Me Thinks

We have a prophet on the earth today!  What a great blessing that is!  Every six months, we listen to what President Monson has to say in General Conference. We consider what he has to say to be of great importance, for he is the mouthpiece for the Lord.  Some of us are there to hear him speak in person, but thousands of others are watching on TV or listening on the radio.   Here are a few things that President Monson said in the October General Conference:

Some of the things that

 President Monson 
 said in General Conference October 2013

·       Now is the time for members and missionaries to come together, to work together, to labor in the Lord’s vineyard to bring souls unto Him.

·       I have asked our members in the past to contribute, as they are able, to their ward missionary fund or to the General missionary Fund of the Church.  The need for help is ongoing.

·       Let us reach out to those for whom we are responsible and bring them to the table of the Lord to feast on His word and to enjoy the companionship of His Spirit.

·       This should be our purpose—to persevere and endure, yes, but also to become more spiritually refined as we make our way through sunshine and sorrow.

·       I thank you for your prayers in my behalf and in behalf of all the General Authorities and general officers of the Church.  We are strengthened by them.

·       May your homes be filled with love and courtesy and with the Spirit of the Lord.

·       May you constantly nourish your testimonies of the gospel  that they will be a protection to you against the buffetings of the adversary.

·       May we show increased kindness toward one another, and may we ever be found doing the work of the Lord.
