I learned from a youth's talk that in order to make my worship more worshipful during Sacrament Meeting, I need to think about the meaning of the words of the hymns. I need to pay attention to them. I need to sing them as praises or as prayers into God. This is something I'm going to try harder to do. 
I also had a day vision about me as a mother a few years down the road and my kids asking me why I read he scriptures each day. Instead of giving them a list of impersonal reasons why we should read the scriptures, this is what my day vision showed me to say: "My reason is different every day. Today is..." Hopefully, this will show them that some days I read them to get strength. Some days for more patience. Some days because I love God. Some days because I need answers. Some days because I'm preparing to teach. I want to be authentic to them. I can't wait to have conversations like that with my children.
