sheri dew

going to school at BYU I have had quite a few unique opportunities to listen to some pretty influential LDS leaders speak in person. today i had one of those opportunities. thanks to someone with cool connections, sheri dew came and spoke to the relief societies in my stake alone. so like, 400 single women, the stake presidency, and sheri dew. mind blown. i felt pretty special. i talked to my mom later and she was like "whaaaaa? she's my favorite church writer of all time!" i'm guilty of not having read any of her books yet, but if i ever find time, i will.



i know that each woman listening to her speak learned something a little bit different from what i did, and that we all heard something that we really needed.

No one can ever take my place. I can't compare my weaknesses to others' strengths. I've been sent here with specific things to accomplish. The Lord knows me, my mission, and exactly what I need to accomplish my mission. I am a child of God. Obedience brings blessings. Exact obedience brings miracles.
