Here is the best thing I heard (What?), saw (Eye.), and read (Read.) this week, as well as the best idea (💡) I developed.
What?
followHim Podcast – 3 Nephi 12-16 – Dr. Bradley R. Wilcox:
- “How do I know if it’s my thoughts and feelings, or how do I know if it’s from God? And I think we learn the answer right here in 3 Nephi because they heard the voice, they didn’t recognize it. Verse 4, ‘Again, they heard the voice.’ And then verse 5, ‘And again, a third time they heard the voice.’ Look at the consistency.
“Joseph Smith said this: ‘Revelation occupies my mind and presses on my feelings.’
“It’s not every thought and every feeling that is the spirit, but I’ve sure learned to pay attention to the consistent thoughts and the consistent feelings.”

My 9-year-old’s son first interception of his flag football season, and his excited reaction afterwards. His coach’s wife summed it up best: ‘I have goosebumps!’

“How I Bring General Conference Insights into My Life Each Day” by Jani Eitelgeorge – September 2024 Liahona
- “My process is not the only way to study conference. I offer it as a suggestion as you make your own plan to implement the teachings of general conference in your life. Here’s how it works for me:
“I listen to each talk and write the important insights that touch my heart, as well as thoughts I receive from the Spirit. At the end of each session, I listen to the Spirit as I highlight one or two things from each talk that I feel I need to work on or that will remind me how to become more Christlike.
“Then I choose 26 highlighted thoughts and assign one a week until the next general conference. I type the thoughts into a list and assign each a Sunday date. I place this list on my bathroom mirror as a reminder. I also assign these weekly thoughts on my phone calendar. Each Sunday I receive a reminder to start a new focus. This thought will be at the front of my mind as I pray each morning for help throughout the day. Each night, I review with Heavenly Father how I did that day.”
💡
Develop a complete list of invitations from the October 2024 General Conference, and then create a weekly schedule for taking action on these invitations. Include the focus invitations for that week in each What? Eye. Read. 💡 Newsletter.
