Do Your Part

We are quickly approaching Conference weekend! As I was considering what I need to pray for before this conference I was thinking about sustaining the leaders of the Church. We get to sustain our leaders during each conference, those in our ward and stake with each new calling, and confirm that we sustain them during temple recommend interviews. What does it mean to sustain someone? I looked at churchofjesuschrist.org, and it says "when we sustain someone we are keeping covenants" and that sustaining means "we promise to support the person called and to do our part as well". To do our part as well. That struck me. As I have read through my scriptures I have also noticed a few invitations for us. Let the spirit in. Let our hearts be glad. Let the gospel work within us. This is all up to us. We have to put in effort. We have to do our part. As we get closer to Conference, I am going to work on accepting these invitations. I am going to do my part. I am going to proudly sustain the Church leaders and do my best to actually hear their words and apply them in my life.
