a week of General Authorities

We have had a wonderful week full of General Authorities here at BYU
on Sunday, we had regional conference.
Elder Boyd K. Packer
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
and Sister Julie B. Beck spoke.

That evening we had a devotional and Elder Richard G. Scott spoke. 
We sat just to the side of Elder Scott.  
You could see us in the broadcast!
Today, we had a devotional and Elder Robert D. Hales spoke.

4 GA's in 3 days!
Good times
favorite thoughts from the speakers:

"You're doing better than you think you are, 
but we're not doing as well as we could be."

"Testimonies should be simple and deep,
not complex and superficial."

The Lord's voting for you.
Satan's voting against you.
it's your vote that counts.

"The pioneer times were the easy times, 
the hard times are about to come."

"Righteous love is the foundation of a 
successful marriage."

"Get a life - get an ETERNAL LIFE"

"When we use our agency,  we choose to move either
towards an open door  with endless possibilities
or to a corner with very few options

"The life our Heavenly Father has planned for us is far more glorious than anything we can imagine ourselves - but it does not come without trial"

  1. "The pioneer times were the easy times,
    the hard times are about to come."

    This one is by far my favorite, as it is all encompassingly true. The Moral fight is a much harder fight, than the Physical one.

    Thanks for the thoughts!
