Finding the One

In the first edition of Conversations on LDS Radio Sherri Dew interviewed Elder and Sister Bednar and asked them several questions about their background as well as their current work. Early in the interview Sister Dew asks Elder Bednar what he has learned since he has been called to the Quorom of the Twelve that he perhaps did not know before. His answer provides some great insight to the true mission of an apostle of Jesus Christ.

"Ive gained a much greater appreciation for how individual the Lords love for each of us is. Now, I knew that before but I've experienced it in a consistent and remarkable way in my service in the Quorum of the Twelve. Every place that we travel we have assignments that take us to various parts of the world, but its never the assignment, its never the function that's really the issue. Its to find individuals that the Lord wants to bless... This past weekend I presided at a Stake Conference in the United States. We reorganized the Stake Presidency, and that would seem to be the primary reason I was there for that assignment - it wasn't. There was a young woman, 18 years of age, that needed to visit with a member of the Quorum of the Twelve. So we accomplished that, oh and by the way we reorganized the Stake Presidency."
