He was our visiting authority in the November Stake Conference.
HE is someone I don't remember the name of.
Towards the end of his talk, he gave six pieces od advise for families to follow, but unfortunately, I don't remember them. Probably, temple, family prayer, etc.
But, one I distinctly remember because
I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANYONE SAY THIS BEFORE;
SIT TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE CHAPEL!
Since he said that nearly six months ago, I have thought of it frequently because I so much see the wisdom in this advise.
I look around on Sundays and see the families sitting up front and I realize they are truly the faithful ones. They are definitely more engaged in listening to the speakers.
I have always been a back of the chapel sitter in most of my life...but now I realize
as I say to myself....
OH, IF ONLY!
Because, yes, I honestly do believe that makes a difference in a person's listening, engagement, attention, feeling, activity level.
Isn't it interesting that such a seemingly small thing would and could make a difference to a family's activity....
But, I believe it does.
And, so I say,
IF ONLY.....
