General Conference {Just a Bit Late}

This weekend was wonderful. And really long and exhausting. More on the weekend later though! While I was driving back to Flagstaff yesterday {after driving down to the valley in the morning to help my sister get ready for her Homecoming dance!} I listened to the afternoon session of October General Conference. {The drive is just about two hours and so is a session of General Conference--PERFECT!} I got to hear apostles speak the word of God. It was inspiring and relaxing and didn't put me to sleep {honestly, I was a little bit afraid that it might make me tired rather than keeping me awake}! I loved how many things applied to me personally. I am almost itching to go for another two hour drive just so that I can listen to another session of General Conference {I would listen to it at home but I usually end up falling asleep}.


Here are some things that I was impressed to do from the Saturday afternoon session: 

  • Manage my time better. {Prioritize, 
  • Use social media things for good {My blog} 
  • Pray about mine and Race's future.  {Children, jobs, where to live, etc.}
  • Learn more about the Atonement and apply it to my life.

There are so many other things that I learned and felt. Now I just need to set some goals pertaining to all of these impressions! 


I love General Conference and I love being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These things bring me joy.
