Did anyone else absolutely love this talk from General Conference? I did! Sister Eubank's talk was based upon this quote from President Kimball, "Finally, my dear sister, may I suggest to you something that has not been said before or at least in quite this way. Much of the major growth that is coming to the church in the last days will come because many of the good women of the world. . . will be drawn to the church in large numbers. This will happen to the degree that the women of the Church reflect righteousness and articulateness in their lives and to the degree that the women of the church are seen as distinct and different - in happy ways - from the women of the world. Among the real heroines in the world who will come into the church are women who are more concerned with being righteous than with being selfish. These real heroines have true humility, which places a higher value on integrity than on visibility. . . It will be . . . female exemplars of the church [who] will be a significant force in both the numerical and the spiritual growth of the church in the last days."
When I heard that I knew I wanted to be one of those women. A driving force for the church. These five things on the list are the way to go, and I will strive to live by them everyday.
