Blog-imony

Okay, so I am not positive but I recall hearing a talk this weekend during General Conference about bearing your testimony all the time and I remember something about blogging your testimony.

Well to be completely honest I am not sure how well this is going to go. I am not ashamed of my testimony in the least bit. I just worry about peoples feeling to much. So I am going to ignore how other people are feeling about this subject and just let everyone know how I feel about it. 

Again during Conference, John told me how in Priesthood session President Monson spoke about the Book of Mormon, and that he told everyone that if you haven't read it yet you need to read it. That right there got me thinking. I don't think that I have ever read the Book of Mormon from cover to cover. And I told John that and he told me that we would have to change that starting tomorrow (Monday) I didn't even think anything of it, I was just planning on reading a little tonight while I was working. But this afternoon after we got done working out and got cleaned up, John had his scriptures out ready for us to start reading. So we started reading the introduction and took turns until we had completely read the whole intro. While we were reading I had the most amazing spirit come over me. It was like I was getting this huge hug and it was taking my breath away. (that made it a little difficult to read) But if I didn't know that the Book of Mormon was true before, I know with an assurity that it is one-hundred percent true. I know that I have struggled with these little doubts that are put in my head every once in a while. But I am always really good about being able to stop them before they get to big. But after reading today, there is no doubt in my mind that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the true and everlasting Gospel of Christ. I know that if I can keep the commandments and someday (soon) make the Temple covenants and always strive to be more like Christ in everything I do I will be able to sit across from him in the judgement seat and know that I have done everything in my power to return to my Father in Heaven and have relied on the Lord for everything that I am not yet capable of doing. I am so very blessed to have a fiance who is so in tune with the Spirit. I really don't know what I would have done if he had not come into my life at the time that he did. He really is the most amazing person I have ever met and I know that I can see myself with him Forever!! and I thank Heavenly Father for him everyday. I know now that if I ever have any doubts in my mind or just questions that I can go to John and he will be able to help me understand. I know that there are Living Prophets on the earth today and that they have been called by God and that the words that they speek to us are directly from the mouth of  God. We need to listen to what these messengers have to say and not just only say that we will do what they ask. But actually DO IT!!! I Bare witness to these things that I know they are true. and I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
