Finding Joy In The Journey

So, I have been listening to General Conference talks for several weeks while I’m at work and it has been a great blessing. The words of the Lord’s called prophets and servants have truly had a great affect on me. There are so many that have meant a lot, but the #1 talk that has made a difference is from President Thomas S. Monson. It is from the October 2008 Sunday morning session, entitled: “Finding Joy in the Journey.” I know that each talk can have different meaning to different people, and that the messages reach us in different ways. However, if you love your family and friends, then this talk applies to you. If you have never heard it or read it, then you should. If it’s been a while since you’ve heard, or read, it, then listen to it, or read again. It is such great counsel. And again, it has meaning for anyone who has family and friends, whether you are a member of the LDS or church or not. I don’t mean to get on a soapbox or anything, but I just know that everyone could benefit from President’s Monson’s words. And of course, many of you already know that, but some might not, so here is a link: http://lds.org/conference/talk/display/0,5232,23-1-947-26,00.html.
If you would rather listen to it or watch it, you can use this link. Just scroll down to the Sunday Morning Session, about in the middle of the page, and choose your fancy: http://lds.org/conference/sessions/display/0,5239,23-1-947,00.html
Sorry, no funnies this time, but some good ones are forthcoming, I promise.
