Wilford Anderson. The music of the gospel. Sat PM.
I love this talk. It hit me hard, because for some reason I just haven't been feeling the joy in my life. There are moments, but the sad, angry, unhappy moments seem to outnumber the happy ones. I think right now it's cuz my unhappy times are fueled by unhappy boys. It seems worse than it is and makes it harder. I have to do the steps first, then teach my family-
We learn the dance steps with our minds, but we hear the music with our hearts. The dance steps of the gospel are the things we do; the music of the gospel is the joyful spiritual feeling that comes from the Holy Ghost.
The dance steps require discipline, but the joy of the dance will be experienced only when we come to hear the music.
"No power or influence can or ought to be maintained by virtue of the priesthood"-or cuz you're the dad, the mom, the biggest, or the loudest-"only by persuasion, by long-suffering, by gentleness and meekness, by love unfeigned; and by kindness" D&C 121:41-42
