En el primer discurso de la primera sesión de la Conferencia General Semestral N° 194, el presidente Jeffrey R. Holland, presidente en funciones del Cuórum de los Doce Apóstoles, testificó que Dios escucha cada oración y responde a cada una de ellas según el sendero que Él ha trazado.
Aunque las oraciones no siempre son respondidas de la manera que las personas esperan, cada oración es escuchada y respondida. Incluso Jesucristo, que era perfecto, oró fervientemente para poder buscar al Padre.
El presidente Holland también testificó de la realidad de la vida eterna y de la necesidad de prepararse para ella.
President Holland also testified of the reality of eternal life and the need to prepare for it.
Cuando Cristo venga, “Será necesario que nos reconozca —no como nombres en una lista de miembros en un registro de bautismo descolorido—, sino como discípulos totalmente comprometidos, que con fidelidad creen y que guardan los convenios”, dijo.
