General conference notes

Saturday morning - watched from tabernacle
President Monson
Church has grown a ton
Nothing will stop this work
Seek after good things
There will be good things in these messages
They are inspired.
President Packer
Story of little boy with tin can at train station
Little boy starving that wanted the sacrament bread. Woman shooed him
away but what giid is the sacrament if we dont care for the poor?
President Packer held him on his lap.
President kimball said. "you are holding a nation on your lap"
Children are not thrown into endless torment. Missionaries have a
great lesson of hope. Priests of other faiths do the best with the
light they have. The fullness brings more hope.
Children are a heritage a blessing. They need two parents.
Better to not be able to have children than to be able and choose to not.
Nothing is a better sight than an eternal family.
Jesus set perfect example toward children
Parenthood is most important calling.
Spend time together as families. Family time is sacred time.
Cheryl Esplin. Primary Presidency
Holy ghost carries truth parents are to facilitate that.
Show children how to be kind and to pray.
Help them apply it in the moment.
Plan moments to teach and be ready to share at spontaneous
opportunity. Teach as a family and one-on-one. Believing a gospel
penguins takes seeing it in action.
Elder Hallstrom
Church and Gospel are connected but not the same.
Gospel is joyous plan by which we can live with god forever.
Gospel includes far more than public observances.
1 Deepen understanding of deity
2 Focus on ordinances and covenants. Keep them. Know their intent
3. Unite the gospel with the church
Elder Koehlker
Senior missionaries bring patience and stability
Younger missionaries bring power and energy.
Nurture others throughout your lives.
Avoid distraction. Have desire to learn.
Use God's power in the work by asking for it often.
Show love to the Lord and others. This is the root if all virtue.
God is always ready to hug us and tell us he loves us. He dealings
with us show that.
Elder Oaks
Atonement is greatest event ever
Focus of prophets and God's plan
Sacrifice brings blessings
Thousands of Christians have given their lives for their faith. Most
tragic were those who were persecuted by other Christians.
Donating life to service is even more noble.
Lives of service and sacrifice are the best symbols of faith.
Missionary service is powerful example.
Knowing what Christ has done for us is a powerful motivator.
President Eyring
Seek challenges as an opportunity to grow and prove courage. God will
always help us through our trials. Trials have a limit.
Faith takes time to build. Be patient.
Bigger challenges are always ahead.
Integrity creates solid ground under us.
Faith in Christ gives power to push forward.
His love never fails.

Elder Holland
Parable of the laborers
No one treated unfairly

V Why be jealous?
W
We compete against sin, not against eachother
Envy is like drinking pickle juice every time something good happens.
Be kind, rewind.
Don't be upset if the Lord is generous with others more than you. Just
be glad that he is generous.
Don't be offended.
You'll never sink below God's love
Elder hales
For the sacrament to be cleansing we need to ponder and prepare in
advance on our relationship with Christ. Teach children to study the
scriptures and prepare to administer and participate in ordinances.
Teach children to work and be self reliant
Don't live in regret.
Hold a temple recommend at all times
Elder Baxter
We can't make it all add up in life because we don't have all the numbers.
His mom had sheer Scottish grit. {••}. &$@#%
Elder Snares
Nourish your spirit an choose the right
Christ faced intense opposition and never gave up.
Elder Cook
Many in this world are tone deaf to sacred things. tree of life vision
predicted this.
Those who choose the right are in tune and gain higher ability to hear.
nursery leaders and scoutmasters have the brethren's love and thanks.
Avoid being judgmental of youthful mistakes instead of sinful
mistakes. Praying with children may be more important than any other
example.
Se je zgodilo
Even solid evidence can be ridiculed. A spiritual witness is necessary too.
Read the book of Mormon daily.
Activity with fingers while reading the book of Mormon
Elder Scott
Relationships can be strengthened through the veil when we remember
our covenants and to do what is right.
Seek revelation by being fit, calm, well rested, and good humored.
Record impressions.
Stay mentally and physically clean.
Humility is fertile soil for revelation.
Our heavenly father wants us to succeed.
He will help that happen.
Greatest happiness comes from following divine guidance.
BYU Devotional
Elder Stanley G Ellis First Quorum of the Seventy
Would I be thought of as a kind and helpful friend?
Story of Esther and the reminder it is to have courage. Pilate was
the opposite. He was only merciful when there was no cost.
Many things known and unknown.
There will always be surprises in life.
Long and short term plans change.
Won't plan on most of what happens but a lot of it will be good.
Seek the lord's guidance and follow the Spirit. If it is silent and
you are worthy. Continue with your plans. Do things the Lord's way.
Keep making plans. We need them to be guided, but don't ignore the
Lord in favor of old plans. Have a plan for all things you can.
Lord instructed saints that they would be in Nauvoo for a short time
but that they should act as if they'd be there for years. Settle in,
unpack, and be there. Don't be a floater! Be involved, grow, and
share.
Death and final judgment are sure to come someday. Have a plan: follow Christ.
Christ will always be just and merciful.
We judge ourselves
-by what we choose.
-standard which we judge/deal with others
-value others
No secrets in eternity
No anonymous trolls~
Imagine your judgment and prepare now
-repent and be spotless
Choose the right and be in control of yourself
Have the courage to choose wisely
Story of Esau being short-sighted
Don't trade blessings for pottage
There are eternal consequences
Our heavenly father knows and loves us
