Post favorite thoughts from Conference

Saturday April 1st 2006:

Saturday Morning:

president Monson talked about keeping our bodies (temples) free from certain influences. He named things like pornography, excessive debt, immodesty, immorality, and vulgar language. He also stressed with equal importance the necessity of positive influences. He specifically named keeping our temples/bodies clean and fit. Working on fitness is something that I struggle with in this fast paced world!

Saturday Afternoon:

Elder Perry discussed the responsibility of the parents to bring children to sacrament meeting in a timely and reverent fashion. He talked about the sacred privilege that we have to renew our baptismal covenants on a weekly fashion. As a mother of young children, this is something that I definitely need to work on. We have dedicated many family nights to principles of reverence and we even hold 'mock sacrament meetings' where someone gives a talk--so that Campbell can practice sitting quietly for some length of time. However, we have a long way to go before we find the magic solution for timeliness and reverence! Hopefully, this talk will provide us with the needed inspiration.

oh well--dad needs the computer! Post your thoughts!!!

Love, Brittan
