     “Conference….18 months down & still going strong! “

April 4, 2016

Happy Conference Week peeps!

      I left my journal at our apartment....so today's email is going to be pretty short. This weekend we were able to watch Conference at our Ward Mission Leaders home with John, Martha & baby Tremayne! My heart and spirit are so overwhelmed with gratitude to my Heavenly Father for the love He has for ALL His children. He has blessed us with a loving Prophet, President Thomas Spencer Monson. President Monson has put every ounce of his being into serving the Lord. In his biography video called "On the Lord's Errand" which can be found on the LDS Gospel Library app, he says at the end something that is so simple.  It may not seem significant to others, but when I hear our dear servant of the Lord say this, it brings tears to my eyes. He says he wants the Lord to know if he ever needs someone to run an errand for him Tom Monson will run that errand for him. It is obvious to anyone who has tried to follow God that it is not always easy.  We came here to earth knowing it wouldn't be easy to choose the right.  As President Monson said in conference; "We must choose the harder right". He also said "If we Choose Christ, we will have made the correct choice". Following the prophets’ counsel is always the correct choice because His counsel is the Lord's counsel.

I know Thomas S. Monson is the prophet on this earth today. I know he has been called of God to help direct us back to him. I promise as a representative of our Savior, Jesus Christ, that if we follow what the prophets and apostles have directed us to do we will become closer to our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.  Our lives will be happier and more blessed then they are now or that you could even imagine.  I know that this is Christ's true church here on the Earth today. I know God loves each and every one of us and speaks to us through his servants. Study their words and you will find answers that you have been longing to know. I say these things in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

             Have a happy week I love you all!
