Backman had that honor, and as he reflects on his life’s journey, he recognizes the Lord’s guiding hand protecting him and leading him through various opportunities and challenges. This blog post explores the powerful message of gratitude, service, and devotion exemplified by Elder Backman’s life.

Today’s blog post is deeply inspired by the October 2020 General Conference talk “Waiting on the Lord” by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland. In these challenging times when we are swamped with a constant barrage of instant gratification, the talk serves as a soulful reminder to reevaluate our relationship with time, hardship, faith, and patience.
In today’s reflections, I find myself leaning heavily into the wisdom found in the General Conference talk ‘The Joy of Service,’ delivered in October 1984 by Elder Russell C. Taylor.

Elder Taylor intricately weaves scripture and personal experience to illustrate that serving others isn’t just a duty; it’s a privilege that enriches our lives.
Today’s post is a deep dive inspired by a stirring General Conference talk entitled “Moving Closer to Him” delivered by Elder Craig A. Cardon back in October 2006. Elder Cardon’s message eloquently illustrates the transformative power of the priesthood, a divine authority that not only performs miraculous deeds but also aids in our personal growth and refinement, drawing us closer to God.
