It's Now October!

I just loved General Conference! it was so nice to be able to sit in my own home in my recliner chair and listen to conference. And I did stay awake. Thro' all of the sessions. The messages were all so timely. It was so nice to see our prophet President Gordon B. Hinckley and see him looking so good. I love to hear him talk and my heart within me burns as I listen to his messages. The Spirit bore witness to me that these men are prophets of God and what they were saying was truth as I listened to them. I literally felt spiritually fed. Elder Shane Bowen's talk was interesting in that we had walked around that Freeman Park just this past summer. It was close to a two mile walk from where we parked. It is truely a beautiful park. However, I did not know that it was built on a landfill. I didn't know that the airport was either. I enjoyed Elder Dallin H. Oaks talk as well as his brother's. I also enjoyed Elder Holland's talk. I tho't it was very fitting as the last major talk of the conference. I really enjoyed all of the given talks. They all had something to say to me. They strethened my testimony and made me want to become a better person. Now that my health is improving and has improved I'm looking for ways to serve others more instead of being served. I'm praying the Lord will let me know just what he wants me to do. We do go to the temple weekly. And we could go to the Family History Center but we haven't gotten there yet. I'm coming down with a cold today so will take it easy but I hope to find something soon.
