The Quest

Saturday evening I got back from my stakes Youth Conference. The theme was Ponder-Ask-Know- and Stand! (Book of Mormon theme). Here are a jumble of thoughts... ;)

It was one of THE most amazing and life-changing things I have EVER experienced! There is so much to tell that it would take forever. (that's a big hyperbole.... hehehe) The point I want to get across is that I KNOW there is a God and he knows me personally and he has infinite love fore me. I know that the youth of my stake are strong and have a vision of what we are needed to do in the last days. Our stake leaders love us SO much that they spend 10 months planning for a four day event because and they know the great importance it is and how life changing these experiences are. The Book of Mormon is true. If we follow the teachings it gives we will live with our Father in Heaven in eternal happiness. We must all hold tight to the iron rod and if we do stray, we have the precious gift of repentance that makes it so that we can be with Him and be happy eternally.

Some advice / thoughts on life.....

"When life is throwing all the negatives of the world at you, defeat them with a smile and a hearty laugh." :D

"When you go new places, pause for a moment and take it in by concentrating on smells, sounds, objects, buildings and the feeling of the area around you. It will make it more memorable."
