I Want A Tophent!

Every morning my 2 year old daughter would declare this as she sat down for breakfast. I had no idea what the heck a tophent was! Through sad tears of misunderstanding and a lot of thoughts and guessings by me, I finally figured out what this word meant. A tophent is a 'Talk from the Prophet.' Honestly, I think it's a wonderful condensed version of what it is and feel that my daughter is a bit of a genius for coming up with it. You see, I had missed watching some general conference talks from the October 2015 General Conference and had been catching up by watching them on the iPad during breakfasts with her. Once I was caught up, that breakfast routine stopped, and that is when my daughter started protesting that she wanted a tophent.

I can't fully express how much I love general conferences and words from our modern day prophets through the talks they give. No matter the session, no matter the prophet giving it, I always gain something needed for my soul. Whether it's humility, gratitude, hope, peace, strength, comfort, security, ambition, motivation, or just a greater perspective, I receive it. 

I am so grateful for modern day revelation that is given through prophets of god that can give us the knowledge and insight to aid us in understanding more of Christ's teachings. To live in an era where prophets exist and can help guide us to where we desire to be is truly blessed. It's being given a flashlight in the dark night of the world.

Heaven's slice is prophets and modern-day revelation.
