Nuggets of Wisdom!

The best part of the weekend?
No, it wasn't the food.

It was the four hours of listening to inspired church leaders on Saturday and Sunday!

Wow!
There were so many nuggets of truth.

Going back through my notes, almost every speaker inspired me some way.
I can't wait until the talks are published in The Ensign next month!

But I might not be able to wait.
And you can check out some of the talks here.

Here are a few of the gems I picked up -

"Scriptures are tools to help us be successful in life.
They are stalwart friends not limited by geography or calendar.
Scriptures can calm an agitated soul."
Richard G Scott

"Seek for wisdom instead of power"
Barbara Thompson

"Service is doing the right thing at the right time; without delay.
Love all but never forget the one."
Jose Alonso

" We are nothing, but to God, we are everything."
Dieter Uchtdorf

"Let us be as quick to kneel as we are to text.
We must dedicate our time to the things that matter most."
Ian  Ardern

"In the information age - the message of the Gospel is a pearl of great price."

L. Tom Perry

And those were just a few thoughts from Saturday!
Each talk was inspirational.
There is no way that I can pick a favorite.

I agree, it was a wonderful Conference! I found each talk to be inspiring as well. I wrote down some of those same quotes in my own notes! I now feel spiritually fed and like I'll be fine until April's Conference when I need re-fueling!
