Conference!‏ October 6, 2014

Ok, can I just say that CONFERENCE WAS AMAZING! It was so great! I loved it! The even cooler thing is that we had three investigators come! :) We were so stoked! We also had to travel to the stake center with was really far away. But they still came! Man they are doing so well! And the thing is. All of our progressing investigators are teenagers and should be getting baptized this week and the next! They are so golden! haha, anyways conference was so good. I don't think I can choose a favorite. I loved them all! There was a lot about prophets. And really how lucky are we to have a prophet. I just feel soooo bad for everyone I talk to that think they have the true church. You can just see the emptiness in their eyes! And I just want to shove the truth into them. But I cant! Haha PEOPLES AGENCY DANG IT! haha no just kidding! It is so interesting though so see what other people believe... I don't understand how they could believe it! And a lot of times it is so sad! I am so thankful for the knowledge that God is our Loving Heavenly Father. Oh ya mom... HAPPY BIG 50! :) Haha I cant believe your 50 years old! :) hehehe I love ya mom! :) You are the best! So, I was thinking a lot about the talk of Elder Holland. I guess I do have a favorite talk. Haha I guess not my favorite but the one subject I have been thinking a lot about. I have been thinking a lot about caring for the poor. And the part that hit me in Elder Hollands talk was when he said. Oh they probably did it to themselves. Well so what if they did it to themselves. Arent we all beggars? Man that hit me. I am guilty of saying that. Not just about the poor, but the unhappy, or the miserable. I have said, they did it to themselves. But it isnt our job to judge if they did it to themselves or not. Our job is to help everyone no matter what happened. And I love how he said. I don't know how we are to answer the call to help the poor. He didn't give us a law, he gave us the option. What are you going to do to help the poor. Or the needy. Man that was some good food for thought. Conference has changed my life. I am so thankful for the prophets, and that we have this gospel in our lives. I am so thankful to be on this mission, and learn the things that I am learning. I know that this church was restored through the prophet Joseph Smith. And I know that the Book of Mormon is true. My little seed of a testimony is growing. I know that what the apostles said is true. About things that are blurry will become clear. And that there are so many things that can be made known unto us. I know that this Gospel is the only true source for happiness. I love you guys! I love all of lifes experiences. The good and the bad! Have a good week! -Elder Aussy
