This last week was kind of long... hahaha but it was so good. We met some amazing people in the Visitors Center. I had a slight panic attack realizing how fast time is ticking and I want more than anything to just STOP TIME. Can someone please let me know when they invent something that can do that for me? lol for reals.
But anyways. Conference was the absolute best part of this week! I had a lot of spiritual experiences listening to our prophet and apostles speak. I know for myself that they truly are called of God. I will shout that from the rooftops so everyone can know it. How blessed we are to be on Earth at this time!!
I just want to share a quote from a talk I read in this month's ensign!! It talks about a race in ancient greece where the runners had to keep their torch lit throughout the race. If the light went out, even if they finished first, they couldn't win because the goal was to keep it lit.
btw,
"As long as we continue to rise up and move toward our Savior, we win the race with our torches burning brightly. For the torch is not about us or about what we do. It is about the Savior of the world. And that is a Light that can never be dimmed. It is a Light that swallows the darkness, heals our wounds,and blazes even in the midst of the deepest sorrow and unfathomable darkness. It is a Light that surpasses understanding. May each of us finish the path we have begun. And with the help of our Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ, we will finish joyfully and with our torches still lit."
I know that this is true. Keep your torches lit. Don't give up. Don't slow down.
