Relief Society lesson

I was called as a Relief Society teacher a couple months ago . I teach the 2nd Sunday of every month. I decided Im going to write down the things I learn from each lesson every month.
This weeks lesson is Chapter 11 "The Organization and Destiny of the True and Living Church".
I havent taught this lesson yet(I do on Sunday) but have been studying the last few days and I just get overwhelmed at what an amazing person Joseph Smith was. I dont know about you all but when I was 14 I wasnt even thinking about the things he was. I heard Pres. Hinckley say one time that when he thinks of all the wonders of the world he thinks one the greatest was the courage of a 14yr old boy named Joseph Smith.
Isnt that true? Obvisously he had great faith to begin with, to even have the thought to pray to Heavenly Father. He knew Heavenly Father would help him and direct him. We are so lucky to have a modern prophet who leads and guides us through the will of our Heavenly Father.
In the lesson there is a quote by Joseph Smith that says:
"You know no more concerning the destinies of this Church and kingdom than a babe upon its mother's lap. You dont comprehend it.....This Church will fill North and South America--it will fill the world".
One of my favorite parts of General Conference is when the church statistics are read. Its amazing to hear how much the church grows.
