactly what I needed. After everything that has happened to me this summer and the stuff I'm going through now, it came right at the right time. I've definitely learned a lot from it. Given me a new view on things in my life. Let's just say it was a spiritual feast!

Here are some brief things that were said that stuck out to me the most:


  • DESIRE
  • We are the reason he made the universe. We are everything to God.
  • Our existence here is a small moment in space and time.
  • We matter to him.
  • Be as quick to kneel as we are to text
  • It's better to look up.
  • Look up. Step up. Cheer up. God wants us to be happy.
  • Be a guardian of Virtue
  • Be loyal to the royal in you
  • "I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints."
  • Best compliment in this life: A Covenant Keeper
  • Reach out. Serve. Assist.
  • Be grateful for all the tender mercies that come into our lives.
What I have taken out of this General Conference is that I need to just put the Lord first and live the Gospel and trust the Lord that things will work out for the better. Heavenly Father loves me, and he wants to give me blessings. He wants me to be happy. He'll only tell me what to do if I make a decision. And I think I have. I look back at my life and I've come so far from 3 years ago. And when times are down it is better to look up.

peace
