What would you do right now if you knew Jesus was going to speak in the next General Conference…
But He said to NOT travel to find Him?
You had to stay at home.
How would you prepare mentally and spiritually?
When I know something spiritual is about to happen, my preparation makes a huge impact on my experience.
I’ve had stake conferences where I’ve embraced preparatory challenges or talks to study from my stake leaders.
I’ve also had stake conferences where I completely ignore them because I’m too busy.
And guess which stake conferences have been more meaningful to me?
The ones where I put in the hard work and sacrificed my personal time to prepare!
When Christ told the Nephites that He would be returning the next day, they all spread the word and went to work.
“An exceedingly great number, did labor exceedingly all that night, that they might be on the morrow in the place where Jesus should show himself unto the multitude.” (3 Nephi 19:3)
Preparation can be hard work.
It can be a sacrifice.
But putting in the effort to prepare for experiences with Jesus will always be worth it!
Happy Studying!
