Listen to The Promptings

This post is based on a talk from L. Tom Perry of October General Conference last year. The talk is called "Finding Lasting Peace and Building Eternal Families." 
I love a quote from General Conference, and if you can't see the Image that has the quote, it says "We must never let the noise of the world overpower and overwhelm that still, small voice. - L. Tom Perry."

I will share with you some of the things that I liked throughout this talk.

"For behold, again I say unto you that if ye will enter in by the way, and receive the Holy Ghost, it will show unto you all things what ye should do” (2 Nephi 32:5).

"We certainly have been warned of events that we will be facing in our day. Our challenge will be how we prepare for the events the Lord has said are surely still to come.

Many in our worried society understand that the disintegration of the family will bring only sorrow and hopelessness into a troubled world. As members of the Church, we have the responsibility to preserve and protect the family as the basic unit of society and eternity. The prophets have warned and forewarned about the inevitable and destructive consequence of a deterioration of family values.

As the world continues to watch us, let us be certain that our example will sustain and support the plan the Lord has designed for His children here in mortality. The greatest teaching of all must be done by righteous example. Our homes must be holy places in order to stand against the pressures of the world. Remember that the greatest of all the blessings of the Lord come through and are given to righteous families."
