Timely Council and words of hope from inspired leaders. General Conference is always so reviving. Everything about it--the messages, the music, just the sight of the leaders of Christ's Church-- lifts my heart. My mind was surprisingly clear as I contemplated my job at home and at Church. Most of all, I'm so grateful for the peace I feel. The world paints the future of our children and that of our country as something insecure and dismal. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is sure and bright. Come what may in any political, financial, or even physical arena, I am confident that we can have peace and joy in our souls.
Memories of my great grandmother, Mama Jo. Today would have been her birthday. It is the first such anniversary that she is not with us. I'm grateful that I got to spend so much time with her during my childhood and in college. I have thought often of her today.
