Amy Baldwin - Dammeron Valley Ward

It was great to rub shoulders with the other speakers (at the Women's Conference). I have tried to incorporate their words into my daily habits. I truly want to strive to have a daily devotional and feast upon a sacred time with my Heavenly Father, by so doing I will be able to be a stronger light for others to see.

I had an experience a couple of weeks ago. I attended the Diamond Valley 2nd ward and as I entered the chapel and sat in the back, immediately sweet sisters came and greeted me. I felt so welcome and loved. Thank you Diamond Valley 2nd for being an example of a "Pure in Heart". Later in the month I was in relief society in my own ward and there were sisters who I did not recognize. I thought to myself, "I am not going to welcome them because they are probably visitors and I do not have time to worry about getting to know them when they are leaving today." Then the relief society president hugged these visitors and warmly welcomed them. I remembered how I had felt in the Diamond Valley 2nd ward, and committed to change my approach and welcome anyone, and try to see people as the Savior sees them.
