Thoughts and feeling received during today's Stake Conference meeting:
Sometimes it is lonely being the only person in your Stake with your last name. Counter point, it is easy to get a cushion seat for one when you come in late. No plastic chairs today!
It requires a lot more attention to follow along with a talk that is being translated. However the spirit is still very strong in the room.
The power of the Holy Ghost is strong, it knows all languages and it's reach goes beyond any borders or boundaries that we human beings create.
The church is made up of people who are courageous and willing to stand against all odds for something they believe in. How blessed are those that can be a part of this church with their families, how strong are those that can stand for their personal beliefs without all the support of their loved ones.
Temple attendance and renewal of covenants help with all trials and temptations we face in our lives. During times of trials more frequent attendance and focus on convents will help relieve the tensions that arise.
Licking the surface of a watermelon, I'll use that idiom some day, thanks to President Walch for sharing.
