My testomony

One thing that truly defines me is my beliefs and my faith. I am a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints. And I love Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ very much. I always have had the need for things to logically make sense to me, which can be a blessing and a curse. I remember one particular Sunday while sitting in church two women got up and began to sing a song. I did not know the song and they sang it in a different language, so of course I could not understand a single word. Yet, I was hit so fully in my heart. It was as if the words they sang made so much sense to me. And I could feel what they were singing was true and beautiful before God. This song left an everlasting impression in my heart.
            I know without a doubt that Heavenly Father lives and loves all of us. He has had his hand in my life on countless number of times. He is always there for us, just waiting for you to reach out and except his hand he has out screeched towards us.                                   
           I also know that God is the same now as he was than. He still speaks to us and loves us. He wants us to return to him. If we put our faith in him he will guide us to our full potentials. “The Lord really is the answer to it all. He’s the one who can open up your potential and teach you who you are and what you ought to do.” Elder Gene R. Cook
