I was so very grateful to read the words of the solemn assembly that happened this past Saturday morning. I have felt sad for days because for the first time ever, Jacob and I slept in and missed the first ten minutes of conference. (It had been a very hectic and tiresome week. Ben was sleeping and the older kids were happily watching a fun television show. They didn’t even realize that conference had started.) I felt horrible and was beyond sad to miss this incredible event. I also felt so bad that I had not prepared myself in every way to be available to feel the Spirit that would be present at this occasion.
This afternoon, as I started to read the words of the solemn assembly, I was absolutely overwhelmed and the Spirit testified to me that President Thomas S. Monson is the prophet of the Lord on the earth. I know. I know without question. I know without doubt. I am so grateful.
