Conversion means the heartfelt desire to come unto Heavenly father. Although a whole lot is not similar from person to person. It happens a cumulation of constant little things.
Joseph Smith is an example of conversion. It was not a particular event, but he was seeking to be closer to God and seeking his will. It began at an earlier age.
Are we converted to the gospel?
The more we read and study it makes us wonder if we truly are.
Story of a guy who outwardly did what seemed to be a product of a conversion, but then a bishop wondered how he could then do an evil thing.
We do not get to choose what is right but to DO what is right.
A checklist assures you meet your goal.
When you honestly look forward to Sunday, serving others and tithing you are truly converted.
You want to share good things with others.
I know things because I prayed and now undeniably I know the church is true.
There are little things that help you convert. They are not always significant, themselves. But, together they gradually change us.
The Book of Mormon was written for us.
If someone wants to know if the church is true, then read the Book of Mormon.
The Book of Mormon can not legally be translated by other groups with other intentions.
D & C is for the whole world.
Questioning things is paramount to finding thing like d&c. Or all BoM promise.
Old man was called out for walking up to the pulpit when someone gives a prayer if you walk up during a prayer.
Ted Callister's book Christ's church.
Light mindedness should be avoided as the other extreme to being too serious.
God will not pick at our foibles in prayer, it is like facebook or txt messages we forgive others mistakes where we do not even notice them.
A son wanted his mother to remember his name so he asked her , "who am I?" She said, "That poor sap doesn't know who he is."
Not wanting to pray is like not wanting to go to the gym until you are in shape.
We absolutely need the protection for our children!!
Even stalwart examples of prayer some have not yet received a solid idea of who they are.
Stop and think about a time or instance when you absolutely knew and it was probably a feeling, but you knew it was because of prayer.
Pray for everyone! Absolutely, everyone even if you do not know them or like them.
Pray to have that thing you do not.
If you cannot love someone pray for them. Act as if you already do, not a future things.
The law is that what you put in is how you get rewarded they tend to be equal.
God if we know him well, we recognize a way he gives us things in a small not flamboyant way, like Nativity or atonement, things can happen in our heart.
All that inspires us to do good comes from God.
