1975

this year I am reading all the talks President Monson gave in General Conference 
here are my thoughts on the talks he gave in 1975

April 1975
The Way Home

This talk reminded me of a talk I had just read from the latest session of conference entitled, Bearers of Heavenly Light by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf. Both talks touch on the truth that light will always replace darkness. 

With the first vision, the restoration of the gospel dispelled the gloom. 

If we follow Christ, then we can dispel any darkness that may be in our lives. 

"Open your minds to the word of God. Open your hearts, even your very souls, to the sound of that still, small voice which testifies of truth."


October 1975
The Faith of a Child

I would encourage everyone to go and read this talk because it is so sweet. President Monson ditched the talk he had prepared and felt inspired to talk about the faith of a child instead. 

As I learn to teach in the savior's way, my relief society president told me not to be afraid to put my lesson aside if the spirit is pulling in a different direction. That terrifies me, but I know that President Monson was inspired to do so and maybe we will be too.
