Melissa and Leann discuss how to seek the Spirit in our lives through active listening and how Heavenly Father can help us if we are willing to hear Him.
Ponder Questions:
Do I have “ears to hear” personal revelation?
Am I acting on the personal revelation I am receiving?
Am I asking for direction, then listening to hear?
How does the Spirit speak to me?
Am I preparing my heart and mind for General Conference?
What does the Lord have for me now?
Have I written out my conference questions?
Invitation:
Take the time to prepare before General Conference to receive His messages.
Write your questions down, study the scriptures and pray.
