One of my favorite talks at General Conference was The Music of the Gospel by Wilford W. Andersen. It was fabulous. If you haven't read or heard the full talk go HERE.
Here are some of my favorite quotes I highlighed from this talk:
We learn the dance steps with our minds, but we hear the music with our hearts. The dance steps of the gospel are the things we do; the music of the gospel is the joyful spiritual feeling that comes from the Holy Ghost. It brings a change of heart and is the source of all righteous desires. The dance steps require discipline, but the joy of the dance will be experienced only when we come to hear the music.
If our children learn the dance steps without learning to hear and to feel the beautiful music of the gospel, they will over time become uncomfortable with the dance and will either quit dancing or, almost as bad, keep dancing only because of the pressure they feel from others who are dancing around them.

In our lives, we have to align with the correct frequency in order to hear the music of the Spirit.
It won’t come all at once. As every accomplished musician knows, it takes diligent practice to perform beautiful music.
We must displace the darkness by introducing light.
If you’re not hearing the music of the gospel in your home, please remember these two words: keep practicing. With God’s help, the day will come when the music of the gospel will fill your home with unspeakable joy.
I can't believe it's almost time for General Conference again! So exciting!
