Am I giving the Lord equal time?

I just watched the following broadcast. I was looking for a transcript because I tend to learn better by reading but I still learned and was reminded about quite a bit. If you haven't already watched it - I would encourage you to do so.


Elder M. Russell Ballard's CES address November 7

Some of the key points I pulled out:

• Our generation has a mighty work to do. We are here on this earth, at this time to achieve that. God has given us the tools necessary.
• Give the Lord equal time. We have many demands on our time. And we also have many distractions. Are we spending too much time online, on social networks, or doing other "extra" things while ignoring our obligations, personal scripture study, journal writing, prayer, service opportunities, etc?
• We should have hope. Never before have such marvelous things come to pass. There are strides in medicine, learning opportunities and more.

I probably learned more but it's getting kind of late so I can't remember them all. I will have to wait until the transcript is out so I can reread and learn a bit more.
