Convention - Day 3

My gems from today's convention meetings on September 8 are listed below:

• God may not save us from experiences, but will save us in the experiences.
• Be watchful for the needs of other around us.
• Be careful, one could say something that is true, but it could be unkind.
• A prayer: Do for me only what I need, but do to me anything that makes me more like the Christ.
• New grapes only grow on the new growth. Being cut back is better that being cut off.
• The only thing we own is our own soul. All else will be taken from us.
• Spiritual direction is not in us naturally. We need a guide.
