5.9.15

Uchtdorf. Sustaining of Church officers. Sat PM.

I'm doing the 40 days & 40 nights General Conference challenge, and this is today's talk. It's not really a talk but it was a new experience for a lot of us and it was life changing moment.

This conference, instead of a unanimous sustaining of the Prophet and Apostles, there were members there who opposed them. It's not a vote, the Apostles are called of God, not man. But it hurts my heart to know there were members there who opposed the Prophet of God.

I was there when members of our faith opposed His chosen mouth-piece, it was only a handful among the thousands in the Conference Center. And when we, as a congregation, sang so fervently, with so much flourish, with so much love & adoration, "We thank thee oh God for a Prophet" oh it was glorious!

It made me look at how I sustain the Prophet of God daily, how I stand up for him & with him. I know now how much I love him, the Apostles and this gospel, I never knew how I loved them until then.
