Conference notes

Story of a woman who was angry and thought, "Someone is going to pay for this", a slient answer responded, "Someone already has".

Who do you represent? It is important to always face the right way.

We must realize we are accountable to God not others,

Queen Esther had courage and faced God instead of her wicked spouse.

Perfect love casteth out fear.

Accepting a new tradition instead of commandments, like lowering standards to fit the people. Doing such is apostasy.

Jesus was so devoted to facing his father that he became indistinguishable from him. It us our choices that defines who we are.

YW ask what she wish that she had known as a young woman.

Atonement enables us to do more than we normally could.

Things are true if you believe them.

Pres. Uchtdorf said that he was asked if he would speak in German. He said, No, but it will sound like it.

The universe did not change, but our ability to percieve and comprehend them does.

Some might use facts or reason to not believe things that are common place in our world today compared to the way it was for them.

God answers our prayers in a way for us to understand like thoughts, feelings, dreams, etc.

To pray and get an answer you must sincerely and ponderfully read scripture.

Strive to believe in prophets.

Ask to manifest truth unto you.

Do God's will. Live it to test it and you will get your testimony. Which is the most important thing to gain.

Natural man thinks spiritual things are foolish. You will not even notice it let alone be able to appreciate it.

Our previous knowledge can even seem foolishness to us.

***How can we communicate with those who cannot even comprehend the core of what is is?***

Gradually, things will come into focus and bless your life in so many ways!

Your testimony must be this tall to enter church.

Consulting people who are anti Mormon would be like consulting Judas to find out more about Jesus Christ.

He used the oxygen mask to explain how we cannot help others unless we are safe ourselves. I often use that.

Listen to a recording of Joseph Smith's testimony in your own voice. It will strengthen your testimony.

Teach the power of prayer not just the routine of prayer.

Story of Mother asked her son if he had prayed for a wife, well, maybe he should cause it is the most important thing.

Would a soldier go to the battle without being protected so mother's ought to not let their children go into the world without protection.

***the more sincere desires are checked by Satan**** who seeks to convince us that redeption OS impossible. Stop making excuses! Strive to be responsible an take care of what you can. If you can do something about anything, do it.

You cannot love God unless you keep his commandments. We cannot pick and choose.

Live the best you can inspire of circumstances.

Do not expect anyone to cheer about your choices or successes to become a better apostle.

Trials are allowed to come into our lives when we are suceeding.

The woman who touched the Lord's garment hem had to put forth the effort to do so in order to recieve the healing blessing.

The spoil of the needy is in your houses. Woah! I love that.

She hath done what she could.

Christianity is not about statistics.

We need to help those who beg us, if we hope to ever be able to he worthy of the suplications and things we beg to God for.

Do what we can.

Who could put a price tag on the worth of a woman who is a faithful mother or grandmother. Their influence in the home is likely the strongest mortal power.

L. Tom Perry, never has there been a greater need for faithful and stalwart parents.
