Here's the deal:
I am kind of a sinner (in lots of ways, but especially) in that I kind of really hate it when people try to get all preachy and religious on blogs. I know it's awful of me. But it just bugs. When people get all preachy on their blog, I'm thinking:
A) They're trying to get points by how spiritual they can come off
OR
B) They had a really awesome experience but they don't know the time and place to share it
And I'm guessing that my hatred simply comes from the fact that I have a really hard time letting my spirituality get across via the inter-web. I mean, it is just really hard for me to figure out how to give my feelings any justice without sounding cheesy. You know what I'm saying? Of course you do.
So, while I won't be whipping out a lengthy rendition of my testimony, I just wanted to say:
Gosh, I love general conference.
I mean, seriously. For a short weekend, God is letting us know what he's been thinking about. And, somehow, in all those messages we can gain a lot of guidance and revelation. What's more is that we can get a tiny little glimpse into how much our Heavenly Father loves us.
And that is just pretty awesome.

Jerk! That was directed at me, huh?? Ha ha. I can't help it if I'm a Molly Mormon! ;) Love the new background, by the way!
I know how you feel about sharing testimony online.. I never know how people will take what I write, or if I will think it sounds cheesy the next day. It's a fine line.
And, General Conference was great.
True story. :)
I totally get what you mean. I have a hard time with it too.
I missed waaaay too much of gen. conf. this year because of the hooligans, so I'll be playing catch-up for the next few months in the evenings. yay! for online streaming!
Agree with you all the way, Kim.
But don't worry, you put it very well.
Dear Kim,
I agree with the internet world spiritual thing. And with how great General Conference is. That being said, I think I will turn my blog into a "look at my awesome spirituality" central. You're welcome to be jealous.
Just kidding.
Lots of love,
Kelsey
