Well, General Conference has past and now it is time to whip into action and make some changes and apply all of that enthusiastic energy and desire and motivation we all felt just a week ago. Has it already started to die for anyone? Have you already forgotten all of the things you were so excited to implement and do better in? I find it so easy to forget or to lose motivation to actually DO the things we felt and were taught.
Some conferences I do well at reading most, if not all, of the talks and other conferences, well...I may not read much of any of them at all. This time around our little family has decided to make our Family Home Evenings very much centered on the General Conference talks and I am excited.
We're making a schedule to help us along but we will not be hitting all of the talks (at least not during FHE) due to the number of weeks available before next conference. On my husband and my weeks to be in charge of the FHE lesson we will focus on a talk. The person in charge must read it ahead of time and share their thoughts or a quote or two as well as something to draw the attention of our 2 1/2 year old. Hopefully whoever is not in charge will have read the entire talk that week as well but we are not making it a requirement. Then on our sons weeks we will have a lesson that comes from The Friend magazine, which he really seems to enjoy.
So that is our plan. What is your plan to keep the conference messages alive until next April arrives?
