Bonnie Oscarson - General Women's Meeting

[pam]

We are all daughters of the same Heavenly Father which makes us sisters.

This combined assembly is without a doubt the most glorious group of sisters in the world.

Sisters are there for each other through thick and thin.

The adversary would have us be critical or be judgemental of each other.

We as women can be extremely critical of ourselves.

There is nothing worth losing our sisterhood over.

We truly need each other.

We let self imposed barriers keep us from enjoying associations.

Those more mature can have a great influence on the younger generations.

There is no age barrier when it comes to Christlike service.

Before girls reach the age of 18, they need mothers and other women to testify of the Relief Society.

Let us all reach out to help out others through the milestones in our lives.

The errand of angels is given to women.

We must stop concentrating on our differences and look to what we have in common.

We have living prophets to lead and teach us.

We have the gift of the Holy Ghost.

We are blessed to work hand in hand with righteous brothers.

We have access to temple ordinances.

We have each other. Sisters in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

I love that her talk focused so much on the things we do have instead of the things we don't. We need to be reminded of that.
