Talk analysis

Elder Richard G. Scott talked on the power of scripture in the Saturday morning session of conference. He is a fabulous man who spoke about an amazing thing:scriptures. He backs up his claim that scriptures are powerful by illumination to our minds, they can guide us, and we can receive inspiration from God through them.
Elder Scott said, "Their use provides a foundation of truth that can be awakened by the Holy Ghost." Learning from the scriptures can enlarge our minds and we can pray and ask God if they are true. This leads to guidance.
He says, "Scripture can calm an agitated soul, giving peace, hope, and a restoration of confidence in one's ability to overcome the challenges of life." They guide us by giving hope and confidence to know what we need to do to overcome hardships. This leads to inspiration to know what to do.
Elder Scott said, "...can help in time of need, give inspiration and comfort and be a source of motivation for needed change." They can motivate us to change, give us inspiration to know how to change. God is revealing to us how to get over trials and tribulations through scripture.
Overall, scriptures are an amazing tool that God gave us to become better. We can become better through the scriptures because they give us knowledge, guidance, and inspiration. When we have received those things, we can become true children of God.
