Homecoming Talk
Einen schönen guten Morgen, liebe Geschwister! ~ This is the first time in 18 months where I've stood in front of a pulpit and spoken in English. Quite frankly, it's a little nerve-racking, considering today I won't be able to blame any mistakes I make on a language barrier. But I take comfort in the fact that there are so many beautiful, smiling faces in the crowd. I've prayed for guidance when I speak today, and I trust that the Spirit will be able to touch your hearts in some way. I chose as a theme, "The Love of God". Love, as defined in Gospel Topics, "is a feeling of deep devotion, concern, and affection," and it states that "the greatest example of God’s love for His children is found in the infinite Atonement of Jesus Christ." There are so many facets to this gem of truth that I won't even begin to try and examine each of them today, as much as my heart aches and yearns to do so. Instead, I will focus on how I came to learn this
