from Anchored · host Roseanne Dawes and Stephanie Francom
What does obedience in covenant living really mean? In this LDS General Conference message, we explore how to feel God’s love, strengthen faith like Peter, and recognize the Lord’s blessings when we choose to obey.In this episode, we reflect on a powerful message from Stephen C. Barlow about what it really means to show our love for God through obedience.Are we obeying just to “check the box,” or are we learning to recognize the Lord’s love in return? When we train our hearts to look for His hand, we begin to see that obedience isn’t about perfection—it’s about connection.We also talk about Peter walking on water. He only had a little faith. He stepped out. He got scared. He started to sink. And yet, the Lord was immediately there to lift him up. That is who our God is. That is how He meets us when we try.When we give Him just a little… He gives us so much love in return.✨ In this video, we discuss:• How obedience opens us to God’s love• Why small acts of faith matter• How the Lord meets us in our weakness• Learning to recognize His blessings in daily life• Growing spiritually through covenant keepingIf you’ve ever wondered whether God really sees your effort, your prayers, and your imperfect obedience—this message is for you.👉 Like, subscribe, and share to stay anchored in Christ and grow in faith together.#LDSFaith #GeneralConference #CovenantPath #FeelGodsLove #FaithInChrist #Discipleship #AnchoredInChrist #SpiritualGrowth #trustingod 0:00 – Finding Peace in Jesus Christ Through God’s Love0:21 – How Showing Love for God Helps Us Feel His Love0:34 – Offering Our Sacrament and Our Hearts to the Lord0:51 – What Are We Willing to Place on the Altar?1:20 – Trusting the Spirit and Recognizing God’s Timing1:25 – Peter Walking on Water and Trusting the Savior2:39 – How Small Acts of Faith Invite God’s Power2:56 – Loving God Without Expecting a Reward3:19 – Obedience, Patriarchal Blessings, and Spiritual Growth3:53 – Obedience Trains Our Spiritual Perception4:19 – Finding God’s Love Through Family History Work4:45 – Experiencing Miracles Through Service and Faith5:26 – Recognizing God’s Love Through Spiritual Gifts5:38 – Staying Grounded and Anchored in Jesus Christ
