8 miles in 7:23 pace Did some strides mid-run. Achilles felt okay (at least not as tight as last Monday). I really really enjoyed watching General Conference (Church-wide broadcast for all members of the LDS faith) this past weekend. I heard lots of great reminders and experienced couple of big ah-ha moments. The most impressionable one being during a discussion I had with Aaron after he got home from the Priesthood Session Saturday night and told me about President Monson's talk on keeping the Sabbath day holy and the blessings of doing so. I think I've become a little lazy about my Sabbath day observance over the past number of months but when I heard what our Prophet had to say regarding this doctrine it was a good wake up call. Aaron and I had some very cool, meaningful discussion and made a resolution to do better at keeping the Sabbath day holy (in a myriad of ways) from now on. Then our decisions and resolutions were confirmed by President Eyring's Sunday Morning talk about Faith and the promise that the Lord will provide a way. I'm SO grateful for these inspired men and the guidance I receive from them. Looking forward to the November issue of the Ensign magazine so I can read and re-read these great talks and others. |
