Journal Entry

General Conference seemed pretty routine. All good info and instruction. No news regarding forming a new First Presidency except that nothing will happen until President Nelson's funeral is over which is tomorrow. President Oaks seemed a little shakier than expected but handled everything very well. He specifically announced no new temples for now indicating that there are many temples announced that have not even begun construction yet let alone completed. He left open the future announcement of new temples. 

Come Follow Me 

D&C 111:11 Therefore, be ye as wise as serpents and yet without sin; and I will order all things for your good, as fast as ye are able to receive them. Amen.

"Let me suggest that many of us typically assume we will receive an answer or a prompting to our earnest prayers and pleadings. And we also frequently expect that such an answer or a prompting will come immediately and all at once. Thus, we tend to believe the Lord will give us A BIG ANSWER QUICKLY AND ALL AT ONE TIME. However, the pattern repeatedly described in the scriptures suggests we receive “line upon line, precept upon precept,” or in other words, many small answers over a period of time. Recognizing and understanding this pattern is an important key to obtaining inspiration and help from the Holy Ghost."

Elder David A. Bednar, Apostle
