To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
In a world that steals dreams, and fosters shallow happiness, our General Young Women Leaders have offered us some safeguarding secrets that are worth having ears to hear. I know they spoke to the Young Women specifically, but these words are for all women. I feel a little weird going to this meeting, because I […]
Elder D. Todd Christofferson gave a talk last conference (Nov. 2009) that deserves some further analysis. He spoke on the internal control vs the external control of our moral agency. When I look at how the world views things it occurs to me the mindset is totally different; another counterfeit to uncover. I see the […]
Back in 1985, Pres. Hinckley gave a talk on “Ten Gifts from the Lord”. As I read through these gifts I was reminded of the spiritual purposes of Relief Society, and my blessings of its membership. YOU HAVE THE GIFT, THE OPPORTUNITY, AND THE RESPONSIBILITY OF DOING GOOD. Our charge, according to Jesus Christ himself, […]
Elder Richard G. Scott’s talk on Spiritual Guidance, this past General Conference, was full of practical directions that even I can follow. With the General Relief Society Presidency asking us to seek our own personal revelation as we strengthen our ward and stake Relief Societies, as well as ourselves, I felt this was timely information.

There has always been a problem with modesty…and there always will be, because Satan knows just how to grease the wheel. We raised two girls and four boys.

This blog has been an amazing ride for me as various talks, ideas, and histories have come to me on such a regular basis. I am never at a loss for what to post here. I hope what I share with you is interesting and helpful to you in some way. I now present to […]
Elder Holland gave a talk called Terror, Triumph, and a Wedding Feast at a CES Fireside a while back. His words have rested on me for days. I just need to share them with you. First of all, Terror: We live in a world that is “Terrible”, and there is certainly reason to fear. All of […]
General Conference: our most up to date scripture. What we need to hear right now. The question we need to be asking ourselves is-What do I do with what I just heard? It’s hard to put all the talks into a nutshell, but what I got out of Conference is that we need to show […]
These thoughts are taken from two different talks with the same title. Sis. Julie B. Beck, First Counselor in the YW General Presidency (at the time), gave her talk in May 2004 and Sis. Cheryl C. Lant, General Primary President, gave her talk in Nov. 2005. Both talks give us important and inviting thoughts on […]
If you missed the General Relief Society Meeting, you will want to see it, or read it, in its entirety at www.lds.org. I have to be honest here; I love how they are talking about the history and legacy of the Relief Society. They are making sure we understand that the Relief Society works hand […]
