Thoughts from Saturday Afternoon session of General Conference this morning

When we have a testimony of the gospel, it is our responsibility to share it.
***
Throughout the scriptures, the Father has repeatedly introduced His Son and commanded us to hear Him.
***
Truth is sent "unto", not "into" our hearts (2 Nephi 33:1). It is up to us whether we choose to welcome the truth into our hearts.
***
Christ came to earth, first and foremost, to perform the atoning sacrifice. He also came to teach and to serve. In those things we can certainly strive to follow His example.
***
The leadership of the church follows a pattern set by the Lord.
***
There are many ways to begin and foster healing in our lives, but healing is only made complete through the atonement of the Savior.
***
Begin with the end in mind (like the pretty pictures of food in cookbooks that give us an idea of what we are working towards)!
***
Baptism not only cleanses, but illuminates the soul.
***
Enduring to the end is not a DIY project. We also need the Savior, the Holy Ghost and the community of Saints.
