Remember when Alma taught us that as we come to experiment upon the word it will enlarge our souls and enlighten our understanding and then it begins to become delicious to us? Don’t you think the "words" of conference do that same thing? I do. The older I get the more I look forward to and truly soak up the many delicious words from General Conference. Joseph Smith said that the doctrine of the gospel tastes good! And it does! In his famous King Follett sermon he said,
“This is good doctrine. It tastes good. I can taste the principles of eternal life, and so can you . . . . You say honey is sweet, and so do I. I can also taste the spirit of eternal life. I know it is good; and when I tell you of these things which were given me by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, you are bound to receive them as sweet, and rejoice more and more”
Love that!
I agree. I love Conference. I love hearing the messages that are just for me. :)
ReplyDeleteI love that quotation. It mixes some of the things I love most in the world: the Gospel and food. Bon appetit!
