General Relief Society Meeting: President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

        I didn't attend this General Relief Society Meeting, and actually I am not a person who enjoys attending conferences regularly. (haha I know this is not good..) Last week was the worst for me and I couldn't even handle my trouble. I didn't know what to do. I just needed to undergo all things and feel bad.. This was so frustrated. I just wanted to go back to Korea. That was what I thought every time. 
      
        I was thinking about my family and trying to focus on study again at that time. Suddenly, Maggie, my roommate, knocked the door and came in. She just asked me how i was doing and I.... cried. I don't know why I cried at that time but I just cried. She hugged me and allowed me to share my problem with her, and she let me know what President Uchtdorf said. 
       
        His speech has these five main concepts. 
  • forget not to be patient with yourself
  • forget not the difference between a good sacrifice and a foolish sacrifice
  • forget not to be happy now
  • forget not the 'why' of the gospel
  • forget not that the Lord loves you
        It made my heart being warm. I felt so sweet and it was sweet. I had felt that I was always alone and no one would listen my worries or my troubles. However, I should have remembered that the Heavenly Father loves me all the time. He is always with me and he always care about me. I can be happy with this only one reason. I really appreciated my roommates comfort, I really loved President Uchtdorf's speech and I Love our Heavenly Father.

    All of us feel alone sometimes. It is great to know Heavenly Father is always there, that we are His children, and that we can turn to Him. It is also good to have good roommates or friends who listen and can put their arms around us.
    Heather, know that we care about you and that you are not alone.
