Just
a quick note to express my appreciation to those who participated in the
General Conference we had this past weekend.
There were some marvelous messages from men who have sought out what we
need to hear.
Here
are two in particular that I found very pertinent.
 |
| Elder Oaks |
Elder Dallin H. Oaks was spot on with his
message about contention. This is
especially true, considering the Supreme Court decision to not consider the
appeals of 5 states pertaining to same-sex-marriage. It will take all we have to stay out of the
fray in this regard.

| Elder Holland |
Elder Holland’s message on caring for the
poor and needy was provoking (at
least to me). There are
many areas in this regard that need to be fixed in my heart. That whole judging thing is so difficult but I
recognize it as a weakness and vow to fix what is broken.
I
recommend both of these messages to anyone – member of the Church or not – who
would like to understand how the Savior would handle things today.
