Melon's Easter

I had an epiphany of sorts as I listened with Luke and Clint to Elder Uchtdorf’s words on "Patience" during the Priesthood session. It was not only the content of his talk that impressed, but also his perspective on The Church and The Gospel having grown up in a war torn Europe. Truly his life’s experience reflects a different view than my traditional Americana picture. This gave me a new appreciation for diversity of experience while finding universal comfort in the applicable consistency of The Gospel of Jesus Christ across the Earth and to all of God’s children.

Very interesting, especially since—much like the "canned food" Mormons—my wife comes from "water rights" Mormons.

Love your insight. I thought conference especially good the Spring. Uchdorft is always especially good. I love his metaphors and he definitely comes with strength from life. Luvmom
