So yesterday between conference sessions we drove up to Cascade Springs. I knew the leaves had begun turning and I wanted to see them before they all fell off. We watched most of the morning session before leaving, and listened to the last talk while we drove. We had a picnic lunch and hiked around the springs and pools until 2:00, then we listened to the first half of the afternoon session while we drove home. (well, some of us listened - some fell asleep.
Promptings FOR ME from Saturday's talks were:
* Increase my diligence and efforts in Scripture study - particularly the Book of Mormon,
* "Have you inquired of the Lord?" - seeking answers from the Lord to my questions or problems, instead of other sources.
* That happiness comes by living a Christ-like life
* Encourage my YW to learn about and participate in Family History
* Look up - look to God to lift us. (look up, cheer up, God want me to be happy)
*** Learn to master my TIME. Set goals, then master the skills to achieve the goal) Reminder that some distractions need to be turned to dust (as the seer-stone)
Although I had mixed feeling about the outing, since it is harder to focus and listen to the talks while driving, (Tim is the only one who can read/take notes, etc... while in a moving car. The rest of us get motion sick.) it was beautiful and a nice break from the routine. (and I rationalized that I can always re-listen & re-read)
