General Conference

Sunday morning I left my house at 5 AM, in the middle of a snow storm to head to Salt Lake City to attend LDS General Conference. Of course, because it was so early the snow plows weren't out, but we had left early so we were there in plenty of time. We got our seats, right in front of where the Prophet enters the building, just 4 rows back. Since we were so far forward, we were actually even with the seats on the stand, and had a wonderful view of the 1st Presidency and the council of the 12. Conference was wonderful, but one moment stands out far above the rest. During the rest song when everyone stands to sing, there I stood looking down the row of our leaders, all standing singing praises to our Heavenly Father. It was a profound experience for me as, once again the spirit testified of the Holy callings of each of those men, called at this time to lead the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I was so overcome that I could not sing, just stand there and feel that wonderful affirmation. How truly blessed we are! I am so grateful for the friend that last week said to me "I have 2 tickets for Conference, do you want to go with me!" YES, I want to go!
