this is so actually true. So what if you can’t read, it’s the intent of your heart that matters.   It’s not just about reading either. Any part of Gospel living is the 2nd statement. Keep on trying. We may not be perfect but you get credit for trying. God wants you to do your best.

Mormon Friends FTW

Hey guys!  A new blog has come to my attention, WeAreMormonsandWeLoveIt.  They’re looking to gather all the Mormons on tumblr into one community.  It’s a place we can go share our beliefs as well as fandoms! :D  Check it out, it’s going to be great!

And with that, the 183rd session of General Conference is over.

The posts on here from conference are just my notes.  They are not doctrine, and they may not make sense.  They are for me.  If they help you, good.  But they’re full of mistakes and probably slight misquotes.  I did my best. If you want to know more about the talks, you can go to LDS.org

Thomas S. Monson

Study the conference messages further.  

The savior brought a message of love and hope to all men and women, and we must follow his example.  May we always be ready to extend a helping hand and an open heart to others.  Pray for opportunities for service and for rejoicing.  Put our trust in the Lord, and he will help us through all of our difficulties.  

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.  Let us be humble and prayerful.

D. Todd Christofferson

To Redeem is to pay off a debt, or ransom, or to deliver from sin.  Savior is the Great Redeemer.  He atoned for Adam’s transgression, and the fall of man.  Spiritual death is the separation of man from God.  He also atoned for our own sins.  

We know the bad, and have hard times so that we can know and appreciate the good.  

We must bring our families to Christ through peace and repentance.  

Jesus went about doing good.  He came to minister unto people, not to be ministered to.  He served everyone, and to follow in his footsteps, we must as well.  We can defend truth, befriend the weak and poor, and follow his example in all things.

Jean Val Jean in Les Miserables stole from the church, then claimed that they were a gift.  The Bishop then confirmed it and told him to also take the candlesticks, telling him to use the silver to become an honest man.  

Give generously to those around you, even if you don’t have much to give.  You can help to change many people’s lives this way.  As disciples of Jesus Christ, we ought to do everything we can to serve others and lead them back to Christ.

Bruce D. Porter

“In the world, ye shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” - Jesus Christ

We live in the last dispensation.  If we seek prayerfully for help and guidance, we will be blessed with answers.  

We need not fear the future, because God is with us.  Jesus often said “Fear Not.” and “Be of good cheer, and not fear.  For I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you.”

The church is safety for its members, even though the world is vexing; we shall find sanctuary.  God is the Author of this work, and Jesus Christ is the Chief cornerstone.

When our only desire is to serve god, we will be blessed with peace.

We can sing with joy, knowing God’s powers are with his church, and his people. May we look to heaven and say “Oh, What a beautiful Morning.”

Erich W. Kopischke

The feeling of being accepted by someone we love is a basic, human need.  It increases our sense of self worth and confidence.  Often, people seek it in people who do not have their best interests at heart.   Or people may seek status.

Seeking acceptance from the wrong sources puts us on a dangerous path. “See that you look to God, and live” - Helaman

God does not accept us because of our title or position, but because of our hearts.  They accept us because of who we are, and what we can become. Accepting their love will always uplift us.

The heart is the center of our feelings.  We know our motives and desires, and when we are sincere we do not rationalize.  A Broken heart is a soft, open, and receptive heart.  

Worthily partake of the sacrament each week.  PREPARE to take it, and repent to be worthy.  

Accept and Faithfully accept callings in the church.  Strive for righteousness.  

Stand firmly and faithfully when the storms of life are raging all around us.  

Seek the Lord’s acceptance, and enjoy his blessings.  We are accepted of him, regardless of our limitations, status, ect.  

Enrique R. Falabella

Temples are tremendous blessings.  We must work hard to obtain it.

Do not be emotionally abusive to others.

A child who sings is a happy child.  

Heavenly Father is the best at expressing love.  

Search the scriptures, for in them you have eternal life.

It is not enough to know the scriptures, we have to live them.  Knowing the Gospel, and knowing how to live it are two completely different things.  

Christoffel Golden jr

Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are two real, separate beings.  God is our literal heavenly Father.  

“Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the son of man standing on the right side of God.”  

Jesus Christ is the Great Jehovah.  Because of his infinite atonement, he is the savior of the world.  Yet he shall deliver the earth up onto God, who has all authority, rule, and power.  

They are completely separate beings, yet they are united in intent and power.  We must follow their commandments in all things.  

The Holy Ghost is a witness of the Father and the Son, and will teach us all things.  Anyone can feel the Holy Ghost’s presents and gain inspiration   But to have it constantly with them, you must have a broken heart and contrite spirit and be blessed with it.  

We are the Children of our heavenly father.  ”Nothing is going to startle us more when we pass through the veil to the other side than to realize how well we know we our father in heaven and how familiar his face will be to us.”

Dallin H. Oaks

“Come follow me”, our Savior said. Then let us in his footsteps tread. 

We should not be bound to the tradition of men, but it is sometimes hard to separate ourselves from the world.  We might love the praise of men more than the praise of god.  

We should have daily kneeling prayers as a family.  

God created Male and Female, and a man should leave his parents and cleave unto his wife.  

We should go out of our way to seek out any of the sheep that have strayed away.  Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.  / Love one another, as I have loved you…By this shall all man know that ye are my disciples if ye have loved one to another.

We are all heirs of our heavenly parents.  Joint-heirs with Christ.  Heirs of eternal life.  If we come to the father, we are to inherit all things.  All that he has.
