“Be Still, and Know That I Am God” | David A. Bednar | April 2024 General Conference

We can be still and know that God is our Heavenly Father, we are His children, and Jesus Christ is our Savior.

Elder David A. Bednar speaks at the 194th Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints held on April 6-7, 2024.

When I feel the Holy Ghost, my depression, my ADHD, and all of my worries, all just melt away. It is as if the weight on my heart has been lifted. It makes me feel like I am not alone. This is a reminder to myself that I need my spiritual nourishment. Just as you can only live for so long without food and water, life becomes worse without focusing your heart, might, mind, and strength on the Savior. It is a challenge for me to make a goal and stick to it. I think I can do it, but I need to let go of a few worldly things, like messing with my laptop, or my graphing calculator "collection". They are just tools. I need to let these worldly desires go. Once I do that, it might get easier to get back on and stay on the covenant path.

I love my church. All I ever want is to return to my heavenly temple. I know this church is true. So deeply. If I wasn't in church. I would be in a deep down depression

I’m teaching this in RS this coming Sunday. I’m going through a lot since my dad passed away, and living in a broken home. I needed this reminder and this week I will try to make my home a place where I can be still and be at peace ❤️

Thank you Frere Bednar. Two wonderful points I'll be pondering for awhile. First, "Be STILL and KNOW that I AM GOD". At times I get busy with work and duties and need to slow down or rest. By taking the time to stop, BE STILL, and take some precious moments to remember both my Father in Heaven and my Saviour, Jesus Christ, will help reset my thinking and my day. Second, to make the Saviour the Rock 🪨 of our foundation. I have worked in building construction and being able to connect to a "firm rock", or "bedrock" is very, very important. Appreciate your many discourses and thank you. Paul Morrison, Canada.

Be still and know we must be have a foundation anchored in Jesus

[cheverechat]

That experience with the journalist was made possible by Elder Bednar's intention and reverence. We can create powerful things with the Savior when we're willing to act with effort on specific promptings and general correct principles.

The message I needed to hear. God truly is aware of our lives and as Elder Bednar shared, we may be confused by the circumstances in our life, but there is no need to fall into despair. We are never alone! Our Heavenly Father watches over us and grants us an individual 'stillness of the soul' through the knowledge that we are his children and we have a saviour in Jesus Christ. 'we can be blessed to do and overcome hard things'. So whatever hard things you are facing right now, you can do it with God. 💛
