I have always loved to go to general conference sessions. I learn a lot and renew my devotion to my Savior. Today was wonderful. I remembered all day that the 2009 Young Women General Conference of the Church was to start at 7pm. I wasn't feeling well so I took a nap and woke up from it quickly and asked Katie what time it was. She said that it was 6:44 pm we had 16 minutes to get dressed and to the church thank goodness we live so close. We were there by 7:03 a little late they were already singing the opening song.
I really enjoyed the talks. They encouraged the girls and mothers to return to virtue. It is imperative it our times to be virtuous as mothers to teach our daughters to be virtuous also. How hard it is to remember that many of the things considered normal and acceptable in today's world are so far off the mark of virtue. I renewed my desire to be more virtuous and have decided to work on the Young Women Value program with my daughter Alecia and then as many times as necessary to do it with each of my other 4 girls. I love them soooo much and want them to understand that they are daughters of a Heavenly Father who loves each one of them personally. He wants them to be the best that they can be and desires for them to be examples to His other children who do not have the same standards as they have. What a great responsibility I have as there mother to teach them to follow in the Saviors footsteps along the paths of Righteousness. It is my continued prayer that they will stand firm, steadfast and immovable in keeping the commandments. I love them so much and pray for guidance as I try to direct them in their lives.
