Tonight was the Relief Society's annual broadcast. It always comes the week before fall General Conference. What a blessing it was for me to go tonight. The first three talks by the Relief Society Presidency were really good: Do it as if He were here, have more charity, make and keep sacred covenants. I appreciated their messages.
But then Pres. Uchtdorf spoke, and he must have written his talk specifically for me. He talked about the Forget-Me-Not flower and used it as a metaphor for life.
The first 'forget not' was to be patient with myself. {{sigh}} What I am doing is just good enough and I am still loved no matter what.
Make good sacrifices, be happy now, remember the 'why' of the gospel, and don't forget that the Lord loves me.
Sisters, wherever you are, whatever the circumstances may be, you are not forgotten. No matter how dark your days may seem, no matter how insignificant you may feel, no matter how overshadowed you think you may be, your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you. In fact, He loves you, with an infinite love.
—President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Thank you President Uchtdorf. I don't feel 100% yet, but I feel a lot better.
