Hey y’all!
[Summary at the very bottom cuz I know not everyone has time or the attention span to read this.]
My talk was great. Like actually I think k it was pretty good. The only thing is I talked about 8 minutes longer than necessary.
For my talk talk I wore my contacts. Usually I wear my glasses, this is relevant, I pinky promise.
Brother Catlett, the ward mission leader in the Fayetteville 4th ward (my ward), came up to me after my talk and said I was Just like super man, before with my glasses I was Clark Kent and then I took my glasses off and became Superman. High praise. He also asked for a copy of my talk.
But actually I think I just blacked out a little and read what I had written. Thanks for the prayers and words of wisdom my talk rocked.
In my talk I talk about President Nelson's 2022 talk “The Power of Spiritual Momentum” he talks about 5 things we can do to increase our Spiritual Momentum and continue on the covenant path. He talks about the following:
1.Get on the covenant path and stay there.
2.Discover the joy of daily repentance.
3.Learn about God and how He works.
4.Seek and expect miracles.
5.End conflict in your personal life.
So I talked about all that and made it all personal and meaningful, all that jazz.
I'm now the designated driver. I'm pretty alright though, I haven't bumped into a single thing and not a single thing has bumped into me. That's all I'll say there.
We had exchanges this last week. I went with Sister Peterson we came together from the mtc. we are both in training and so it was bit tough because neither of us have this super figured out yet but we had fun together and we were pretty productive so I'm proud of us.
Yikes y'all I just do not have the energy or time to write a super email. Here's one of my favorite parts of my talk:
Prophetic promises have power. You will be prepared to perform temple work after baptism as you act on these prophetic invitations. As you work on these things you will have greater strength to resist temptation. You will have more peace of mind. You will have freedom from fear and greater unity in your families. These steps will not only bless us but also our families.
Temples bless all of Heavenly Father's children. Temple worship helps us realize that it doesn't matter if you bring a family name or do a temple name because all of us are part of God's family so either way it's a family name.
In the temple our families get to be sealed together forever. Forever. Heavenly Father loves us and He knows how important families are because we are His children and He wants all of us to return to Him someday. Through temple ordinances families can be together forever.
I know that families can be together forever, through Heavenly Father's plan. I always want to be either my own family and the Lord has shown me how I can. The Lord has shown me how I can.
Love y’all!
Still holding to the rod,
Sister Owens
Summary: This email consists of me saying yup following Christ's footsteps is hard sometimes because Christ didn’t walk an easy path.
