Thoughts on How I Will Benefit from LDS General Conference

I have really enjoyed the conference yesterday and today. I am grateful to have this opportunity to hear and see the instruction from apostles and prophets.

However, they give instruction on so many different subjects that I find it a bit overwhelming. Since I want to do what the Lord has suggested to me through his servants, and I don't feel capable of suddenly living up to all of the instruction that has been given (too many changes to handle all at once), I have decided that I will try the following approach;

1. Prayerfully select a subject that was discussed in conference, asking Heavenly Father what he would have me change or improve on at this time.
2. Study the talks that were given on that subject, and pray and ponder about how the Lord wants me to apply that instruction in my life.
3. Take the appropriate action or start the appropriate habit to follow the promptings received in step 2.
4. When I am satisfied for the time being (I may come back to it again, later) with my progress on that subject, it will be time to repeat the process.

Hopefully this will allow me to take the fullest advantage of the conference in learning and in improving my life and in serving those around me, in a way that I can handle, without taking on more than I am able at one time.
