My Conference Weekend

I had a wonderfully busy conference weekend. First I want to say that The Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is true. It is the complete truth here on earth!!! I just love being a member of this church. It brings me great joy. Anyways so my region of Young Single Adults were asked to participate in singing in the free speech zone before the first session of Saturday's session. I said yes, but then thought well really I just ignore the protesters and just thought it to be silly, so I wasn't going to go. Friday after returning from my fave place on earth, the temple, I had three messages on my machine about going. People wanted rides and the Stake person wanted me to count how many showed up. I took this as I needed to go. So I went and it was a truly wonderful experience. I realized that we were not there to drown out the protesters, but to help the members maintain the Spirit on their way to conference. I got teary eyed singing the songs I Know That My Redeemer Lives and Joseph's Smiths First Prayer. Much of my own testimony is of these songs say. I do know that my Redeemer lives and He is my best friend. I always will say that I know Joseph Smith saw the Living God and Savior that glorious day in the Sacred Grove. It was wonderful to sing my testimony of the Gospel to thousands of people. After we got to go to the first session and had some nice seats. The talks were wonderful and direct which I feel we need. It is amazing to gather with thousands of LDS people in one room feeling the Spirit so strongly with the prophet and the apostles! A truly amazing experience. The rest of the conference was great and spent with family. What a truly great blessed life I have!!!
Other news in my life, hit a stumble with losing weight. My body is not helping and losing fast. I hate how I lose a lot then stop. It is very frustrating, but I need to keep pushing myself. It just sucks to kick my butt as hard as I do and the results are slow!!! Oh well the best things are worth fighting for right? Well I keep saying it is in this situation, but man am I frustrated.
So once again the life of Amy is pretty amazing!!
