Peter, 4.18.11

hola!
wow! conference sounded amazing! its so fun to be close to the spirit and to be able to learn and grow through our inspired leaders and also by the spirit. we had stake conference yesterday also. it was AMAZING! all i can say is that the spirit is the true teacher and that as we have it with us we will truly be able to learn and grow. People have always said they felt the speaker was talking directly to them. i don't think I've every really felt that. but now when the spirit has been more in my life, through scripture study and always striving to become better. one of the speakers titled his talk "today is the first day of the rest of the rest of your life". it is a topic that really hit me. its reminded me of the scripture that says 'today is the day'  one thing that i have been working on is living in the now and that we must change today. we cannot say tomorrow we'll try but  we must begin by changing now. this talk really helped me realize that it is now that we must choose to follow the Savior 100%. I've gained a testimony that we must continually take small steps and eventually we will be what the Lord wants us to be. the church is true. Jesus Christ is at the head of it. there is a prophet, seer, and revelator on the earth today and we can receive the strengthening power of Christ's atonement in our everyday lives.  
love ya
