Elder Gong speaks in conference as a Seventy and speaks about the wonderful blessings of the temple. He speaks about conversion and covenants and how remaining faithful to each, can bless generations to come.

• I gratefully testify that an eternal perspective of gospel conversion and temple covenants can help us see rich blessings in each generation of our forever families.
  

He speaks about performing a sealing in the temple and the eternal reflections that were there as they looked in the mirrors in the sealing room.

• I recently stood in a house of the Lord with a worthy couple there to receive blessings by covenant. I invited them to make their first honeymoon last 50 years, then after 50 years to begin their second honeymoon.
  
• I found myself looking with this beautiful couple into the temple mirrors—one mirror on this side, one mirror on that side. Together the temple mirrors reflect back and forth images that stretch seemingly into eternity.
  
• Temple mirrors of eternity remind us that each human being has “divine nature and destiny”; that “sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally”; and that, growing together in love and faithfulness, we can give children roots and wings.
  

We each have several roles in life and the mirrors of the temple reminded Elder Gong of his role as parent, grandparent, etc. As he looked in the other mirror, he was his role as son, grandson, etc.

• In temple mirrors of eternity, I began to understand my wife and myself as children of our parents and parents to our children, as grandchildren of our grandparents and grandparents to our grandchildren. Mortality’s great lessons distill upon our souls as we learn and teach in eternal roles, including child and parent, parent and child.

He speaks about the Savior and the great example of Father and Son relationships that He has with His Father in Heaven.

• From the councils in heaven, our Savior sought only to do His Father’s will. This pattern of Father and Son can help explain the paradox “He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.” A Lamb innocent and pure, our Savior weeps with and for us. When we always remember Him,1 He can stand with us “at all times and in all things, and in all places that [we] may be in.” His “faithfulness is stronger than the cords of death.”
  

As we draw near to the Savior by keeping our temple covenants, the Savior draws us closer to His Father. We can have perfect trust in our Heavenly Father to fulfill his side of temple covenants.

• In drawing us to Him, our Savior also draws us to our Father in Heaven. While some things are imperfect on earth, we can trust our Heavenly Father to complete “redemption’s grand design, where justice, love, and mercy meet in harmony divine!”

Elder Gong concludes with his testimony of the temple blessings that bless our families for generations to come.

• I humbly witness: God lives. He “shall wipe away all tears from [our] eyes”—except the tears of joy when we see through temple mirrors of eternity and find ourselves home, pure and clean, our family generations sealed by priesthood authority in love, to shout, “Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna.”
  

Elder Gong's reflection on the temple mirrors reminds me of the great blessings I have had in my life to attend many open houses of various temples. As our kids were young, we made it a goal to attend the temple open houses as they were places our children could see how special, sacred, and beautiful the House of the Lord is. I have looked in those temple mirrors with my children and reflected on the many blessings that we have had together in the temple. I am grateful for many generations of my family that have left a legacy for my family over several generations.

Elder Gong speaks as a newly called and ordained apostle of our Savior Jesus Christ.  He uses his few minutes of time to talk about covenants and the atonement and how they both help our lives.

• Together, our covenants and our Savior’s Atonement enable and ennoble. Together, they help us hold on and let go. Together, they sweeten, preserve, sanctify, redeem.
  

He speaks about the wonderful blessings of having temples in our lives.  He says that work there can only be done there and that this sacred work binds us to our ancestors for time and eternity.

• Sacred covenants and ordinances, not available anywhere else, are received in 159 holy houses of the Lord in 43 countries. Promised blessings come through restored priesthood keys, doctrine, and authority, reflecting our faith, obedience, and the promises of His Holy Spirit to us in our generations, in time and eternity.

Elder Gong pledges his life to the Savior's mission for him and shares his love for his family, fellow members of the quorum, and to all church members.

• This day I humbly pledge all the energies and faculties of my soul, whatever they be or may become, to my Savior, to my dear Susan and our family, to my Brethren, and to each of you, my beloved brothers and sisters.
  

He shares his testimony of the Savior as this is his newest responsibility.

• This is Easter Sunday. I reverently witness and solemnly testify of the living Christ—He who “died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven.” He is Alpha and Omega—with us in the beginning, He is with us to the end.

Finally, he speaks about his testimony of living prophets.  He encourages us to follow the guidance of President Nelson.

• I testify of latter-day prophets, from the Prophet Joseph Smith to our dear President Russell M. Nelson, whom we joyfully sustain. As our Primary children sing, “Follow the prophet; he knows the way.”

I look forward to learning from Elder Gong in the future.  He is a great man that has dedicated his life to the building up of the kingdom of God.  I know he loves the Savior and as he serves, I look forward to his continued teaching.

Elder Gong is a member of the Presidency of the Seventy. He speaks about the covenants made when partaking of the sacrament.  Specifically, he speaks about our commitment to "always remember Him."

• Each week, in partaking of the sacrament, we covenant to always remember Him. Drawing on the nearly 400 scripture references to the word remember, here are six ways we can always remember Him.
  

The six ways we can remember Him are outlined with addition comments he made during his talk

• First, we can always remember Him by having confidence in His covenants, promises, and assurances.
  
• Second, we can always remember Him by gratefully acknowledging His hand throughout our lives.
  • The Lord’s hand in our lives is often clearest in hindsight.
  • We can remember those who give us a chance, and a second chance, with honesty, kindness, patience, and encouragement. And we can become someone others remember when they most needed help. Gratefully remembering the assistance of others and the Spirit’s guiding influence is a way we remember Him. It is a way we count our many blessings and see what God hath done.
• Third, we can always remember Him by trusting when the Lord assures us, “He who has repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more.”
  • Once we repent and priesthood leaders declare us worthy, we need not continue to confess and confess these past sins. To be worthy does not mean to be perfect. Heavenly Father’s plan of happiness invites us to be humbly at peace on our life’s journey to someday become perfected in Christ, not constantly worried, frustrated, or unhappy in our imperfections today. Remember, He knows all the things we don’t want anyone else to know about us—and loves us still.
  • When trust is betrayed, dreams shattered, hearts broken and broken again, when we want justice and need mercy, when our fists clench and our tears flow, when we need to know what to hold onto and what to let go of, we can always remember Him. Life is not as cruel as it can sometimes seem. His infinite compassion can help us find our way, truth, and life.
  • If we have unkind feelings, grudges, or resentments or if we have cause to ask forgiveness of others, now is the time to do so.
• Fourth, He invites us to remember that He is always welcoming us home.
  • When you are ready, please open your heart to the Book of Mormon, again, for the first time. Please pray with real intent, again, for the first time.
  • Prophets ancient and modern implore us not to let human foibles, faults, or weaknesses—others’ or our own—cause us to miss the truths, covenants, and redeeming power in His restored gospel. This is especially important in a church where we each grow through our imperfect participation.
• Fifth, we can always remember Him on the Sabbath through the sacrament.
  • We remember Him when we pray over our fields, our flocks, and our households and when we remember the needy, the naked, the sick and afflicted.
• Finally, sixth, our Savior invites us to always remember Him as He always remembers us.
  • At times in history, mortal men have been executed by crucifixion. But only our Savior, Jesus Christ, embraces us still carrying the marks of His pure love. Only He fulfills the prophecy of being lifted up upon the cross that He might draw each of us, by name, to Him.

We covenant each week that we will take the Lord's name upon us and always remember Him.  Elder Gong gives us some great guidance on how we can do this.  I know if my life, I tend to do good for a couple days of the week but around the middle of the week, I need that spiritual recharging that I get on Sunday.  I have found that listening to conference talks, studying my scriptures, and listening to uplifting music have been ways for me to remember Him throughout the week until I get to Sunday again.  It is good to learn from each other so if you have a minute, please share what you do to always remember Him throughout the week in the comment section.  I look forward to hearing what you do and how I might adopt some of those ideas into my life.  We are all on this journey together, we should help each other along the way.
