Inspiration

The church held it's 176th General Conference this weekend. I was very happy that I was able to listen to all 4 sessions because this usually doesn't get to happen. I feel very blessed to be able to hear what the leaders of the church had prepared for us. I realized a few things about myself, my family, and my faith that I really needed to come to terms with. All in all it was wonderful and uplifting!

I had a thought in the first session on Saturday morning that inspired me. Here it is. "Choose you this day whom ye will serve. As for me in my house we will serve the Lord." I have heard this scripture many times before, but it was a great reaminder for me. It inspired me to change some ways of discipline, a few thoughts, and a few ways that we run our home. The last couple of weeks have been really hard. The kids have been really sassy, and down right mean. This makes for a mean mommy. I feel that I am always yelling at them, and telling then to stop what ever it is that they are doing. I hope that with some of the new ideas that I have had things will be a little bit easier. This house needs to be a happier place to be!

I feel very uplifted today, I just hope that as the week goes on I don't loose this feeling. There is nothing better than to get inspiration from higher up, the man that knows all. He knows what I am going through. He knows how I feel. He knows what is best for me! I will accept his advice ANY time!

The conference was wonderful and very uplifting for me. I am even more excited now to go to the temple.
