Sketchbook: A better talk

Wasn't that an amazing conference? There were so many good messages, and I took several notes of things I need to pay attention to. 

I loved Elder Farnes' story with Pres. Oaks: "That's what we do."

Elder Renlund: "You are not an asterisk."

Elder Kearon: "Live in spiritual lift."

Sis. Chibota's sawubona.

Pres. Eyring: "Of course it's hard! It's a test!"

Elder Kyungu: "Bury the language of contention."

Elder Gong: "Why did the temple workers cross the road?"

And so much more! What were some of your highlights?

I heard that!

Conference starts tomorrow! I'm looking forward to hearing the messages and getting a spiritual boost!

You likely know that I take notes during each of the sessions and post them afterward. I also keep my sketchbook nearby to write down any ideas or thoughts that pop into my head while I listen.

The spirit speaks to us in a language we can understand. That got me thinking, do musicians hear/feel music as they listen?

I see a weekend full of meetings

One of the LDS influencers I follow on social media had a recent post about "Predictions for General Conference." A lot of times people in the rumor mill come up with reasoned or outlandish takes on what announcements may be made in General Conference. They said that their prediction was that we'll have a chance to strengthen our testimonies about Jesus Christ and be encouraged to become better people.

The words "predictions about general conference" made me think about this. It's probably a good candidate for staying in the sketchbook, but it's been years since I've drawn a fortune teller!

Tune in to general conference this weekend. Feed your soul!
