Some members of our ward thought it would be a great idea to share these ideas.
From FB:
'Hey everyone! I think it would be cool if everyone posted something that stood out to you in conference. This is what stood out to me: Walter F. Gonzalez talked about seeking to learn essential truth with our hearts. From his words I learned that satan is very skilled at making us afraid to feel. People sin and then he makes us ashamed and then he presents things to us that will make us numb. And then we get caught in that numbness until the very moment we repent. Satan wants us to be afraid to feel because we cannot learn truth with undoubted surety without feelings and emotions.' -DB
'Elder Holland' -CW
'Holland "The crowning characteristic of love is loyarly." If we truly love God, we'll prove our loyalty by keeping His commandments. We can't quit. We can't go back.' -DW
Also, for FHE last night the ward hiked to the Y on the mountain where we had a lovely devotional and everyone had an opportunity to share what they learned from conference. It was a beautiful view and there was a great unity there! Some of the topics brought up include:
-Serving others: this ward is a great place to serve others and to be served.
-Love God
-God has a plan for everyone, and each trial we go through helps us to accomplish all He has in store
-Prayer works!
-The Spirit can be felt in nature
Great night!
